The JWST/NIRSpec view of the nuclear region in the prototypical merging galaxy NGC 6240
Matteo Ceci, Giovanni Cresci, Santiago Arribas +9
Merger events are thought to be an important phase in the assembly of massive galaxies. At the same time, Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) play a fundamental role in the evolution of t…
Unveiling the Fast Acceleration of AGN-Driven Winds at Kiloparsec Scales
Cosimo Marconcini, Alessandro Marconi, Giovanni Cresci +18
Supermassive black holes at the centre of galaxies gain mass through accretion disks. Models predict that quasi-spherical winds, expelled by the black hole during active accretion…
Milky-Way-like stars in a galaxy core 8 billion years ago revealed by gravitational lensing
Quirino D'Amato, Filippo Mannucci, Alessandro Sonnenfeld +40
The assembly of stellar-dominated cores in elliptical galaxies is key to understanding how cosmic structures evolved. Gravitational lensing offers unique insights into the nature o…
Unveiling hidden active nuclei in MaNGA star-forming galaxies with HeII4686 line emission

Galaxy morphologies at cosmic noon with JWST: A foundation for exploring gas transport with bars and spiral arms
Juan M. Espejo Salcedo, Stavros Pastras, Josef Vácha +22
The way in which radial flows shape galaxy structure and evolution remains an open question. Internal drivers of such flows, such as bars and spiral arms, known to mediate gas flow…
Doubling NIRSpec/IFS capability to calibrate the single-epoch black hole mass relation at high redshifts
Eleonora Parlanti, Bartolomeo Trefoloni, Stefano Carniani +6
The recent discovery of a large population of overmassive black holes (BHs) in the early Universe challenges the validity of the BH-host galaxy coevolution framework. However, the…
