Supermassive black holes and nuclear star clusters in galaxies: constraining formation and co-evolution with SHARP and MICADO
E. Dalla Bonta', E. Portaluri, C. Arcidiacono +7
Nuclear star clusters and supermassive black holes are the dominant compact components in galaxy nuclei. They can coexist within the same system, and their relative prominence trac…
Variables in S-PLUS: I. Multiband period-luminosity relations and reddening maps of the Magellanic Clouds using classical Cepheids
Debasish Hazarika, Carlos E. Ferreira Lopes, Márcio Catelan +12
Aims. Classical Cepheids (CCs) are fundamental standard candles for the extragalactic distance scale through their period-luminosity (P-L) relations. Although well calibrated in br…
Bulgeless Evolution And the Rise of Discs (BEARD) I. Physical drivers of the mass-size relation for Milky Way-like galaxies
C. Marrero-de la Rosa, J. Méndez-Abreu, A. de Lorenzo-Cáceres +20
In the standard cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology, the existence of massive pure-disc galaxies remains challenging within the hierarchical framework and is key to understandi…
Bulgeless Evolution And the Rise of Discs (BEARD) III. A numerical simulation view of satellites around Milky-Way analogues
Salvador Cardona-Barrero, Jairo Méndez-Abreu, Adriana de Lorenzo-Cáceres +17
. The existence of massive disc galaxies with little or no bulge challenges conventional cold dark matter model, which typically favours dynamically hot central structure…
Bulgeless Evolution And the Rise of Discs (BEARD) II. The role of mergers in shaping the Milky Way analogues in TNG50
Yetli Rosas-Guevara, Jairo Méndez-Abreu, Adriana de Lorenzo-Cáceres +20
We study the formation and evolution of bulgeless galaxies within the Milky Way-Andromeda analogue sample of the TNG50 simulation. Through kinematic decomposition with Mordor, we i…
Caught in the web: galaxy mergers along cosmic filaments
Carolina Dulcien, Yara L. Jaffe, Jacob P. Crossett +31
Galaxy clusters grow through the accretion of galaxies from groups, filaments, and other clusters. During this process, galaxies may undergo pre-processing in lower-density environ…
Archaeological investigation of galaxies' evolutionary history in the cosmic middle ages
Anna R. Gallazzi, Stefano Zibetti, Mark Sargent +14
The cosmic Middle Ages, spanning the last 8-10 Gyr of the Universe, is a critical period in which massive early-formed systems coexist with global star formation quenching in less…
Consensus based Algorithm for Nonparametric Detection of Star Clusters (CANDiSC)
C O Obasi, J G Fernandez Trincado, M Gomez +14
Context: The VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) and its extension (VVVX) are near-infrared surveys mapping the Galactic bulge and adjacent disk. These data have enabled the di…
The spatial distribution of dwarf and giant galaxies in and around Virgo cluster
Nelvy Choque-Challapa, Rory Smith, Iván Lacerna +2
The Virgo cluster is one of the closest clusters to us where we can further study the evolution of galaxies, with several infalling substructures and several filaments around it ha…
Targeting cluster galaxies for the 4MOST CHANCES Low-z sub-survey with photometric redshifts
Hugo Méndez-Hernández, Ciria Lima-Dias, Antonela Monachesi +54
The evolution of galaxies is shaped by both internal processes and their external environments. Galaxy clusters and their surroundings provide ideal laboratories to study these eff…
Faint galaxies in the Zone of Avoidance revealed by JWST/NIRCam
J. L. Nilo-Castellón, M. V. Alonso, L. Baravalle +12
The Zone of Avoidance (ZoA) remains one of the last frontiers in constructing a comprehensive three-dimensional map of the Universe. Galactic extinction, stellar crowding, and conf…
Properties of Barred Galaxies with the Environment: II. The case of the Cosmic Web around the Virgo cluster
Virginia Cuomo, J. Alfonso L. Aguerri, Lorenzo Morelli +2
Context. Bars are elongated structures developed by a large fraction of disk galaxies in their central few kiloparsecs. However, the bar formation process is still not fully unders…
SDSS-V Black Hole Mapper: The Index Diagram as a tool to disentangle the influence of the Host Galaxy in Quasar spectra
C. A. Negrete, R. Sandoval-Orozco, H. Ibarra-Medel +32
We revisit the Quasar Main Sequence (QMS) by investigating the impact of the stellar component from the host galaxy (HG) on the emission line spectra of the active galactic nuclei…
The Tremaine-Weinberg method at high redshifts
Mahmood Roshan, Asiyeh Habibi, J. Alfonso L. Aguerri +11
This paper examines the reliability of the Tremaine-Weinberg (TW) method in measuring the pattern speed of barred galaxies at high redshifts. Measuring pattern speeds at high redsh…
From simulations to observations. Methodology and data release of mock TNG50 galaxies at 0.3 < z < 0.7 for WEAVE-StePS
A. Ikhsanova, L. Costantin, A. Pizzella +17
The new generation of optical spectrographs (i.e., WEAVE, 4MOST, DESI, and WST) offer unprecedented opportunities for statistically studying the star formation histories of galaxie…
Assessing the connection between galactic conformity and assembly-type bias
Ivan Lacerna, Nelson Padilla, Daniela Palma
Context. Galaxies in the Universe show a conformity in the fraction of quenched galaxies out to large distances, being much larger around quenched central galaxies than for star-fo…
