A new method for age-dating the formation of bars in disc galaxies: The TIMER view on NGC1433's old bar and the inside-out growth of its nuclear disc

Camila de Sá-Freitas, Francesca Fragkoudi, Dimitri A. Gadotti +16

The epoch in which galactic discs settle is a major benchmark to test models of galaxy formation and evolution but is as yet largely unknown. Once discs settle and become self-grav…

Quasar Feedback Survey: Multi-phase outflows, turbulence and evidence for feedback caused by low power radio jets inclined into the galaxy disk

A. Girdhar, C. M. Harrison, V. Mainieri +18

We present a study of a luminous, z=0.15, type-2 quasar (log [L([OIII])/(erg/s)]=42.8) from the Quasar Feedback Survey. It is classified as 'radio-quiet' (log [L(1.4 GHz)/(W/Hz)]=2…

Diversity of nuclear star cluster formation mechanisms revealed by their star formation histories

K. Fahrion, M. Lyubenova, G. van de Ven +15

Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are the densest stellar systems in the Universe and are found in the centres of all types of galaxies. They are thought to form via mergers of star clu…

Galaxies within galaxies in the TIMER survey: stellar populations of inner bars are scaled replicas of main bars

Adrian Bittner, Adriana de Lorenzo-Cáceres, Dimitri A. Gadotti +11

Inner bars are frequent structures in the local Universe and thought to substantially influence the nuclear regions of disc galaxies. In this study we explore the structure and dyn…

The kinematics of young and old stellar populations in nuclear rings of MUSE TIMER galaxies

D. Rosado-Belza, J. Falcón-Barroso, J. H. Knapen +12

Studying the stellar kinematics of galaxies is a key tool in the reconstruction of their evolution. However, the current measurements of the stellar kinematics are complicated by s…

The inside-out formation of nuclear discs and the absence of old central spheroids in barred galaxies of the TIMER survey

Adrian Bittner, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Dimitri A. Gadotti +13

The centres of disc galaxies host a variety of structures built via both internal and external processes. In this study, we constrain the formation and evolution of these central s…
