Barred AGN galaxies in paired systems: exploring the impact on nuclear activity

Sol Alonso, Matias Vera-Rueda, Georgina Coldwell +2

Aims: To unveil the influence of galaxy-galaxy interactions on material transport driven by galactic bars towards the central regions of active galactic nuclei (AGN) galaxies and a…

Enlightening the Universe behind the Milky Way Bulge

Fernanda Duplancic, Sol Alonso, Georgina Coldwell +7

Context. The location of the Solar System constrains the detection of extragalactic sources beyond the Milky Way(MW) plane. The optical observations are hampered in the so--called…

Satellites and central galaxies in SDSS: the influence of interactions on their properties

Valeria Mesa, Sol Alonso, Georgina Coldwell +2

We use SDSS-DR14 to construct a sample of galaxy systems consisting of a central object and two satellites. We adopt projected distance and radial velocity difference criteria and…

Weak lensing analysis of galaxy pairs using CS82 data

Elizabeth J. Gonzalez, Facundo Rodriguez, Diego García Lambas +6

In this work we analyze a sample of close galaxy pairs (relative projected separation kpc and relative radial velocities km s) using a weak lensing analy…

LINER galaxy properties and the local environment

Georgina V. Coldwell, Sol Alonso, Fernanda Duplancic +1

We analyse the properties of a sample of 5560 LINER galaxies selected from SDSS-DR12 at low redshift, for a complete range of local density environments. The host LINER galaxies we…

Interacting galaxies: co-rotating and counter-rotating systems with tidal tails

Valeria Mesa, Fernanda Duplancic, Sol Alonso +2

We analyse interacting galaxy pairs with evidence of tidal features in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS-DR7). The pairs were selected within by requiring a…

Galaxy interactions I: Major and minor mergers

Diego G. Lambas, Sol Alonso, Valeria Mesa +1

We study galaxy pair samples selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-DR7) and we perform an analysis of minor and major mergers with the aim of investigating the dependenc…
