Unveiling the properties of galaxy cores excavated by supermassive black hole binaries with SHARP
E. Bortolas, E. Portaluri, E. Dalla Bonta' +3
Massive black hole (MBH) binaries form as a result of galaxy mergers and can coalesce into a single MBH by emitting gravitational waves detectable by LISA and pulsar timing array c…
SHARP -- A spectrograph proposal to fully exploit ELT capabilities and look beyond JWST
P. Saracco, P. Conconi, C. Arcidiacono +47
The Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), with their large apertures and cutting-edge Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) systems, promise to deliver data that is both sharper and…
SHARP: Beyond JWST -- Revealing the galaxy birth and growth with the resolution of the ELT
P. Saracco, P. Conconi, C. Arcidiacono +37
A deep understanding of the life-cycle of galaxies, particularly those of high mass, requires clarifying the mechanisms that regulate star formation (SF) and its abrupt shutdown (q…
Orbits of very distant asteroid satellites
K. Minker, B. Carry, F. Vachier +36
The very wide binary asteroid (VWBA) population is a small subset of the population of known binary and multiple asteroids made of systems with very widely orbiting satellites and…
