The CAVITY project. The spatially resolved stellar population properties of galaxies in voids
Ana M. Conrado, Rosa M. González Delgado, Rubén GarcÃa-Benito +28
The Universe is shaped as a web-like structure, formed by clusters, filaments, and walls that leave large volumes in between named voids. Galaxies in voids have been found to be of…
CAVITY, Calar Alto Void Integral-field Treasury surveY and project extension
I. Pérez, S. Verley, L. Sánchez-Menguiano +58
We have learnt in the last decades that the majority of galaxies belong to high density regions interconnected in a sponge-like fashion. This large-scale structure is characterised…
Do spiral arms enhance star formation efficiency?
Miguel Querejeta, Adam K. Leroy, Sharon E. Meidt +32
Spiral arms are some of the most spectacular features in disc galaxies, and also present in our own Milky Way. It has been argued that star formation should proceed more efficientl…
Impacts of bar-driven shear and shocks on star formation
Taehyun Kim, Dimitri A. Gadotti, Miguel Querejeta +12
Bars drive gas inflow. As the gas flows inwards, shocks and shear occur along the bar dust lanes. Such shocks and shear can affect the star formation and change the gas properties.…
