MAUVE-MUSE: Ionization and Kinematic Signatures of Environmental Effects on Virgo Cluster Disks

Toby Brown, Luca Cortese, Barbara Catinella +18

We present early science results from the MAUVE (Multiphase Astrophysics to Unveil the Virgo Environment) program which targets 40 Virgo Cluster galaxies to investigate the effect…

Intracluster light is a close tracer of the dark matter halo shape

Adela Fernandez, Yannick Bahé, Nina Hatch +4

We investigate whether the intracluster light (ICL) can serve as a reliable tracer of the shape of the underlying dark matter (DM) haloes in galaxy clusters. Using the cosmological…

MAUVE: Cold neutral gas in the outflow of NGC 4383 and evidence for a fountain flow

L. Cortese, A. B. Watts, J. Sun +9

We present a multiphase study of the star-formation-driven outflow in the Virgo galaxy NGC 4383, combining ALMA CO(2-1) data with deep MeerKAT HI imaging and MUSE spectroscopy obta…

Composite Bulges -- V. Detecting signatures of gas inflows in IFU data: The MUSE view of ionised gas kinematics in nearby galaxies

Tutku Kolcu, Witold Maciejewski, Peter Erwin +7

Using VLT/MUSE data, we study the ionised-gas kinematics in a mass- and volume-limited (, \,Mpc) sample of 21 nearby galaxies to identify signa…

Multiphase Astrophysics to Unveil the Virgo Environment (MAUVE)

Barbara Catinella, Luca Cortese, Jiayi Sun +26

The Multiphase Astrophysics to Unveil the Virgo Environment (MAUVE) project is a multi-facility programme exploring how dense environments transform galaxies. Combining a VLT/MUSE…

Extreme cloud collisions in nearby barred galaxies

Tutku Kolcu, Mattia C. Sormani, Witold Maciejewski +16

The inner regions of the Milky Way are known to contain an enigmatic population of prominent molecular clouds characterised by extremely broad lines. The physical origin of these '…

Optimising the analysis of emission lines in galaxies: the case of the MUSE TIMER galaxy NGC 613

Luiz A. Silva-Lima, Dimitri A. Gadotti, Lucimara P. Martins +11

Galaxy evolution is driven by spatially distributed processes with varying timescales. Integral field spectroscopy provides spatially-resolved information about these processes. Ne…

Disc galaxies are still settling: The discovery of the smallest nuclear discs and their young stellar bars

Camila de Sá-Freitas, Dimitri A. Gadotti, Francesca Fragkoudi +11

When galactic discs settle and become massive enough, they are able to form stellar bars. These non-axisymmetric structures induce shocks in the gas, causing it to flow to the cent…

Composite Bulges -- III. A Study of Nuclear Star Clusters in Nearby Spiral Galaxies

Aishwarya Ashok, Anil Seth, Peter Erwin +17

We present photometric and morphological analyses of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) -- very dense, massive star clusters present in the central regions of most galaxies -- in a sampl…

Composite Bulges -- IV. Detecting Signatures of Gas Inflows in the IFU data: The MUSE View of Ionized Gas Kinematics in NGC 1097

Tutku Kolcu, Witold Maciejewski, Dimitri A. Gadotti +8

Using VLT/MUSE integral-field spectroscopic data for the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1097, we explore techniques that can be used to search for extended coherent shocks that can drive…

Quantifying the role of ram pressure stripping of galaxies within galaxy groups

Tutku Kolcu, Jacob P. Crossett, Callum Bellhouse +1

It is often stated that the removal of gas by ram pressure stripping of a galaxy disk is not a common process in galaxy groups. In this study, with the aid of an observational clas…
