The Infrared Glow of Galactic Outskirts: A New Window with NASIM

Elham Saremi, Ignacio Trujillo, Mohammad Akhlaghi +5

The outskirts of galaxies retain fossil records of their assembly history and are dominated by old stellar populations shaped by tidal interactions, accretion events, and environme…

Serendipitous discovery of an almost-dark galaxy in the Virgo Cluster

Minh Ngoc Le, Ignacio Trujillo, Sergio Guerra Arencibia +9

Analogues of extreme Local Group galaxies with very low surface brightnesses and large effective radii must exist elsewhere, still hidden due to current detection limits. We report…

Bridging integrated-light and resolved-star studies of Local Group dwarf spheroidals. A novel use of deep imaging based on amateur telescopes

Sergio Guerra Arencibia, Ignacio Trujillo, Mireia Montes +4

Low-mass galaxies beyond the Local Group can only be studied through their integrated light, yet it remains unclear whether structural parameters inferred from integrated light are…

Ultra-Deep imaging of the starless galaxy candidate Cloud-9

Ignacio Trujillo, Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo, Sergio Guerra Arencibia +1

We report the non-detection of stellar light associated with the dark galaxy candidate Cloud-9. Ultra-deep imaging obtained with HiPERCAM at the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) reac…

The explosive growth of the Messier 74 galaxy. A galaxy doubling its size in less than a Gigayear

Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo, Ignacio Trujillo, Sergio Guerra Arencibia +3

Galaxy formation models predict that galaxies grow inside-out, becoming larger over time. While observations broadly support this paradigm, the nature and timescales of this growth…

LIGHTS. The Thin Encircling Stellar Stream of NGC 3938

Dennis Zaritsky, Jacob Nibauer, Giulia Golini +17

We present a stellar stream found in images of the nearby, nearly face-on, late-type galaxy, NGC 3938 obtained for the LBT Imaging of Galactic Halos and Tidal Structures (LIGHTS) s…
