LIGHTS. Limitations of Far-Infrared Tracers for Galactic Cirrus Mitigation in the Era of Ultra-Deep Imaging
Ouldouz Kaboud, Ignacio Trujillo, Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo +18
Current and forthcoming deep optical imaging surveys are reaching surface brightness levels fainter than 30 mag/arcsec, where Galactic cirrus emission becomes a significant con…
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…
How large can galaxies be? Ultra-deep imaging of IC 1101, the most extended known galaxy
Carlos Marrero-de la Rosa, Ignacio Trujillo, Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo +12
The maximum physical extent that galaxies can reach is poorly understood. In this regard, IC 1101, one of the most extended and massive galaxies known, provides a valuable opportun…
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…
Revisiting the structure of galactic disks with deep imaging
Samane Raji, Ignacio Trujillo, Fernando Buitrago +2
Thanks to new advances in astronomical imaging, we can now routinely explore disk galaxy profiles about two magnitudes deeper than the data available 20 years ago. In this regard,…
Deep imaging of the galaxy Malin 2 shows new faint structures and a candidate satellite dwarf galaxy
Junais, Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo, Sergio Guerra Arencibia +5
Giant Low Surface Brightness (GLSB) galaxies are extreme disk systems with exceptionally large sizes and low stellar densities. Their formation and evolution remain poorly constrai…
LIGHTS. A robust technique to identify galaxy edges
Giulia Golini, Ignacio Trujillo, Dennis Zaritsky +19
The LIGHTS survey is imaging galaxies at a depth and spatial resolution comparable to what the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will produce in 10 years (i.e., 31 mag/a…
Assessing interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS with the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias and the Two-meter Twin Telescope
R. de la Fuente Marcos, M. R. Alarcon, J. Licandro +8
Context. Theories of the formation and evolution of small bodies in planetary systems predict that they may escape into interstellar space at any time. After having characterized j…
UV LIGHTS. New tools for revealing the low surface brightness regime in the ultraviolet
Ignacio Ruiz Cejudo, Ignacio Trujillo, Giulia Golini +16
Ultra-deep optical surveys have reached unprecedented depths, facilitating the study of faint galactic structures. However, the ultraviolet bands, crucial for stellar population st…
