Small and Complex II: Characterizing the Disk and Stellar Envelope of Edge-on Massive Compact Galaxies
A. Schnorr-Müller, K. Slodkowski Clerici, F. Pinna +7
We present multi-component photometric decompositions of -band Hyper Suprime-Cam images for a sample of 75 edge-on massive compact galaxies (MCGs) at , selected as $+2Ï…
Bulgeless Evolution And the Rise of Discs (BEARD) I. Physical drivers of the mass-size relation for Milky Way-like galaxies
C. Marrero-de la Rosa, J. Méndez-Abreu, A. de Lorenzo-Cáceres +20
In the standard cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology, the existence of massive pure-disc galaxies remains challenging within the hierarchical framework and is key to understan…
Bulgeless Evolution And the Rise of Discs (BEARD) III. A numerical simulation view of satellites around Milky-Way analogues
Salvador Cardona-Barrero, Jairo Méndez-Abreu, Adriana de Lorenzo-Cáceres +17
. The existence of massive disc galaxies with little or no bulge challenges conventional cold dark matter model, which typically favours dynamically hot central structur…
Bulgeless Evolution And the Rise of Discs (BEARD) II. The role of mergers in shaping the Milky Way analogues in TNG50
Yetli Rosas-Guevara, Jairo Méndez-Abreu, Adriana de Lorenzo-Cáceres +20
We study the formation and evolution of bulgeless galaxies within the Milky Way-Andromeda analogue sample of the TNG50 simulation. Through kinematic decomposition with Mordor, we i…
Determining star formation histories and age-metallicity relations with convolutional neural networks
Enrique Galceran, Patricia Sánchez-Blázquez, Artemi Camps-Fariña +8
We aim to develop a state-of-the-art tool to infer detailed star formation histories (SFHs) and age-metallicity relations from realistic observational data, while mitigating classi…
The GECKOS Survey: Extraplanar ionised gas in star-forming galaxies from eDIG to galaxy-scale winds
R. Elliott, D. B. Fisher, B. Mazzilli Ciraulo +19
We map the extraplanar gas, with 50-200 pc resolution, in nine star-forming galaxies using Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) observations from the GECKOS VLT Large Pro…
