Exploring the stellar streams and satellites around the giant low surface brightness galaxy Malin 1
Roy O. E. Bustos-Espinoza, Matias Blaña, Gaspar Galaz +7
Context. Giant Low Surface Brightness galaxies, such as Malin 1, host extended discs exceeding 100 kpc. Their formation and evolution remain debated, with interactions with satelli…
Tidal pre-conditioning and ram-pressure stripping in NGC 1427A. Deep VLT/MUSE spectroscopy and FUV-to-radio observations trace a Fornax Cluster dwarf in transformation
J. P. Carvajal, T. H. Puzia, M. Blaña +11
The early environmental transformation of low-mass cluster galaxies from gas-rich to gas-poor remains poorly constrained, partly because clear, phase-resolved observations are rare…
Searching for new Hypervelocity Stars with Gaia DR3 and VLT/FORS2 Spectroscopy
Julio A. Carballo-Bello, Pau Ramos, Jesús M. Corral-Santana +5
Hypervelocity stars are unique objects moving through the Milky Way at speeds exceeding the local escape velocity, providing valuable insights into the Galactic gravitational poten…
Diving into dangerous tides: The impact of galaxy cluster tidal environments on satellite galaxy mass densities
Matias Blaña, Thomas H. Puzia, Yasna Ordenes-Briceño +8
Satellite galaxies endure powerful environmental tidal forces that drive mass stripping of their outer regions. Consequently, satellites located in central regions of galaxy cluste…
Exploring the stellar streams and satellites around the giant low surface brightness galaxy Malin 1
Roy O. E. Bustos-Espinoza, Matias Blaña, Gaspar Galaz +7
Giant Low Surface Brightness galaxies (gLSBGs), such as Malin 1, host extended stellar and gaseous discs exceeding in radius. Their formation and evolution remai…
