NGC 1436: the making of a lenticular galaxy in the Fornax cluster

Alessandro Loni, Paolo Serra, Marc Sarzi +25

We study the evolutionary path of the Fornax cluster galaxy NGC1436, which is known to be currently transitioning from a spiral into a lenticular morphology. This galaxy hosts a…

The MeerKAT Fornax Survey -- I. Survey description and first evidence of ram pressure in the Fornax galaxy cluster

P. Serra, F. M. Maccagni, D. Kleiner +22

The MeerKAT Fornax Survey maps the distribution and kinematics of atomic neutral hydrogen gas (HI) in the nearby Fornax galaxy cluster using the MeerKAT telescope. The 12 deg^2 sur…

Fountain-driven gas accretion feeding star formation over the disc of NGC 2403

Anqi Li, Filippo Fraternali, Antonino Marasco +4

We use a dynamical model of galactic fountain to study the neutral extraplanar gas (EPG) in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 2403. We have modelled the EPG as a combination of material…

The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation

Shoko Jin, Scott C. Trager, Gavin B. Dalton +212

WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree…
