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 onset of stellar bars at Cosmic Noon. Bar-driven quenching and AGN co-evolution in a mature disc galaxy

Luca Costantin, Lorenzo Morelli, Cristina Cabello +15

Observations with the JWST revealed an unexpected abundance of barred galaxies at Cosmic Noon. However, the physical properties of these early bars are almost unconstrained, as it…

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 structure…

NGC 7457: Evidence for merger-driven cylindrical rotation in disc galaxies

Alireza Molaeinezhad, Ling Zhu, Jesús Falcón-Barroso +7

We construct Schwarzschild orbit-based models of NGC 7457, known as a peculiar low-mass lenticular galaxy. Our best-fitting model successfully retrieves most of the unusual kinemat…

Deconstructing double-barred galaxies in 2D and 3D. I. Classical nature of the dominant bulges

A. de Lorenzo-Cáceres, J. Méndez-Abreu, B. Thorne +1

We present here a thorough photometric analysis of double-barred galaxies, consisting of i) two-dimensional photometric decompositions including a bulge, inner bar, outer bar, and…

Fossil Groups Origins III. Characterization of the sample and observational properties of fossil systems

S. Zarattini, R. Barrena, M. Girardi +15

(Abridged) Fossil systems are group- or cluster-sized objects whose luminosity is dominated by a very massive central galaxy. In the current cold dark matter scenario, these object…

Characterization of a sample of intermediate-type AGN. II. Host Bulge Properties and Black Hole Mass Estimates

Erika Benítez, Jairo Méndez-Abreu, Isaura Fuentes-Carrera +6

We present a study of the host bulge properties and their relations with the black hole mass on a sample of 10 intermediate-type active galactic nuclei (AGN). Our sample consists m…

Characterization of a sample of intermediate-type AGN. I. Spectroscopic properties and serendipitous discovery of new Dual AGN

Erika Benítez, Jairo Méndez-Abreu, Isaura Fuentes-Carrera +6

A sample of 10 nearby intermediate-type active galactic nuclei (AGN) drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-DR7) is presented. The aim of this work is to provide estimations…
