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…
The GECKOS Survey: revealing the formation history of a barred galaxy via structural decomposition and resolved spectroscopy
A. Fraser-McKelvie, D. A. Gadotti, F. Fragkoudi +10
Disentangling the (co-)evolution of individual galaxy structural components remains a difficult task, owing to the inability to cleanly isolate light from spatially overlapping com…
The GECKOS Survey: Resolved, multiphase observations of mass-loading and gas density in the galactic wind of NGC 4666
Barbara Mazzilli Ciraulo, D. B. Fisher, R. Elliott +24
We present a multiphase, resolved study of the galactic wind extending from the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 4666. For this we use VLT/MUSE observations from the GECKOS program and…
The GECKOS survey: Jeans anisotropic models of edge-on discs uncover the impact of dust and kinematic structures
T. H. Rutherford, A. Fraser-McKelvie, E. Emsellem +17
The central regions of disc galaxies host a rich variety of stellar structures: nuclear discs, bars, bulges, and boxy-peanut (BP) bulges. These components are often difficult to di…
