Once in a blue stream: Detection of recent star formation in the NGC 7241 stellar stream with MEGARA

David Martinez-Delgado, Santi Roca-Fabrega, Armando Gil de Paz +23

In this work we study the striking case of a narrow blue stream around the NGC 7241 galaxy and its foreground dwarf companion. We want to figure out if the stream was generated by…

A feather on the hat: Tracing the giant stellar stream around the Sombrero galaxy

David Martinez-Delgado, Javier Roman, Denis Erkal +7

Recent evidence of extremely metal-rich stars found in the Sombrero galaxy (M104) halo suggests that this galaxy has undergone a recent major merger with a relatively massive galax…

Pisces VII: Discovery of a possible satellite of Messier 33 in the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys

David Martinez-Delgado, Noushin Karim, Emily J. E. Charles +5

We report deep imaging observations with DOLoRes@TNG of an ultra-faint dwarf satellite candidate of the Triangulum galaxy (M33) found by visual inspection of the public imaging dat…
