The Virgo Filament Survey (VFS) is a comprehensive study of galaxies that reside in the extended filamentary structures surrounding the Virgo Cluster, out to 12 virial radii. The primary goal is to characterize all of the dominant baryonic components withi ...
JWST spectroscopy has discovered a population of z greater than or similar to 3.5 galaxies with broad Balmer emission lines and narrow forbidden lines that are consistent with hosting active galactic nuclei (AGN). Many of these systems, now known as "littl ...
We present a comprehensive study of the star formation histories of massive-quenched galaxies at z = 3 in three semi-analytical models (SHARK, GAEA, GALFORM) and three cosmological hydrodynamical simulations (EAGLE, ILLUSTRISTNG, SIMBA). We study the predi ...
We homogeneously measured the elliptical shapes of 163 globular clusters (GCs) using the on-sky distribution of their cluster members and the third data release of the ESA mission Gaia (DR3). The astrometry enables the differentiation of stars within clust ...
Context. Over recent years, additional low-amplitude non-radial modes have been detected in many first-overtone RR Lyrae stars. These non-radial modes form a characteristic period ratio with the dominant first overtone of around 0.61. The incidence rate of ...
We present the addition of nebular emission from the narrow-line regions (NLR) surrounding active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to BEAGLE (BayEsian Analysis of GaLaxy sEds). Using a set of idealized spectra, we fit to a set of observables (emission-line ratios an ...
Precise and accurate mass calibration is required to exploit galaxy clusters as astrophysical and cosmological probes in the Euclid era. Systematic errors in lensing signals by galaxy clusters can be empirically estimated by comparing different surveys wit ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered a surprising population of bright galaxies in the very early Universe (≲500 Myr after the Big Bang) that is hard to explain with conventional galaxy-formation models and whose physical properties are not fully ...
All modern galaxy formation models employ stochastic elements in their sub-grid prescriptions to discretize continuous equations across the time domain. In this paper, we investigate how the stochastic nature of these models, notably star formation, black ...
