    Fueling and Morphology of Central Starbursts
    Of the mechanisms proposed to bring gaseous fuel into the central starburst regions of a galaxy, non-axisymmetries in the gravitational potential set up by...

    Fully cosmological virtual massive galaxies at z = 0: kinematical, morphological and stellar population characterization
    We present the results of a numerical adaptive mesh refinement hydrodynamical and N-body simulation in a Λ cold dark matter cosmology. We focus on the analysis...

    Further Evidence for a Supermassive Black Hole Mass-Pitch Angle Relation
    We present new and stronger evidence for a previously reported relationship between galactic spiral arm pitch angle P (a measure of the tightness of spiral...

    Further evidence for a time-dependent initial mass function in massive early-type galaxies
    Spectroscopic analyses of gravity-sensitive line strengths give growing evidence towards an excess of low-mass stars in massive early-type galaxies (ETGs). Such...

    g'r'i' and redshift of Abell 2254 galaxies (Girardi+, 2011)
    Multi-object spectroscopic observations of A2254 were carried out at the TNG telescope in May and October 2009 and in March 2010. Our photometric observations...

    Gaia Data Release 3. The extragalactic content
    The Gaia Galactic survey mission is designed and optimized to obtain astrometry, photometry, and spectroscopy of nearly two billion stars in our Galaxy. Yet as...

    Gaia DR 2 and VLT/FLAMES search for new satellites of the LMC
    A wealth of tiny galactic systems populates the surroundings of the Milky Way. However, some of these objects might have originated as former satellites of the...
