    MILES SSP Models
    We present SEDs for single-age, single-metallicity stellar populations (SSPs) covering the full optical spectral range at resolution (FWHM = 2.3Å). These SEDs...

    Minor axis kinematics of 19 S0-Sbc bulges
    We present minor axis kinematic profiles for a well-studied sample of 19 early- to intermediate-type disk galaxies. We introduce, for the first time, the use of...

    Minor Merger Origin for the Circumnuclear Starburst in NGC 7742
    We present an emission-line diagnostic analysis of integral-field spectroscopic observations that cover the central kiloparsec of NGC 7742. This Sa galaxy hosts...

    Mirach's Goblin: Discovery of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy behind the Andromeda galaxy
    Context. It is of broad interest for galaxy formation theory to carry out a full inventory of the numbers and properties of dwarf galaxies, both satellite and...

    MIUSCAT: extended MILES spectral coverage - I. Stellar population synthesis models
    We extend the spectral range of our stellar population synthesis models based on the MILES and CaT empirical stellar spectral libraries. For this purpose, we...

    MIUSCAT: extended MILES spectral coverage - II. Constraints from optical photometry
    In this work, we show a comprehensive comparison of our new stellar population synthesis (SPS) MIUSCAT models with photometric data of globular clusters (GCs)...
  • Publication
    Mixed early and late-type properties in the bar of NGC 6221: Evidence for evolution along the Hubble sequence?
    Rotation curves and velocity dispersion profiles are presented for both the stellar and gaseous components along five different position angles (PA =5(deg) , 50...

    Mock observations with the Millennium Simulation: cosmological downsizing and intermediate-redshift observations
    Only by incorporating various forms of feedback can theories of galaxy formation reproduce the present-day luminosity function of galaxies. It has also been...

    Model Color-Magnitude Diagrams for Hubble Space Telescope Observations of Local Group Dwarf Galaxies
    In this Letter, we discuss a method to conduct a quantitative study of the star formation history (SFH) of Local Group (LG) galaxies using Hubble Space...
