    The complex structure of Abell 2345: a galaxy cluster with non-symmetric radio relics
    Context. The connection of cluster mergers with the presence of extended, diffuse radio sources in galaxy clusters is still debated. Aims: We aim to obtain new...

    The complex variability of blazars: time-scales and periodicity analysis in S4 0954+65
    Among active galactic nuclei, blazars show extreme variability properties. We here investigate the case of the BL Lac object S4 0954+65 with data acquired in...

    The complex, dusty narrow-line region of NGC 4388: gas-jet interactions, outflows and extinction revealed by near-IR spectroscopy
    We present Gemini/GNIRS (Gemini Near-Infrared Spectrograph) spectroscopy of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4388, with simultaneous coverage from 0.85 to 2.5 μm...

    The connection between mass, environment, and slow rotation in simulated galaxies
    Recent observations from integral field spectroscopy (IFS) indicate that the fraction of galaxies that are slow rotators (SRs), FSR, depends primarily on...

    The cosmic assembly of stellar haloes in massive early-type Galaxies
    Using the exquisite depth of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF12 programme) data set, we explore the ongoing assembly of the outermost regions of the most...

    The cosmic evolution of oxygen and nitrogen abundances in star-forming galaxies over the past 10 Gyr
    Aims: The chemical evolution of galaxies on a cosmological timescale is still a matter of debate despite the increasing number of available data provided by...

    The Cosmic Evolution of Quasar Host Galaxies
    We present the results of a near-infrared imaging study of the host galaxies of 17 quasars in the redshift range 1 RLQ(host)=-27.55+/-0.12 and K>RLQ(host)=-26...
