    The intrinsic shape of bulges in the CALIFA survey
    Context. The intrinsic shape of galactic bulges in nearby galaxies provides crucial information to separate bulge types. Aims: We aim to derive accurate...

    The intrinsic three-dimensional shape of galactic bars
    We present the first statistical study on the intrinsic three-dimensional (3D) shape of a sample of 83 galactic bars extracted from the CALIFA survey. We use...

    The Ionized Gas in Nearby Galaxies as Traced by the [N II] 122 and 205 μm Transitions
    The [N ii] 122 and 205 μm transitions are powerful tracers of the ionized gas in the interstellar medium. By combining data from 21 galaxies selected from the...

    The ionized gas in the CALIFA early-type galaxies. I. Mapping two representative cases: NGC 6762 and NGC 5966
    As part of the ongoing CALIFA survey, we have conducted a thorough bidimensional analysis of the ionized gas in two E/S0 galaxies, NGC 6762 and NGC 5966, aiming...

    The ionized intergalactic gas: baryonic dark matter.
    We use Hα measurements of complete sets of HII regions in disc galaxies to compute the fraction of ionizing photons which escape from them using the hypothesis...
