Arp 70: an interacting galaxy with extreme outflows
We analysed a Fabry-Pérot (FP) cube of the interacting pair of galaxies Arp 70, which was obtained from the CeSAM public repository of FP data. On the larger...
ARRAKIS: atlas of resonance rings as known in the S4G
Context. Resonance rings and pseudorings (here collectively called rings) are thought to be related to the gathering of material near dynamical resonances...
The growth channel of massive galaxies involving mergers can be studied via close pairs as putative merger progenitors, where the stellar populations of the...
Assessing the accuracy of star formation rate measurements by direct star count in molecular clouds
Star formation estimates based on the counting of young stellar objects (YSOs) are commonly carried out for nearby star-forming regions in the Galaxy, and in...
Astrometry and photometry of stars and star clusters in M33
We present positions and magnitudes of stars and star clusters in a 1° × 1° area centered on M33. The survey is based on deep archival ground-based images using...
Astronomers discover that the first galaxies had very different shapes to today's galaxies
Thanks to images obtained by the James Webb Telescope (JWST), an international scientific team in which the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC)...
Astronomers discover tiny galaxy with extraordinary star formation in distant Universe
Using first-of-their-kind observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international scientific team, in which the Instituto de Astrofísica de...
Astronomers find a galaxy unchanged since the early universe
Researchers at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) confirm the first detection of a relic galaxy with the Hubble Space Telescope. The results of this...
Astronomers find the first galaxy whose ultraviolet luminosity is comparable to that of a quasar
An international scientific team, led by researchers at the Centre for Astrobiology (CAB, CSIC-INTA) and with participation by the Instituto de Astrofísica de...
