    Toward an Internally Consistent Astronomical Distance Scale
    Accurate astronomical distance determination is crucial for all fields in astrophysics, from Galactic to cosmological scales. Despite, or perhaps because of...

    Toward an Understanding of the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 5252: A Spectroscopic Study
    We present long-slit spectra of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5252, covering the nucleus and part of the extranuclear emission-line region. All the regions sampled...
  • Publication
    Toward measuring supermassive black hole masses with interferometric observations of the dust continuum
    This work focuses on active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and on the relation between the sizes of the hot dust continuum and the broad-line region (BLR). We find that...

    Towards a new classification of galaxies: principal component analysis of CALIFA circular velocity curves
    We present a galaxy classification system for 238 (E1-Sdm) CALIFA (Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area) galaxies based on the shapes and amplitudes of their...
  • Publication
    Towards universal hybrid star formation rate estimators
    Context. To compute the star formation rate (SFR) of galaxies from the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV), it is essential to take the obscuration by dust into account...
  • Publication
    Tracing kinematic (mis)alignments in CALIFA merging galaxies. Stellar and ionized gas kinematic orientations at every merger stage
    We present spatially resolved stellar and/or ionized gas kinematic properties for a sample of 103 interacting galaxies, tracing all merger stages: close...

    Tracing Out the Northern Tidal Stream of the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
    The main aim of this paper is to report two new detections of tidal debris in the northern stream of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy located at 45° and 55° from...
  • Publication
    Tracing satellite planes in the Sculptor group. I. Discovery of three faint dwarf galaxies around NGC 253
    Context. In recent years, a new generation of large-scale imaging surveys have probed wide field regions for the first time around some nearby galaxies in an...

    Tracing the Evolution of Dust Obscured Star Formation and Accretion Back to the Reionisation Epoch with SPICA
    Our current knowledge of star formation and accretion luminosity at high redshift (z > 3-4), as well as the possible connections between them, relies mostly on...
