    Clear detection of dusty torus signatures in a weak-line radio galaxy: the case of PKS 0043-42
    We report the clearest detection to date of dusty torus signatures in a weak-line radio galaxy (WLRG). The deep Spitzer InfraRed Spectrograph (IRS) rest-frame...

    Clear evidence for the early triggering of a luminous quasar-like active galactic nuclei in a major, gas-rich merger
    We present deep, intermediate resolution, long-slit Gemini GMOS-S optical spectra of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) type II quasar J002531-104022, which is...

    Clocking the assembly of double-barred galaxies with the MUSE TIMER project
    The formation of two stellar bars within a galaxy has proved challenging for numerical studies. It is not yet clear whether the inner bar is born via a star...

    Close Galaxy Counts as a Probe of Hierarchical Structure Formation
    The standard ΛCDM model predicts that the major merger rate of galaxy-size dark matter halos rises rapidly with redshift. The average number of close companions...

    Close-up view of a luminous star-forming galaxy at z = 2.95
    Exploiting the sensitivity of the IRAM NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) and its ability to process large instantaneous bandwidths, we have studied the...

    Cloud-scale radio surveys of star formation and feedback in Triangulum Galaxy M 33: VLA observations
    Studying the interplay between massive star formation and the interstellar medium (ISM) is paramount to understand the evolution of galaxies. Radio continuum...

    CLOUDY modeling suggests a diversity of ionization mechanisms for diffuse extraplanar gas
    Context. The ionization of diffuse gas located far above the energetic midplane OB stars poses a challenge to the commonly accepted notion that radiation from...

    CLUES about M33: the reversed radial stellar age gradient in the outskirts of Triangulum galaxy
    HST/ACS observations along the major axis of M33 show that the mean age of its stars decreases with increasing distance from the galaxy centre. Such a behaviour...

    Cluster Abell 520: a perspective based on member galaxies. A cluster forming at the crossing of three filaments?
    Context: The connection of cluster mergers with the presence of extended, diffuse radio sources in galaxy clusters is still debated. An interesting case is the...
