We study the physical and kinematic properties of the narrow-line region (NLR) of the nearest obscured quasar MRK 477 (z = 0.037), using optical and near...

Using data from the Near-Infrared S0 Survey of nearby, early-type galaxies, we examine the distribution of bar strengths in S0 galaxies as compared to S0/a and...

Mergers are fundamental to our understanding of the processes driving the evolution of the structure and morphology of galaxies, star formation, active galactic...

The far-IR/sub-mm wavelength range contains a wealth of diagnostic information that is important for understanding the role of active galactic nuclei (AGN) in...

High spectral resolution spectroscopy has proved to be very useful for the advancement of chemical abundances studies in photoionized nebulae, such as H II...

Context. Dwarf elliptical galaxies (dEs) are the most abundant in the Universe. Research into these objects in connection with late-type dwarf galaxies is...

We present deep near-infrared (Ks ) images and surface photometry for 80 dwarf irregular galaxies (dIs) within ~5 Mpc of the Milky Way. The galaxy images were...

Aims: Whereas the evolution of gas kinematics of massive galaxies is now relatively well established up to redshift z ~ 3, little is known about the kinematics...

We analyze J, H, and Ks near-infrared data for nine blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies, selected from a larger sample that we have already studied in the optical...
