    Diverse young stellar populations in the intermediate-redshift radio galaxies 3C 213.1 and 3C 459: implications for the evolution of the host galaxies
    We present European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope (ESO VLT) and William Herschel Telescope (WHT) spectroscopic observations of two powerful radio...

    Diversity of dwarf galaxy IR-submm emission patterns: CLUES from hydrodynamical simulations
    Context. The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of low-mass low-metallicity (dwarf) galaxies are a challenging piece of the puzzle of galaxy formation in the...
  • Publication
    Diversity of nuclear star cluster formation mechanisms revealed by their star formation histories
    Nuclear star clusters (NSCs) are the densest stellar systems in the Universe and are found in the centres of all types of galaxies. They are thought to form via...

    Do AGN triggering mechanisms vary with radio power? - I. Optical morphologies of radio-intermediate HERGs
    Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with intermediate radio powers are capable of driving multiphase outflows in galaxy bulges, and are also more common than their...

    Do AGN triggering mechanisms vary with radio power? - II. The importance of mergers as a function of radio power and optical luminosity
    Investigation of the triggering mechanisms of radio active galactic nuclei (radio AGN) is important for improving our general understanding of galaxy evolution...

    Do Bars Drive Spiral Density Waves?
    We present deep near-infrared Ks -band Anglo-Australian Telescope Infrared Imager and Spectrograph observations of a selected sample of nearby barred spiral...
  • Publication
    Do galaxies form a spectroscopic sequence?
    We identify a spectroscopic sequence of galaxies, analogous to the Hubble sequence of morphological types, based on the Automatic Spectroscopic K-means-based...

    Do Local Analogs of Lyman Break Galaxies Exist?
    The optical properties of a number of supercompact ultraviolet luminous galaxies (UVLGs), recently discovered in the local universe matching Galaxy Evolution...

    Do spiral arms enhance star formation efficiency?
    Spiral arms, as those of our own Milky Way, are some of the most spectacular features in disc galaxies. It has been argued that star formation should proceed...
