Following the observational and theoretical evidence that points at core-collapse supernovae (SNe) as major producers of dust, here we calculate the...

PublicationDynamical Constraints on the Formation of NGC 4472 and Its Globular Clusters
We present new radial velocities for 87 globular clusters around the elliptical galaxy NGC 4472 and combine these with our previously published data to create a...

PublicationDynamical evolution of globular cluster systems in clusters of galaxies - I. The case of NGC 1404 in the Fornax cluster
We investigate, via numerical simulations, the tidal stripping and accretion of globular clusters (GCs). In particular, we focus on creating models that...

PublicationEffect of the initial mass function on the dynamical SMBH mass estimate in the nucleated early-type galaxy FCC 47
Supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and nuclear star clusters (NSCs) co-exist in many galaxies. While the formation history of the black hole is essentially lost...

PublicationEmbedded Star Formation in S4G Galaxy Dust Lanes
Star-forming regions that are visible at 3.6 μm and Hα but not in the u, g, r, i, z bands of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey are measured in five nearby spiral...

PublicationEvidence for a fundamental stellar upper mass limit from clustered star formation
The observed masses of the most massive stars do not surpass about 150 Msolar. This may either be a fundamental upper mass limit which is defined by the physics...

PublicationEvidence for Blue Straggler Stars Rejuvenating the Integrated Spectra of Globular Clusters
Integrated spectroscopy is the method of choice for deriving the ages of unresolved stellar systems. However, hot stellar evolutionary stages, such as hot...

PublicationEvidence for globular cluster collapse after a dwarf-dwarf merger: A potential nuclear star cluster in formation
Direct observational evidence for the creation of nuclear star clusters (NSCs) is needed to support the proposed scenarios for their formation. We analysed the...

PublicationEvidence for temporal evolution in the M33 disc as traced by its star clusters
We present precision radial velocities and stellar population parameters for 77 star clusters in the Local Group galaxy M33. Our Gran Telescopio de Canarias and...
