    Magnetic turbulence hidden in the Whirlpool Galaxy
    There is a force hidden deep inside galaxies: magnetic fields. Invisible to conventional telescopes, they are a factor in galaxy evolution, regulating the...

    Mapping the stellar population and gas excitation of MaNGA galaxies with MEGACUBES. Results for AGN versus control sample
    We present spaxel-by-spaxel stellar population fits for the ~10 000 MaNGA data cubes. We provide multiple extension fits files, nominated as MEGACUBES, with...

    Mass outflow and its consequences in the circumnuclear zones of galaxies
    Spectroscopic and photometric observations are used to determine the distributions of gas and the kinematics in the central zones of a number of spirals. In...

    Mass, metallicity and SFR relationships in star forming galaxies using deep surveys
    To understand the formation and evolution of galaxies, it is important to have a full comprehension of the role played by Metallicity, Star Formation Rate (SFR)...

    Massive Clumps in Local Galaxies: Comparisons with High-redshift Clumps
    Local UV-bright galaxies in the Kiso survey include clumpy systems with kiloparsec-size star complexes that resemble clumpy young galaxies in surveys at high...

    Massive quiescent galaxies at z 3: A comparison of selection, stellar population, and structural properties with simulation predictions
    We study stellar population and structural properties of massive log (M ⋆/M ⊙) > 11 galaxies at z ≈ 2.7 in the Magneticum and IllustrisTNG hydrodynamical...

    Massive star formation in galaxies with excess ultraviolet emission
    From an analysis of almost 2000 Galaxy Evolution Explorer images of galaxies with morphological types ranging from E to Sab, we have found a significant subset...

    Merger induced clump formation in distant infrared luminous starburst galaxies
    While the formation of stellar clumps in distant galaxies is usually attributed to gravitational violent disk instabilities, we show here that major mergers...

    Merger-driven star formation activity in Cl J1449+0856 at z = 1.99 as seen by ALMA and JVLA
    We use Atacama Large Millimetre Array and Jansky Very Large Array observations of the galaxy cluster Cl J1449+0856 at z = 1.99, in order to study how dust...
