PublicationThe synchronized dance of the magellanic clouds' star formation history
We use the SMASH survey to obtain unprecedented deep photometry reaching down to the oldest main-sequence turn-offs in the colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of...

PublicationThe truncation of the disk of NGC 4565. Detected up to z = 4 kpc, with star formation, and affected by the warp
Context. The hierarchical model of galaxy formation suggests that galaxies are continuously growing. However, our position inside the Milky Way prevents us from...

PublicationThe ultraviolet to far-infrared spectral energy distribution of star-forming galaxies in the redshift desert
We analyse the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (near-IR) spectral energy distribution (SED) of Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs), star-forming (SF) BzK...

PublicationThe universal variability of the stellar initial mass function probed by the TIMER survey
The debate about the universality of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) revolves around two competing lines of evidence. While measurements in the Milky...

PublicationThe VANDELS ESO public spectroscopic survey
VANDELS is a uniquely deep spectroscopic survey of high-redshift galaxies with the VIMOS spectrograph on ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). The survey has...

PublicationThe vertical structure of the spiral galaxy NGC 3501: first stages of the formation of a thin metal-rich disc
We trace the evolution of the edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 3501, making use of its stellar populations extracted from deep integral-field spectroscopy MUSE...

PublicationThe VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. XI. A census of the hot luminous stars and their feedback in 30 Doradus
Context. The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey has an extensive view of the copious number of massive stars in the 30 Doradus (30 Dor) star forming region of the...

PublicationThe Young Exoplanet Transit Initiative (YETI)
We present the Young Exoplanet Transit Initiative (YETI), in which we use several 0.2 to 2.6-m telescopes around the world to monitor continuously young (≤100...
