  • Publication
    The importance of binary stars
    Stars are mostly found in binary and multiple systems, as at least 50% of all solar-like stars have companions - a fraction that goes up to 100% for the most...
  • Publication
    The importance of galaxy interactions in triggering type II quasar activity
    We present deep Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph-South optical broad-band images for a complete sample of 20 Sloan Digital Sky Survey selected type II quasars...
  • Publication
    The importance of the local density in shaping the galaxy stellar mass functions
    Exploiting the capabilities of four different surveys - the Padova-Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue (PM2GC), the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey...
  • Publication
    The importance of warm, AGN-driven outflows in the nuclear regions of nearby ULIRGs
    We present an optical spectroscopic study of a 90 per cent complete sample of nearby ULIRGs (z 0.175) with optical Seyfert nuclei, with the aim of...
  • Publication
    The imprint of cosmological hydrogen recombination lines on the power spectrum of the CMB
    We explore the imprint of the cosmological hydrogen recombination lines on the power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In particular, we focus...
  • Publication
    The imprints of bars on the vertical stellar population gradients of galactic bulges
    This is the second paper of a series aimed to study the stellar kinematics and population properties of bulges in highly inclined barred galaxies. In this work...
  • Publication
    The incidence of bar-like kinematic flows in CALIFA galaxies
    We carry out a direct search for bar-like non-circular flows in intermediate-inclination, gas-rich disc galaxies with a range of morphological types and...
  • Publication
    The inclination of network magnetic fields
    We have observed the linear polarization of 21 bright grains of the photospheric network close to the disk center. The linear polarization of Fe I 6302.5 A was...
  • Publication
    The inflated, eccentric warm Jupiter TOI-4914 b orbiting a metal-poor star, and the hot Jupiters TOI-2714 b and TOI-2981 b
    Recent observations of giant planets have revealed unexpected bulk densities. Hot Jupiters, in particular, appear larger than expected for their masses compared...
