Description
The authors developed routines for intensity, equivalent width, and radial velocity measurements on CES plus Reticon spectra obtained with the ESO 1.4 m telescope. In order to achieve the optimal recovery of the signal, the noise has to be minimized by removing any parasitical effect. Special care has been devoted to the correction for remanence effects in the Reticon dark counts. Typical results are presented and discussed.

    The Undiscovered Ultra Diffuse galaxies of the Local Group: predictions from constrained cosmological simulations
    Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are attractive candidates to probe cosmological models and test theories of galaxy formation at low masses; however, they are difficult to detect because of their low surface brightness. In the Local Group a handful of UDGs have been found to date, most of which are satellites of the Milky Way and M31, and only two are

    Deriving Star Formation Histories of Galaxies from Spectra with Simulation-based Inference
    High-resolution galaxy spectra encode information about the stellar populations within galaxies. By investigating the properties of these stars, such as their ages, masses, and metallicities, we can gain insights into the underlying physical processes that drive the growth and transformation of galaxies over cosmic time, in particular, the triggers

    A Combined Analysis of Jeans Kinematics and Milli-Second Pulsar Timing Effects: Probing the Mass Contents of Omega Centauri
    We explore the interplay between Jeans analyses of velocity dispersions and millisecond-pulsar (MSP) timing measurements that trace line-of-sight accelerations to analyze the kinematics of Omega Centauri, performing the first combined analysis of its kind. By using HST proper motion data and recent MSP kinematic measurements, we are able to tightly
