Description
Recent advances in observational techniques and theoretical modelling of galaxy kinematics allow us to use more than just optical morphology to discern the structure and dynamics of galaxies. Here, we show for three barred galaxies (UGC 10205, NGC 6221 and NGC4340) that both kinematics and photometry are necessary to fully understand the properties of these galaxies. Kinematic and spectrophotometric data enable us to detect structures such as bars and gas shocks that are not directly visible in the images; conversely, imaging can be crucial for understanding the kinematic and dynamical behavior of a galaxy.

    European Solar telescope preliminary optical design
    The European Solar Telescope (EST) will be part of the next generation of ground-based solar telescopes. With a primary mirror of 4.2 meters, it will be the largest solar telescope ever built in Europe offering a large collecting area and extremely sharp images, due to the Adaptive Optics (AO) system integrated within the optical path to compensate

    Magnetic activity of red giants: linking chromospheric indicators, oscillations amplitude, and tidal interactions
    According to dynamo theory, stars with convective envelopes efficiently generate surface magnetic fields, which manifest as magnetic activity in the form of starspots, faculae, and/or flares, when their rotation period is shorter than their convective turnover time. Most red giants, having undergone significant spin down while expanding, have slow

    GLACE survey: a window on the evolution of galaxies within clusters. Revealing galaxy evolution within Zw Cl0024.0+1652
    The GLACE (GaLAxy Cluster Evolution) survey represents a groundbreaking effort to explore the evolution of galaxies within galaxy clusters. Using data from the Gran Telescopio de Canarias (GTC), GLACE investigates emission line galaxies (ELGs) and active galactic nuclei (AGN) hosts across various redshifts. Recent observations within the ZwCl 0024
