Description
OTELO (OSIRIS Tunable filter Emission Line Objects) is an emission-line object survey covering a spectral range between 9070 and 9280Å in a window of reduced airglow emission. The first pointing of OTELO, in the Extented Groth Strip, consists of 36 tomographic slices sampled at 6Å, obtained with the red tunable filter of OSIRIS at the Gran Telescopio de Canarias. The limiting flux detecte of ˜5×10^{-20} erg s^{-1} cm^{2} makes it the deepest survey in its category to date. Taking advantage of OTELO survey characteristics in selection of Emission Line Systems (ELS) we aim to present qualitative and quantitative morphological analysis of ELS and non-ELS in a specific redshift ranges (given by specific emission line, e.g Hα at z˜0.4 or [OIII] at z˜0.8) up to z=2 using HST-ACS high resolution images. The source selection process, Sérsic profile fitting, the visual morphology classification and a preliminary results are presented.

    ROSALIA: ROman Sky Analyst for Low surface brightness Imaging & Astronomy
    Diffuse emission in the outskirts of galaxies, such as stellar tidal streams, galaxy stellar halos and intracluster light, provides important constraints on the structure and evolution of the Universe. However, such low surface brightness diffuse emission can be up to thousands of times dimmer (>29 AB mag/[square arcseconds]) than the sky

    A Systematic Search for and Characterization of White Dwarf Binaries Across the H-R Diagram
    White dwarfs (WDs) are the endpoint of evolution for 97% of stars. Most of these stars are in multiple systems, and a significant fraction of those are compact enough to exchange mass, altering the structures and subsequent evolution of both stars. The physical mechanisms that facilitate these mass exchanges include common envelope evolution, Roche

    The molecular gas perspective on the growth and death of H emitters in the Spiderweb protocluster at Alpha z=2.16
    Galaxy clusters at low redshift are dominated by massive quiescent galaxies hosting stellar populations 10 Gyrs old, indicating that they were formed in the early universe when clusters were still in the process of being assembled (i.e., protoclusters). The rapid growth of galaxies within protoclusters is driven by the efficient transformation of
