Description
In 2010 we started a spectroscopic survey to obtain visible and near-infrared spectra of primitive asteroids in the main belt. The main objective was to characterize the collisional families located in the inner part of the belt, and believed to be the origin of primitive near-Earth asteroids, in particular those that are the targets of two sample-return missions (OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa2). Now we have extended this survey, called PRIMitive Asteroids Spectroscopic Survey (PRIMASS) to observe other families of primitive asteroids in the rest of the belt, as well as groups like the Cybeles or Hildas. We have created a library that contains all the obtained spectra (PRIMASS-L) and that we intend to make available to all the planetary science community.

    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
