  • Extragalactic Magnetism with SOFIA (SALSA Legacy Program). V. First Results on the Magnetic Field Orientation of Galaxies
    We present the analysis of the magnetic field (B-field) structure of galaxies measured with far-infrared (FIR) and radio (3 and 6 cm) polarimetric observations. We use the first data release of the Survey of extragALactic magnetiSm with SOFIA of 14 nearby ( $\lt 20$ Mpc) galaxies with resolved ( $5^{\prime\prime} \mbox{--}18^{\prime\prime} ;$ 90 pc

  • Flares, Warps, Truncations, and Satellite: The Ultra-thin Galaxy UGC 11859
    The structure of the outskirts of galaxies provides valuable information about their past and evolution. Due to their projected orientation, edge-on isolated galaxies effectively serve as test labs in which to study the three-dimensional structures of galaxies, including warps and flares, and to explore the possible sources of such distortions. We

  • The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. A sub-Neptunian mass planet in the habitable zone of HN Lib
    We report the discovery of HN Lib b, a sub-Neptunian mass planet orbiting the nearby (d ≈ = 6.25 pc) M4.0 V star HN Lib detected by our CARMENES radial-velocity (RV) survey. We determined a planetary minimum mass of M b sin i = 5.46 ± 0.75 M ⊕ and an orbital period of P b = 36.116 ± 0.029 d, using ~5 yr of CARMENES data, as well as archival RVs

  • The massive relic galaxy NGC 1277 is dark matter deficient. From dynamical models of integral-field stellar kinematics out to five effective radii
    According to the Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmology, present-day galaxies with stellar masses M ⋆ > 10 11 M ⊙ should contain a sizable fraction of dark matter within their stellar body. Models indicate that in massive early-type galaxies (ETGs) with M ⋆ ≈ 1.5 × 10 11 M ⊙, dark matter should account for ∼15% of the dynamical mass within one

  • Mapping non-axisymmetric velocity fields of external galaxies
    Disc galaxies are typically in a stable configuration where matter moves in almost closed circular orbits. However, non-circular motions caused by distortions, warps, lopsidedness, or satellite interactions are common and leave distinct signatures on galaxy velocity maps. We develop an algorithm that uses an ordinary least squares method for

  • Spatially resolved mock observations of stellar kinematics: full radiative transfer treatment of simulated galaxies
    We present a framework to build realistic mock spectroscopic observations for state-of-the-art hydrodynamical simulations, using high spectral resolution stellar population models and full radiative transfer treatment with SKIRT. As a first application, we generate stellar continuum mock observations for the Auriga cosmological zoom simulations
