    On the origin of Exponential Radial Profiles in Disk Galaxies
    The exponential radial profiles of spiral galaxies have been observed for decades with various explanations offered, but none of these explanations hold up now...

    Open questions on bar pattern speed with the Tremaine-Weinberg method
    Bars are prominent features observed in most disc galaxies, having a crucial role in the secular evolution of their hosts. Indeed, they redistribute material...

    Overdensities of powerful high-redshift starbursts revealed at 1.1 mm as possible proto-clusters
    AzTEC is a sensitive bolometer camera that, coupled with 10-15m-class sub-mm telescopes, has mapped more than 3 sq. deg of the extragalactic sky to depths...

    Physical conditions of starburst galaxies from LMT 3-mm spectra
    I will present the first Large Millimiter Telescope spectra of 4 nearby galaxies with known high star formation rates. The individual spectra were acquired with...

    Probing black hole-galaxy co-evolution from de-biased scaling relations
    It has been claimed for decades that almost all galaxies in the local Universe host at their centre a supermassive black hole (SMBH) the mass of which appears...

    Probing gamma-ray production in relativistic jets of flat spectrum radio quasars
    The MAGIC telescopes discovered very high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emission coming from the distant Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ) PKS 1222+21 (4C...
