    The Impact of Nuclear Star Formation on Gas Inflow to AGN
    Our adaptive optics observations of nearby AGN at spatial resolutions as small as 0.″085 show strong evidence for recent, but no longer active, nuclear star...

    The Impact of Starbursts in the Halos of Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies (A Proposal for OSIRIS)
    We propose to perform deep narrow band imaging in several emission lines of interest for a sample of blue compact dwarf galaxies at the GTC, with the OSIRIS...

    The implications of the surprising existence of a large, massive CO disk in a distant protocluster
    It is not yet known if the properties of molecular gas in distant protocluster galaxies are significantly affected by their environment as galaxies are in local...

    The importance of galaxy interactions in triggering type II quasar activity
    We present deep Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph-South optical broad-band images for a complete sample of 20 Sloan Digital Sky Survey selected type II quasars...

    The Importance of Having an Extended Point-spread Function in Low Surface-brightness Science
    Obtaining and characterizing the extended point-spread function (PSF) is essential to extract accurate photometric information from deep imaging surveys. In...

    The importance of the local density in shaping the galaxy stellar mass functions
    Exploiting the capabilities of four different surveys - the Padova-Millennium Galaxy and Group Catalogue (PM2GC), the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey...

    The importance of warm, AGN-driven outflows in the nuclear regions of nearby ULIRGs
    We present an optical spectroscopic study of a 90 per cent complete sample of nearby ULIRGs (z 0.175) with optical Seyfert nuclei, with the aim of...

    The imprints of bars on the vertical stellar population gradients of galactic bulges
    This is the second paper of a series aimed to study the stellar kinematics and population properties of bulges in highly inclined barred galaxies. In this work...

    The incidence of bar-like kinematic flows in CALIFA galaxies
    We carry out a direct search for bar-like non-circular flows in intermediate-inclination, gas-rich disc galaxies with a range of morphological types and...
