Using cosmological hydrodynamic simulations with physically motivated models of supermassive black hole (SMBH) formation and growth, we compare the assembly of...

A deep survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud at ~0.1-100 TeV photon energies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array is planned. We assess the detection prospects...

From optical R-band data of the double quasar QSO 0957+561A,B, we made two new difference light curves (with an overlap of about 330d between the time-shifted...

Context. The present study addresses a key question related to our understanding of the relation between void galaxies and their environment: the relationship...

Using the high-resolution cosmological N-body simulation MareNostrum universe we study the orientation of shape and angular momentum of galaxy-size dark matter...

In this review I will discuss the current status on determinations of the dark matter content and distribution in Milky Way dwarf spheroidals, for which the...

We examine the outskirts of galaxy clusters in the C-EAGLE simulations to quantify the 'edges' of the stellar and dark matter distribution. The radius of the...

Within the hierarchical framework for galaxy formation, minor merging and tidal interactions are expected to shape all large galaxies to the present day. As a...

We use the integral-field spectrograph SAURON to measure the stellar line-of-sight velocity distribution and absorption line strengths out to four effective...
