Descripción
The peculiar giant extragalactic HII region NGC 588 has been observed with the TAURUS Fabry-Perot Spectrograph at the William Hershell Telescope of the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos. Velocity maps at the seeing limit were obtained in the lines of Hα and [OIII]lambda 5007. We have studied the kinematics of the gas and its relation with the planetary-like morphology of the gas, and discuss the possible mechanisms that may have taken part on its formation. The maps of the velocity dispersion of the ionized gas, together with the exam the emission line profiles, allow us to study the effect of the stellar winds of the massive stars that ionize the object on the ionized gas.

    Performance and first measurements of the MAGIC Stellar Intensity Interferometer
    In recent years, a technology developed between the 1950s and 1970s by the pioneering experiments of Hanbury Brown and Twiss has (re)emerged: the Stellar Intensity Interferometry (SII). Unlike amplitude interferometry, SII exploits a second-order effect that can be measured by correlating the light intensities at different detectors without the

    Distances to globular cluster-rich UDGs: The case of NGC1052-DF2
    Some ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are known to host very large globular cluster (GC) systems, clearly exceeding the expectations for galaxies with such low stellar mass and density and thereby challenging our understanding of star cluster formation and its connection to galaxy evolution. As bright point-sources, GCs in UDGs have been used as

    The luminosity functions of an homogeneous sample of 50 young nearby open clusters
    Open clusters are groups of coeval stars sharing properties such as distance and metallicity, and they are key to understanding stellar evolution. We shed light on the evolution of open clusters with a special focus on the universality of the luminosity function. We applied an upgraded version of the convergent point technique on about 50 open
