Descripción
We present preliminary results of the kinematics of HII regions and diffuse gas in the irregular galaxies IC10 and NGC 4449. From Fabry-Perot Hα and [SII] observations, we have measured the radial velocities and velocity dispersions of the HII regions in these galaxies and compared them with a similar analysis done in the Small Magellanic Cloud. We study the interactions between massive stars and the interstellar medium in these galaxies via winds and supernovae. In order to do this, we have identified regions with enhanced [SII]/Hα emission, that are SNR candidates.

    Star Formation Histories of Early-Type Dwarf Galaxies in the Fornax Cluster
    Given their low surface brightness, it is hard to determine high-quality spectra of dwarf galaxies outside the Local Group, where it is not possible to study the individual stars. Although several studies exist that use absorption line lengths to study the stellar populations of dwarf galaxies, studies of the Star Formation Histories in these

    An extreme ultra-diffuse galaxy with the mass of the Small Magellanic Cloud
    Extremely faint galaxies (mu_V>27 mag/arcsec^2), have only been discovered in the Local Group. These galaxies are very low in mass (tens of 10^5 Msun) and compact (effective radius <1 kpc). These objects populate the least massive dark matter haloes capable of producing stars, providing us with valuable insights into the nature of star formation at

    Unveiling galaxy protoclusters in the era of Euclid
    How large-scale structures formed in the early universe is a key cosmological question with few answers from empirical evidence. Unveiling galaxy clusters and their high-z progenitors (i.e., protoclusters) is essential to picture galaxy evolution drawn by the hierarchical formation scenario. However, unveiling these early structures at high
