Descripción
Two time series, taken simultaneously in the G-band and the blue continuum, corrected for instrumental and atmospheric degradation using the method of phase diversity, are employed to study the motions of granules and G-band bright points (GBPs) in the moat of an old regular sunspot. Centres of diverging horizontal motions, identified with families of granules formed by recurrently splitting granules, move away from the sunspot. Most of GBPs show radially oriented motions in the same direction, with velocities comparable to those of adjacent granules. However, 7 % of GBPs move faster (>1.4 km s-1) than the neighbouring granules.

    ChronoGal: Unveiling the secrets of our Galaxy through stellar ages from Gaia Colour-Magnitude Diagrams
    The derivation of precise stellar ages is considered the current major challenge to reconstruct the chronological chain of events that shaped the Milky Way (MW). Despite much effort and hope have been deposited in upcoming asteroseismology works, we have shown that CMD-fitting already offers an alternative to age determinations via the derivation

    Witnessing the rapid growth of disk galaxies over cosmic time
    The Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes, with their outstanding depth and spatial resolution, are opening up the possibility of studying the edges of disk galaxies over a significant cosmic time interval. This allows us to study in detail the evolution of galaxy edges over the past 8 Gyr. The edge of galaxies, understood here as the farthest

    The Undiscovered Ultra Diffuse galaxies of the Local Group: predictions from constrained cosmological simulations
    Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) are attractive candidates to probe cosmological models and test theories of galaxy formation at low masses; however, they are difficult to detect because of their low surface brightness. In the Local Group a handful of UDGs have been found to date, most of which are satellites of the Milky Way and M31, and only two are
