Descripción
The chromatic behaviour of the IAC analyzer, commonly used at the German Vacuum Gregory-Coude telesope at the Spanish Observatorio del Teide (Canary Islands), is investigated. It is shown that, through careful alignment of the optical components, a nearly perfect circular analysis can be obtained at wavelengths of 4000 Å and 6000 Å. For other visible regions the crosstalk between linear and circular polarization can be always made lower than 10%.

    A new era in galaxy edge characterisation with ultra-deep imaging
    For the first time, the LIGHTS survey is routinely imaging galaxies at a depth and spatial resolution comparable to what LSST will produce in 10 years (i.e. ~31 mag/arcsec^2). This opens up the possibility of probing the edge of galaxies with a precision that we have not been able to achieve in the past. While we have been limited to one

    Exploring the role of galaxy interactions in fuelling active galactic nuclei: mergers, star formation, and supermassive black hole accretion
    Supermassive black holes require a reservoir of cold gas at the centre of their host galaxy in order to accrete and shine as active galactic nuclei (AGN). Major mergers have the ability to drive gas inwards through the strong tidal torques involved, but observations trying to link mergers with AGN have found mixed results due to the difficulty of

    Star formation at the edge of galaxies
    At the edge of galaxies, in the lowest surface brightness regimes, lies the boundary where gas can collapse to form new stars. These regions remain largely unexplored due to the lack of very deep images that allow us to characterize the star-forming clumps at the edge of the discs. In this sense, we do not know whether stellar activity in these
