Context. Understanding how gas flows into galactic centres, fuels the active galactic nucleus (AGN), and is in turn expelled back through feedback processes is of great importance to appreciate the role AGN play in the growth and evolution of galaxies. Aims. We use Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer-adaptive optics (MUSE-AO) optical spectra of the

Precise space-based photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite results in a huge number of exoplanetary candidates. However, the masses of these objects are unknown and must be determined by ground-based spectroscopic follow-up observations, frequently revealing the companions to be low-mass stars rather than exoplanets. We present

We report two epochs of simultaneous near-infrared (IR) and X-ray observations of the low-mass X-ray binary black hole candidate Swift J1753.5–0127 with a subsecond time resolution during its long 2005–2016 outburst. Data were collected strictly simultaneously with VLT/ISAAC (K S band, 2.2 μm) and RXTE (2–15 keV) or XMM-Newton (0.7–10 keV). A clear

Context. We assess the effectiveness of a non-parametric bias model in generating mock halo catalogues for modified gravity (MG) cosmologies, relying on the distribution of dark matter from either MG or Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) simulations. Aims. We aim to generate halo catalogues that effectively capture the distinct impact of MG, ensuring high

Context. One way to constrain the evolutionary histories of galaxies is to analyse their stellar populations. In the local Universe, our understanding of the stellar population properties of galaxies has traditionally relied on the study of optical absorption and emission-line features. Aims. In order to overcome limitations intrinsic to this

Context. The future Euclid space satellite mission will offer an invaluable opportunity to constrain modifications to Einstein's general relativity at cosmic scales. In this paper, we focus on modified gravity models characterised, at linear scales, by a scale-independent growth of perturbations while featuring different testable types of
