Aims. Extended-UV (XUV) galaxies are galaxies that present an extended outer ultraviolet disk. Although some giant low surface brightness (GLSB) galaxies are also XUV, their relation has been seldom studied. This work aims to determine whether a sample of nine XUV galaxies can be classified as GLSB galaxies, by analyzing their photometric

Context. Stellar activity variability is one of the main obstacles to the detection of Earth-like planets using the radial velocity (RV) method. Aims. The aim of this work is to measure the effect of activity in the spectra of M dwarfs and detect activity-sensitive lines in the near-infrared (NIR) to help improve exoplanet detection and

Aims. Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are typically identified through their distinctive X-ray or radio emissions, mid-infrared (MIR) colors, or emission lines. However, each method captures different subsets of AGN due to signal-to-noise (S/N) limitations, redshift coverage, and extinction effects, underscoring the necessity for a multiwavelength

Aims. We present time-series radial velocities of the G8 subgiant star β Aql obtained in 2022 and 2023 using SONG-Tenerife and, for the first time, SONG-Australia. We also analyse a sector of TESS photometry that overlapped with the 2022 SONG data. Methods. We processed the time series to assign weights and to remove bad data points. The resulting

Context. Theories of the formation and evolution of small bodies in planetary systems predict that they may escape into interstellar space at any time, leaked from extrasolar Oort clouds or ejected following close encounters with local planets or their host stars. After just two such interlopers – 1I/2017 U1 ('Oumuamua) and 2I/Borisov – had been

We explore the differences in gas-rich field ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) and diffuse classical dwarf galaxies using an extensive atomic gas (H I) follow-up survey of optically selected UDG candidates from the Systematically Measuring Ultra-diffuse Galaxies (SMUDGes) catalogue. We also compare the SMUDGes-H I observations with two state-of-the-art
