The origin of ultracompact dwarfs (UCDs), a class compact stellar systems discovered two decades ago, still remains matter debate. Recent discoveries central supermassive black holes in UCDs likely inherited from their massive progenitor galaxies provide support for the tidal stripping hypothesis. At same time, on statistical grounds, some might be representatives high luminosity tail globular cluster function. Here we present detection $3.3^{+1.4}_{-1.2}\times10^6\,M_{\odot}$ hole ($1σ$...

(Abridged) To understand if the morphology-density and passive-density relations are already established at z>1.5, we study galaxies in 16 confirmed clusters $1.3<z<2.8$ from CARLA survey. Our main finding is that place $z\sim2$. The cluster z = 2.8 shows a similar fraction of ETG as other its densest region. passive fractions depend on local environment mildly galaxy mass. They do not global environment. At lower densities, exhibit than 1. This implies regions influence morphology first,...

The circumstellar envelopes (CSE) of Cepheids are still only poorly characterized despite their potential impact on the distance determination via both period-luminosity relation and parallax-of-pulsation method. This paper aims to investigate Galactic across instability strip in mid-infrared with MATISSE/VLTI order constrain geometry physical nature (gas and/or dust) CSEs. We secured observations eight short- up long-period pulsations L, M, N bands. For each star, we calibrated flux...

To use the period-luminosity relations of Cepheids to derive distances extragalactic Cepheids, it is crucial have reliable estimations luminosity such stars. However, light curves (LCs) are sparsely sampled, which makes interpolation difficult. Our purpose create general templates Cepheid LCs that can be efficiently applied with only a few parameters, while ensuring they in terms resulting mean magnitudes. We also aimed provide adaptable for large variety photometric bands enlarge their...

The application of the parallax-of-pulsation (PoP) technique to determine distances pulsating stars implies use a scaling parameter, namely projection factor ( p -factor), which is required transform disc-integrated radial velocities (RVs) into photospheric expansion velocities. value this parameter poorly known and still debated.

Low-mass early-type galaxies, including dwarf spheroidals (dSph) and brighter ellipticals (dE), dominate the galaxy population in groups clusters. Recently, an additional of more extended ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs) has been identified, sparking a discussion on potential morphological evolutionary connections between three classifications. Here, we present first measurements spatially resolved stellar kinematics from deep integrated-light spectra KDG 64 (UGC 5442), large dSph M 81 group....

Observational studies of ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) represent a significant challenge because their very low surface brightnesses. A feasible approach is to identify "future" UDGs when stars are still young. Using data mining, we found 12 such low-mass spatially extended quiescent in the Coma and Abell 2147 clusters SDSS legacy galaxy sample followed them up using new high-throughput Binospec spectrograph at 6.5m MMT.
