The MANIFEST fibre system provides a highly versatile feed for the GMACS and G-CLEF first-light spectrographs on the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). Combining these low- and high-resolution optical spectrographs with the wide field of view…
The InterGalactic Magnetic Field (IGMF), which could permeate the cosmic voids but was never detected so far, is considered a relic of the early Universe. Constraints on its strength $B$ can be derived from its influence on time-delayed…
Aims: $\gamma$ rays can be used as a tracer in the search of sources of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs). We present deep observations of the Galactic Centre (GC) region with the MAGIC telescopes, which we use for inferring the underlying CR…
Reconstructing high-quality images with sharp edges requires the use of edge-preserving constraints in the regularized form of the inverse problem. The use of the $\ell_q$-norm on the gradient of the image is a common such constraint. For…
The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is home to many HII regions, which may lead to significant outflows. We examine the LMC's multiphase gas ($T\sim10^{4-5}$ K) in HI, SII, SiIV, and CIV using 110 stellar sight lines from the HST's Ultraviolet…
