We have observed the $^{12}$CO J=2-1, J=3-2, and $^{13}$CO J=2-1 lines in a sample of seven giant molecular clouds in the Local Group spiral galaxy M33. The $^{12}$CO/$^{13}$CO J=2-1 line ratio is constant across the entire sample, while…
We present new MUSE observations of a galaxy group probed by a background quasar. The quasar sightline passes between multiple $z=0.28$ galaxies, whilst showing at the same redshift low ionised metal line species, including Ca II, Mg I, Mg…
HII galaxies are clumpy and their gas kinematics can be mapped to show the global turbulent motions and the effect of massive star evolution. The distribution of their physical conditions is homogeneous and oxygen abundance is uniform. The…
Stellar halos offer fossil evidence for hierarchical structure formation. Since halo assembly is predicted to be scale-free, stellar halos around low-mass galaxies constrain properties such as star formation in the accreted subhalos and the…
(Abridged) We present computations of the metals photoionization structures of pressure supported gas clouds in gravitationally dominant DM minihalos in the extended Galactic halo or LG environment. We consider low-metallicity (0.1-0.3…
Massive stars play an important role in the Universe. Unlike low-mass stars, the formation of these objects located at great distances is still unclear. It is expected to be governed by some combination of self-gravity, turbulence, and…
We use optical integral field spectroscopy and 8 and 24 micron mid-IR observations of the giant HII region NGC 588 in the disc of M33 as input and constraints for two-dimensional tailor-made photoionisation models. Two different geometrical…
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is discovering an increasing number of galaxies well into the early stages of the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). Many of these galaxies are clustered with strong Lyman alpha (Ly$\alpha$) emission,…
Ultracompact and hypercompact HII regions appear when a star with a mass larger than about 15 solar masses starts to ionize its own environment. Recent observations of time variability in these objects are one of the pieces of evidence that…
We present a new method to identify and characterize the structure of the intracluster medium (ICM) in simulated galaxy clusters. The method uses the median of gas properties, such as density and pressure, which we show to be very robust to…
We use narrow-band Halpha+[NII] imaging data gathered during VESTIGE, a blind survey of the Virgo cluster carried out with MegaCam at the CFHT, to identify HII regions in 385 galaxies showing ionised gas emission. We identify 76645 HII…
We present adaptive optics assisted integral field spectroscopy of nine Halpha-selected galaxies at z=0.84--2.23 selected from the HiZELS narrow-band survey. Our observations map the star-formation and kinematics of these representative…
We present a comprehensive statistical analysis of star-forming objects located in the vicinities of 1 360 bubble structures throughout the Galactic Plane and their local environments. The compilation of ~70 000 star-forming sources, found…
We report an observational study of the Galactic HII region Sh 2-305/S305 using the [CII] 158 $\mu$m line data, which are used to examine the gas dynamics and structure of photodissociation regions. The integrated [CII] emission map at…
We present a code for modelling the ionization conditions of optically thin astrophysical gas structures. Given the gas hydrogen density, equilibrium temperature, elemental abundances, and the ionizing spectrum, the code solves the…
Abridged: The small-- and intermediate--scale structure and the fraction of the ISM ionized by non--radiative processes is investigated in a small sample of four local starburst galaxies, imaged with the HST WFPC2. The sample comprises…
This work focuses on the gas chemical composition of CGCG007-025. This compact dwarf is undergoing a galaxy wide star forming burst, whose spatial behaviour has been observed by VLT/MUSE. We present a new line measurement library to treat…
We present single-dish (sub)millimeter observations of gas and dust in the Galactic high-mass star-forming region G19.61-0.23, with the aim of studying the large-scale properties and physical conditions of the molecular gas across the…
This work aims to derive the physical properties of the CNSFRs in the ring of the face-on spiral NGC 7742 using IFS observations. We have selected 88 individual ionising clusters that power HII regions populating the ring of the galaxy that…
We present the integral field spectroscopic observations of ionized gas (H$\alpha$ and [{\ion{N}{II}}]) using the PCWI, along with deep CO(2-1) observations by the $^\backprime\bar{\rm U}^\backprime\bar{\rm u}$ receiver on JCMT for AGC…
