We present a catalogue of positions, magnitudes and velocities for 3300 emission-line objects found by the Planetary Nebula Spectrograph in a survey of the Andromeda Galaxy, M31. Of these objects, 2615 are found likely to be planetary…

To probe the initial conditions for high-mass star and cluster formation, we investigate the properties of dense filaments within the infrared dark cloud G035.39-00.33 (IRDC G035.39) in a combined Very Large Array (VLA) and the Green Bank…

We present a kinematic analysis of the dust-lane elliptical NGC 5626 based on MUSE observations. These data allow to robustly classify this galaxy as a fast rotator and to infer a virial mass of $10^{11.7} M_\odot$, making it one of the…
