The recent detection of optical emission lines from the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in combined, large samples of low-redshift, normal galaxy spectra hints at the potential to map the cool ($\sim$ 10$^4$ K) CGM in individual, representative…

Although the existence of a faint background of starlight in the core of the Coma cluster has been well established (1,2), its origin is uncertain. This vast sea of stars could have formed outside the galaxies, using gas left over from the…

We present an analysis of archival {\it HST/ACS} imaging in the F475W ($g_{475}$), F606W ($V_{606}$) and F814W ($I_{814}$) bands of the globular cluster (GC) system of a large (3.4 kpc effective radius) ultra-diffuse galaxy (DF17) believed…

We report the results from a 200 ks Chandra observation of the z=1.786 radio galaxy 3C294 and its cluster environment, increasing by tenfold our earlier observation. The diffuse emission, extending about 100 kpc around the nucleus, has a…

We have obtained deep photometry of NGC 1199 (in HCG 22) and NGC 6868 (in the Telescopium group). Both galaxies are the optically brightest galaxies of their groups. Our analysis of B and R images taken with the Keck II and the VLT/ESO…

[Abridged] The Coma cluster luminosity function (LF) from ultraviolet (2000 AA) to the near-infrared (H band) is summarized. In the UV the LF is very steep, much steeper than in the optical. The steep Coma UV LF implies that faint and…

Clusters of galaxies are believed to be at the intersections of cosmological filaments and to grow by accreting matter from these filaments. Such continuous infall has major consequences not only on clusters but also on the physics of…

[Abridged] We searched for diffuse stellar emission around BCGs in three of the most X-ray luminous clusters found at z~0.3 in the REFLEX cluster survey and observed with XMM-Newton. These systems (RXCJ0014.3-3022, RXCJ0232.2-4420, and…

We present 0".2-resolution Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations at 870 um for 25 Halpha-seleced star-forming galaxies (SFGs) around the main-sequence at z=2.2-2.5. We detect significant 870 um continuum emission in 16…

We present a far-ultraviolet (FUV) study of the globular cluster M30 (NGC 7099). The images were obtained using the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS/SBC, F150LP, FUV) and the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2, F300W, UV) which were both…

The Galactic object MWC 137 was suggested to belong to the group of B[e] supergiants. However, with its large-scale optical bipolar ring nebula and the high velocity jet and knots, it is a rather atypical representative of this class. We…
