The vertical structure of the spiral galaxy NGC 3501: first stages of the formation of a thin metal-rich disc (2023)
Journal Article
Sattler, N., Pinna, F., Neumayer, N., Falcón-Barroso, J., Martig, M., Gadotti, D. A., …Minchev, I. (2023). The vertical structure of the spiral galaxy NGC 3501: first stages of the formation of a thin metal-rich disc. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 520(2), 3066-3079. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stad275

We trace the evolution of the edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 3501, making use of its stellar populations extracted from deep integral-field spectroscopy MUSE observations. We present stellar kinematic and population maps, as well as the star formation his...

On the accretion of a new group of galaxies on to Virgo – II. The effect of pre-processing on the stellar population content of dEs (2022)
Journal Article
Bidaran, B., La Barbera, F., Pasquali, A., Peletier, R., van de Ven, G., Grebel, E. K., …Coccato, L. (2022). On the accretion of a new group of galaxies on to Virgo – II. The effect of pre-processing on the stellar population content of dEs. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 515(3), 4622-4638. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac2005

Using MUSE spectra, we investigate how pre-processing and accretion on to a galaxy cluster affect the integrated stellar population properties of dwarf early-type galaxies (dEs). We analyse a sample of nine dEs with stellar masses of ∼109M⊙⁠, which w... Read More about On the accretion of a new group of galaxies on to Virgo – II.

Revisiting the role of bars in AGN fuelling with propensity score sample matching (2022)
Journal Article
Silva-Lima, L. A., Martins, L. P., Coelho, P. R., & Gadotti, D. A. (2022). Revisiting the role of bars in AGN fuelling with propensity score sample matching. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 661, Article A105. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202142432

The high luminosity displayed by an active galactic nucleus (AGN) requires that gas be transported to the centre of the galaxy by some mechanism. Bar-driven processes are often pointed out in this context and a number of studies have addressed the ba...

The effects of AGN feedback on the structural and dynamical properties of Milky Way-mass galaxies in cosmological simulations (2022)
Journal Article
Irodotou, D., Fragkoudi, F., Pakmor, R., Grand, R. J., Gadotti, D. A., Costa, T., …Marinacci, F. (2022). The effects of AGN feedback on the structural and dynamical properties of Milky Way-mass galaxies in cosmological simulations. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 513(3), 3738-3787. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac1143

Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) has become established as a fundamental process in the evolution of the most massive galaxies. Its impact on Milky Way (MW)-mass systems, however, remains comparatively unexplored. In this work, we use the...
