Lyα emission nebulae are ubiquitous around high-redshift galaxies and are tracers of the gaseous environment on scales out to ≳100 pkpc (proper kiloparsec). High-redshift radio galaxies (HzRGs, type-2 radio-loud quasars) host large-scale nebulae obse... Read More about 3D tomography of the giant Lyα nebulae of z ≈ 3–5 radio-loud AGN.

Journal Article
Ristea, A., Cortese, L., Fraser-McKelvie, A., Catinella, B., van de Sande, J., Croom, S. M., & Swinbank, A. M. (2024). The Tully–Fisher relation from SDSS-MaNGA: physical causes of scatter and variation at different radii.

The stellar mass Tully–Fisher relation (STFR) and its scatter encode valuable information about the processes shaping galaxy evolution across cosmic time. However, we are still missing a proper quantification of the STFR slope and scatter dependence...
