    • Gas dynamics in tidal dwarf galaxies : disc formation at z=0 

      Lelli, F.; Duc, P. -A.; Brinks, E.; Bournaud, F.; McGaugh, S. S.; Lisenfeld, U.; Weilbacher, P. M.; Boquien, M.; Revaz, Y.; Braine, J.; Koribalski, B. S.; Belles, P.E. (2015-12)
      Tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs) are recycled objects that form within the collisional debris of interacting/merging galaxies. They are expected to be devoid of non-baryonic dark matter, since they can form only from dissipative ...
    • Strategies for optimal sky subtraction in the low surface brightness regime 

      Watkins, A. E.; Kaviraj, S.; Collins, C. C.; Knapen, J. H.; Kelvin, L. S.; Duc, P. -A.; Román, J.; Mihos, J. C. (2024-03-01)
      The low surface brightness (LSB) regime (μg  ≳  26 mag arcsec−2) comprises a vast, mostly unexplored discovery space, from dwarf galaxies to the diffuse interstellar medium. Accessing this regime requires precisely removing ...
    • Studying the spatially resolved Schmidt-Kennicutt law in interacting galaxies : The case of Arp 158 

      Boquien, M.; Lisenfeld, U.; Duc, P. -A.; Braine, J.; Bournaud, F.; Brinks, E.; Charmandaris, V. (2011-09)
      Context. Recent studies have shown that star formation in mergers does not seem to follow the same Schmidt-Kennicutt relation as in spiral disks, presenting a higher star formation rate (SFR) for a given gas column density. ...
