Stellar feedback redistributes gas in galaxies, shaping their star formation histories and the structure of the interstellar medium (ISM). Most previous studies of feedback-driven gas flows have focused on edge-on galaxies or examined only some of the wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum, limiting the ability to trace the full star formation cycle. Here, we present a multi-wavelength...

Apart from its manifest interest in the understanding of the first moments of the universe, the framework of cosmic inflation is also the best way we know to probe fundamental physics at very high energies. In particular, the spontaneous production of massive particles due to the expanding background can leave potentially visible imprints in cosmological correlation functions known as the...

Ultra Fast Outflows (UFOs) are sub-relativistic dense winds of wide aperture angle, launched from Active Galactic Nuclei, at which strong shocks (Mach number >> 1) are expected to form.
At these shocks, particle energisation through diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) should lead to the copious production of gamma rays and neutrinos, in the interaction of accelerated charged particles and...

Since 1995, more than 5,000 exoplanets have been discovered, largely thanks to the transit detection method. However, most exoplanetary systems do not exhibit transits, limiting this method to detecting only about 10% of existing exoplanets. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of exoplanet populations, alternative detection approaches are needed.

The timing argument (TA) associates the motion of the Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda Galaxy (M31) to their internal gravity, and aims to find the total mass of the Local Group (LG). However, the classical TA always overestimates the LG mass, presumably because it ignores the hierarchical scenario and other interactions such as that with the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).

Solar flares are fast increases in the X-ray flux. When they reach Earth, these energetic radiations ionize the atmosphere, increasing thus the electron density down to the lowest D-region of the ionosphere (60km). This, in turn, causes a greater absorption of the HF waves, which are frequency bands used by several actors like civil aviation and emergency services. Real-time detection of solar...
