Understanding the physical processes that regulate star formation and galaxy evolution are major areas of activity in modern astrophysics. Nearby galaxies offer unique opportunities to inspect interstellar medium (ISM), star formation (SF), radiative ...

Galaxy clusters as astrophysical laboratories and probes of cosmology [PDF]
Galaxy clusters are the most recent of cosmological structures to have formed by the present time in the currently favoured hierarchical scenario of structure formation and are widely regarded as powerful probes of cosmology and galaxy formation physics alike.

A catalog to unite them all: REGALADE, a revised galaxy compilation for the advanced detector era
Context. Many applications in transient science, gravitational wave follow-up, and galaxy population studies require all-sky galaxy catalogs with reliable distances, extents, and stellar masses.

Color dichotomy and gradients in the bulges and disks of EFIGI galaxies along the Hubble sequence
Context. One of the most outstanding questions in contemporary astrophysics is: What is the significance of galaxy morphology? What physical processes underlie the morphologies we observe and is a galaxy’s internal structure shaping its evolution (nature)

The Tip of Red Giant Branch Distances to Nearby Dwarf Galaxies WLM and Sextans A with JWST
Distance measurements to extragalactic systems that are both accurate and precise are cornerstones of modern astrophysics, underpinning the calibration of standard candles and the determination of the Hubble constant.
