We study the alignments of galaxy spin axes with respect to cosmic web filaments as a
function of various properties of the galaxies and their constituent bulges and discs. We …

We investigate how the ageing of stellar populations can drive a morphological
transformation in galaxies whose star formation (SF) activity has been quenched on short …

We compare properties of classical and pseudo-bulges and properties of their hosting
galaxies selected from the MaNGA survey. Bulge types are identified based on the Sérsic …

We study the role of group infall in the assembly and dynamics of galaxy clusters in ΛCDM.
We select 10 clusters with virial mass M 200∼ 1014 from the cosmological hydrodynamical …

Many processes have been proposed to explain the quenching of star formation in spiral
galaxies and their transformation into S0s. These processes affect the bulge and disc in …

Context. Lenticular (S0) galaxies are known to derive from spiral galaxies. The fact that S0s
nearly obey the Tully-Fisher relation (TFR) at z~ 0 (as spirals have done in the last~ 9 Gyr) is …

Lenticular galaxies are generally thought to have descended from spirals via morphological
transformation, although recent numerical simulations have shown that minor or even major …

The CALIFA team has recently found that the stellar angular momentum and concentration
of late-type spiral galaxies are incompatible with those of lenticular galaxies (S0s) …

We review the observed morphological, photometric, and kinematic properties of
boxy/peanut (B/P) shape bulges. Nearly half of the bulges in the nearby edge-on galaxies …

Despite numerous efforts, it is still unclear whether lenticular galaxies (S0s) evolve from
spirals whose star formation was suppressed, or formed trough mergers or disc instabilities …
