"Dark matter and the MOND phenomenology in galaxies." We discuss the phenomenology of dark matter at galactic scales and the intriguing MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics) formula for the rotation curves of galaxies, the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) and the radial acceleration relation...
Les journées européennes du patrimoine 2025 auront lieu du 19 au 21 septembre. Le Jardin des sciences organise de nombreuses activités. Une visite de l'Observatoire astronomique est prévue le dimanche 21 septembre à 16h, mais elle est déjà complète. Vous pouvez consulter le programme...
"Analyzing the millimeter to centimeter emission of nearby galaxies" Compared to the well-studied infrared and radio domains, galaxy emission in the millimeter–centimeter range (300–30 GHz) has been far less explored. This domain is challenging to study due to faint signals, overlapping...
"Faint but not forgotten: what simulations reveal about Low Surface Brightness Galaxies" Low Surface Brightness Galaxies (LSBGs) constitute a substantial fraction of galaxies in the local Universe, being primarily bulge-less, late-type galaxies, bluer and more gas-rich than their high surface...
"Dynamics of galaxies as probes to constrain gravity models" In this thesis, we test cosmological and gravitational models (ΛCDM and MOND) using idealized galaxy simulations. Ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the Coma cluster exhibit higher velocity dispersions than MOND predicts. Our MOND...
"Vz-GAL: Probing Cold Molecular Gas in Dusty Star-forming Galaxies at z=1-6." Reconstructing the physical mechanisms that have shaped present-day galaxies remains a primary goal in observational cosmology. I will introduce the Vz-GAL VLA CO(1–0) Survey, a comprehensive endeavor targeting...
"Formation of Fornax dwarf spheroidal and the survival of its globular clusters " The presence of globular clusters (GCs) in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal is an important test of the theories aiming to address the missing mass problem. The problem is that in most of them, the GCs are expected to...
"NOEMA3D: Inflowing Gas at Subgalactic Scales in Massive Star Forming Galaxies at z~1-2" How is gas transported within galaxies at cosmic noon? What is the role of bars and spiral arms in the build-up of galactic structures? To try to answer these questions I will present NOEMA3D, an ongoing...
"Do the stellar streams of the Milky Way point to a past Milky Way-Andromeda interaction?"Stellar streams around the Milky Way (MW) can provide valuable insights into its history and substructure formation. Previous studies suggested that several MW streams could have a correlated origin with the...
"Confronting the Cosmological Principle: How secure are the foundations of the cosmos?" I will present our recent work using quasars and radio galaxies to test the cosmological principle—the foundation of modern cosmology. While this principle states the universe is isotropic and homogeneous,...
