DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Enrica Iodice (INAF/OACN)\n\n\n\nThe new generation 
 of all-sky surveys is pushing astronomy into the low-surface-brightness re
 gime\, where the relics of galaxy mass assembly are preserved. In this con
 text\, ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs)\, among the faintest and most diffuse
  galaxies known\, provide key tests of the ΛCDM paradigm and the baryonic
  counterparts of low-mass dark matter halos. Recent deep imaging surveys h
 ave significantly expanded the census of UDGs\, showing that they account 
 for ~5–8% of the galaxy population. <br>In this talk I would like to i) 
 briefly review the state-of-the art on UDGs’ science\, from both observa
 tional and theoretical sides\, providing how much this field of research i
 mproved thanks to the advances in instrument developments\, ii) illustrate
  the groundbreaking results we are obtaining by two large projects that I 
 am leading: 1) Exploring the extreme universe: a preview of the galaxy Str
 ucture to be Unveiled from the Next geneRatIon aStronomical survEys (SUNRI
 SE)\, focused on the detection and analysis of UDGs from deep imaging surv
 eys\, and follow-up integral-field spectroscopy  from 2) Looking into the
  faintEst WIth MUSE (LEWIS). \n \n\nJoin Zoom Meeting  \n \n\n\nhttps:
