Dating the formation of the counter‐rotating stellar disc in the spiral galaxy NGC 5719 by disentangling its stellar populations★

TL;DR: The results of the VLT/VIMOS integral field spectroscopic observations of the inner 28 × 28 arcsec 2 (3.1 × 3.1 kpc 2 ) of the interacting spiral NGC 5719, which is known to host two cospatial counter-rotating stellar discs, are presented in this article.
