Abstract

We present the scientific highlights of ten years of exploitation of the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer (MUSE) Guaranteed Time Observations performed in the context of the MUSE collaboration. These ten years have been particularly rich in discoveries and have resulted in more than 120 refereed papers. In this article we focus on the main results, grouped into four broad topical categories: resolved stellar populations, nearby galaxies, galaxy demographics, and the circumgalactic medium.
