Context. The Hubble Ultra Deep field (HUDF) is the deepest region ever observed with the Hubble Space Telescope. With the main objective of unveiling the nature...
The multichord stellar occultation on 2019 October 22 by the trans-Neptunian object (84922) 2003 VS<SUB>2</SUB>
Context. Stellar occultations have become one of the best techniques to gather information about the physical properties of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs)...
The Number of Dwarf Satellites of Disk Galaxies versus their Bulge Mass in the Standard Model of Cosmology
There is a correlation between the bulge mass of the three main galaxies of the Local Group (LG), i.e., M31, Milky Way (MW), and M33, and the number of their...
The obliquity and atmosphere of the hot Jupiter WASP-122b (KELT-14b) with ESPRESSO: An aligned orbit and no sign of atomic or molecular absorption
Thanks to their short orbital periods and hot extended atmospheres, hot Jupiters are ideal candidates for atmosphere studies with high- resolution spectroscopy...
Aims: Occultations of bright stars by planets provide information on the state of their atmospheres. An occultation of the bright star 45 Capricornii (HIP...
The OmegaWhite Survey for short period variable stars - II. An overview of results from the first four years
OmegaWhite is a wide-field, high cadence, synoptic survey targeting fields in the southern Galactic plane, with the aim of discovering short period variable...
The onset of solar cycle 24. What global acoustic modes are telling us
We study the response of the low-degree, solar p-mode frequencies to the unusually extended minimum of solar surface activity since 2007. A total of 4768 days...
WASP-4 b is a hot Jupiter exhibiting a decreasing orbital period, prompting investigations into potential mechanisms driving its evolution. We analysed 173...
The orientation of galaxy dark matter haloes around cosmic voids
Using the Millennium N-body Simulation we explore how the shape and angular momentum of galaxy dark matter haloes surrounding the largest cosmological voids are...
