    Constraining the reflective properties of WASP-178 b using CHEOPS photometry
    Context. Multiwavelength photometry of the secondary eclipses of extrasolar planets is able to disentangle the reflected and thermally emitted light radiated...

    Constraining the regular Galactic magnetic field with the 5-year WMAP polarization measurements at 22 GHz
    Context. The knowledge of the regular (large scale) component of the Galactic magnetic field gives important information about the structure and dynamics of the...

    Constraining the shaping mechanism of the Red Rectangle through the spectro-polarimetry of its central star
    We carried out high-sensitivity spectro-polarimetric observations of the central star of the Red Rectangle protoplanetary nebula with the aim of constraining...

    Constraining the thick disc formation scenario of the Milky Way
    Aims: More than 30 years after its discovery, the thick disc of the Milky Way is not fully explored. We examine the shape of the thick disc in order to gain...

    Constraining the top-light initial mass function in the extended ultraviolet disk of M 83
    Context. The universality or non-universality of the initial mass function (IMF) has significant implications for determining star formation rates and star...

    Constraints on particle acceleration in SS433/W50 from MAGIC and H.E.S.S. observations
    Context. The large jet kinetic power and non-thermal processes occurring in the microquasar SS 433 make this source a good candidate for a very high-energy (VHE...

    Constraints on the cosmic equation of state: Age conflict versus phantom energy. Age-redshift relations in an accelerated universe
    The currently available values and confidence limits for Ωm0, H0 and globular cluster ages still indicate that the dark energy that dominates the Universe could...

    Constraints on the exosphere of CoRoT-7b
    Context. The small radius and high density of CoRoT-7b implies that this transiting planet belongs to a different species than all transiting planets previously...

    Constraints on the use of Be I lines for deriving beryllium abundances in late-type dwarf stars.
    Beryllium is a key element for constraining mixing processes taking place in the interiors of late-type dwarfs, and this paper investigates the use of neutral...
