Near-infrared atlas of S0-Sa galaxies (NIRS0S)
We present an atlas of Ks-band images of 206 early-type galaxies, including 160 S0-S0/a galaxies, 12 ellipticals and 33 Sa galaxies (+ one later type). The...
Near-infrared cross-dispersed spectroscopy of brown dwarf candidates in the UpperSco association
We present near-infrared (1.15-2.50μm) medium-resolution (R = 1700) spectroscopy of a sample of 23 brown dwarf candidates in the young UpperSco association. We...
Near-infrared identification of the counterpart to X1908+075: a new OB-supergiant X-ray binary
We report the near-infrared (near-IR) identification of the likely counterpart to X1908+075, a highly absorbed Galactic X-ray source recently suspected to...
Near-infrared polarimetric adaptive optics observations of NGC 1068: a torus created by a hydromagnetic outflow wind
We present J' and K' imaging linear polarimetric adaptive optics observations of NGC 1068 using MMT-Pol on the 6.5-m MMT. These observations allow us to study...
Near-infrared spectroscopic indices for unresolved stellar populations. III. Composite indices definition as age and metallicity tracers and model comparison
Recent advances in the stellar population studies of unresolved galaxies in the NIR domain demonstrated that it contains several line-strength indices to be...
Near-infrared spectroscopy of nearby Seyfert galaxies - I. First results
We present near-infrared 1.5-2.5μm moderate-resolution long-slit spectra of two Seyfert 1 galaxies (NGC 1097 and 1566), three Seyfert 2s (NGC 1386, 4945 and...
Near-infrared spectroscopy of the circumnuclear star formation regions in M100: evidence for sequential triggering
We present low-resolution (R~450) K-band spectroscopy for 16 of the 43 circumnuclear star-forming knots in M100 identified by Ryder & Knapen. We compare our...
Near-quiescent photometry of the X-ray transient J0422+32
We present I-band photometry of the soft X-ray transient (SXT) J0422+32 taken during a low-brightness state over two weeks in 1993 October. The object had a...
