A comprehensive empirical investigation of Galactic fast-rotating O-type stars
Rotation is one of the important parameters affecting the evolution and final fate of massive stars but the origin of fast rotators remains unclear (imprint of...
A comprehensive observational study of the young barred galaxy NGC 3359
We combine H_α and broad-band optical imaging and H_α velocity mapping over the face of the barred galaxy NGC 3359, obtained within the BARS programme on the...
A comprehensive study of low-mass X-ray binaries in the Spitzer archive
We propose a systematic study of all observations of black hole and neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the Spitzer archive. At least 125 unique...
A comprehensive study of the WASP-74 planetary system
In this work, we present new transit observations of the hot Jupiter WASP-74 b using the high-resolution spectrograph HARPS-N and the multi-color simultaneous...
A Conference Organised by the ING on the Nature of V838 Monocerotis and Its Spectacular Light Echo
The ING is organising a conference on "The Nature of V838 Mon and Its Light Echo", that will be held from May 16th to 19th, 2006, in the Hotel H10 Taburiente...
A consideration of the solar cycle in the light of the behavior of the large active regions
The solar cycle was studied by considering only the large active regions (AR), with small region data being ignored. Results show that at birth almost all the...
A Consistent Picture of Gas Kinematics within Nuclear Rings
We present two-dimensional Hα velocity fields for ten well-defined nuclear rings observed with the DensePak fiber-optic array on the KPNO WIYN telescope. In...
A Constraint on brown dwarf formation via ejection: radial variation of the stellar and substellar mass function of the young open cluster IC 2391
Using the Wide Field Imager (WFI) at the ESO 2.2 m telescope at La Silla and the CPAPIR camera at the CTIO 1.5 m telescope at Cerro Tololo, we have performed an...
