Design, fabrication, and testing of aluminum mirrors for the cold optics of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias (IAC) infrared camera
The Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias infrared camera is intended as a common user instrument for the Cassegrain focus of the Carlos Sanchez Telescope at the...
Design-considerations For A Ground-based Transit Survey To Find Habitable Planets Around L And T Dwarfs
Detection of planets in the habitable zone is one of the key drivers of the exoplanet science community. We present a detailed strategy for such detection...
Detailed Bayesian Analysis of the CoRoT-7 Lightcurve
With a mass of 7.4 Earth masses and radius of 1.6 Earth radii, CoRoT-7b is among the smallest transiting planets found to date. Due to its small size, the...
Detailed chemical abundances of solar analogs with and without planets: no terrestial planet connection
We present the detailed chemical abundance patterns of 95 solar analogs, 24 hosting planets and 71 without detected planets, using very high-quality HARPS and...
Detailed design of the imaging magnetograph eXperiment-ImaX: a visible imager magnetograph for the Sunrise mission
In this work, it is described the Imaging Magnetograph eXperiment, IMaX, one of the three postfocal instruments of the Sunrise mission. The Sunrise project...
Detailed Elemental Abundances of a Super-Neptune Host Star Using High-resolution, Near-infrared Spectroscopy
We present the first elemental abundance measurements of the K dwarf (K6) exoplanet-host star WASP-107 using high-resolution (R~45,000), near-infrared (H- and K...
Detailed Magnetic Field Morphology of the Vela C Molecular Cloud from the BLASTPol 2012 flight
In order to understand the role of magnetic fields in the process of star formation, we require detailed observations of field morphology on scales ranging from...
Detailed processes accompanying the decay of an active region
The decay of a small solar active region is studied with high-resolution magnetograms. The reduction process made it possible to match intensity and magnetic...
