A Preliminary Budget for the Ionizing Photons in HII Regions of M51
The purpose of this work is to quantify the ionizing photon budget in the HII regions, deriving the fraction of the Lyman continuum (Lyc) absorbed by dust or...
A Preliminary Budget for the Ionizing Photons in the H II Regions of M51
Using HST/ACS broad- and narrow-band (Hα) images of M51 we have examined the ionizing radiation budget in a set of luminous H II regions in a spiral arm between...
A preliminary comparison of observed and theoretical frequencies for some Delta Scuti stars on the Pleiades cluster
The study of δ Scuti stars in a cluster allows to consider that all the objects have the same age, chemical composition and distance. In addition to this, the...
A probabilistic formulation of evolutionary synthesis models: implications for SED fittings
Evolutionary synthesis models (ESM) have been extensively used to obtain the star formation history in galaxies by means of SED fitting. Implicit in this use of...
A probability distribution for the amplitude of Solar Cycle 25
We suggest a method to calculate the probability for the maximum amplitude of Solar Cycle 25 using Bayesian inference. We illustrate this approach with the...
A prototype system for the Permanent All Sky Survey (PASS) project is presented. PASS is a continuous photometric survey of the entire celestial sphere with a...
We report on a spectroscopic study of the unusual Li-rich red giant (RG) recently discovered in NGC 6819. This star was observed by the Apache Point Observatory...
