The detection of the transiting extrasolar planet CoRoT-9b has just been reported (Deeg et al. 2010). With a semi-major axis of 0.41 astronomical unit on a...

CoRoT-9b is the first temperate transiting exoplanet. With a semi-major axis of 0.41 AU on a quasi-circular orbit, this is the first transiting planet far...

Despite theoretical predictions on the existence of solar gravity oscillations (g modes), their detection is still marginal. The main reasons are their...

Using a resonant scattering spectrophotometer the authors measured the radial velocity of the Sun at the K I 769.9 nm line with very high resolution and...

Analysis of solar velocity data obtained at Izaña (Tenerife) over the years 1981 - 1985, has shown the existence of significant signals in the frequency range...

So far, surface magnetic fields have never been reported on Mira stars, while observational facilities allowing detection and measurement of weak surface fields...

The authors present the preliminary results of a search for near-infrared counterparts of compact H II regions and/or H2O masers in the Galactic Plane, probably...

We discuss methods and preliminary results in a search for variable stars in the Carina dSph galaxy. This galaxy presents a complex star formation history and...
