13 out of 48 nova-likes in the 2.8-4 h orbital period range are eclipsing SW Sex stars - these are all the eclipsing cataclysmic variables (CVs) in this range...
The Search for the Afterglow of the Dark GRB 001109
We present optical and near IR follow up observations of the dark GRB 001109, 1-300 days after the event. No transient emission has been found for these...
We discuss the first results of the Fermi-GBM all-sky search for X-ray bursts. The very large field of view and X-ray response of the Fermi-GBM make it a unique...
Several techniques are achieving nowadays the precision levels required to detect few-Earth-mass planets, but still a fruitful path needs to be explored in...
The second release of the Toruń catalogue of Galactic post-AGB objects: New classification scheme
The investigation of post-AGB objects (proto-planetary nebulae) is very important from the standpoint of physical and chemical changes occurring during the late...
The Second Stellar Spectrum and the non-LTE Problem of the 2nd Kind
This paper presents an overview of the radiative transfer problem of calculating the spectral line intensity and polarization that emerges from a (generally...
The SED of Low-Luminosity AGNs at high-spatial resolution
The inner structure of AGNs is expected to change below a certain luminosity limit. The big blue bump, footprint of the accretion disk, is absent for the...
We introduce the main lines and specificities of the CoRoT Seismology Core Programme. The development and consolidation of this programme has been made in the...
