A study of [Fe Ii] lines at various positions within the H Ii regions M42 and M43 is presented. The relative intensities of selected optical [Fe Ii] lines are...
Fluorescent Excitation of Balmer Lines in Gaseous Nebulae: Case D
Nonionizing stellar continua are a potential source of photons for continuum pumping in the hydrogen Lyman transitions. In the environments where these...
Fluorine abundances in dwarf stars of the solar neighbourhood
Context. In spite of many observational efforts to characterize the chemical evolution of our Galaxy, not much is known about the origin of fluorine (F). Models...
Fluorine in the Solar Neighborhood: No Evidence for the Neutrino Process
Asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are known to produce “cosmic” fluorine, but it is uncertain whether these stars are the main producers of fluorine in the...
Flux Upper Limit on Gamma-Ray Emission by GRB 050713a from MAGIC Telescope Observations
The long-duration γ-ray burst GRB 050713a was observed by the MAGIC Telescope 40 s after the burst onset and followed up for 37 minutes, until twilight. The...
Flux-Calibrated Emission-Line Imaging of Extended Sources Using GTC/OSIRIS Tunable Filters
We investigate the utility of the tunable filters (TFs) for obtaining flux-calibrated emission-line maps of extended objects such as galactic nebulae and nearby...
Flux-Tube Model Atmospheres and Stokes V Zero-crossing Wavelengths
First results of the inversion of Stokes I and V profiles from plage regions near disk center are presented. Both low and high spatial resolution spectra of Fe...
FOCUS: a deconvolution method based on algorithmic complexity
A new method for improving the resolution of images is presented. It is based on Occam's razor principle implemented using algorithmic complexity arguments. The...
Follow-up observations at 16 and 33GHz of extragalactic sources from WMAP 3-yr data: I - Spectral properties
We present follow-up observations of 97 point sources from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) 3-yr data, contained within the New Extragalactic...
