Description
Barlenses are morphological features present in barred galaxies with morphological types between S0 and Sb. Recently, they have been suggested to be the more face-on counterparts of the boxy/peanut bulges generally observed in edge-on galaxies. In this work we test this idea by looking at the orientations and colors of barlenses, and by comparing them with those of the bars and disks in the same galaxies. We find that barlenses have colors which are similar to those of bars, and also similar to those of elliptical galaxies.

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    ANDES, the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT: science goals, project overview, and future developments
    The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph). ANDES consists of three fibre-fed spectrographs ([U]BV, RIZ, YJH) providing a spectral resolution of ∼100,000 with a minimum simultaneous wavelength
