Description
On 2002 we started an observational campaign devoted to the study of the surface composition of Jupiter Trojans. In particular we focused on the study of members of dynamical families: we obtained visible spectra of 80 objects belonging to 10 different families and for 24 of them we obtained also near-infrared spectra. All the investigated bodies have featureless spectra: in particular, no signatures of water ice have been found on the spectra of these primordial bodies. L4 and L5 objects seem to have similar spectral behaviours and no evidence of a possible color-dimension trend has been found. Tentative models of the surface composition, based on the Hapke theory, have been obtained.

    Convection, rotation, and magnetic activity of solar-like stars from asteroseismology
    During the last decade, our understanding of stellar physics and evolution has undergone a tremendous revolution thanks to asteroseismology. Space missions such as CoRoT, Kepler, K2, and TESS have already been observing millions of stars providing high-precision photometric data. With these data, it is possible to study the convection of stars

    Tales of stellar & binary co-evolution, told by stellar oscillations
    Stellar binarity and stellar oscillations are mostly seen and studied as two separate phenomena. Sometimes, one process is even complicating the analysis of the other beyond the liking of one or the other research community. However, the complete picture painted by the physical constraints provided by the combination of both processes represents a
