Description
We report a rebrightening of the newly discovered transient MAXI J0556-332 (ATEL #3102, #3103, #3104, #3106, #3110, #3112, #3116, #3119) in optical through soft-X-ray wavelengths. The source is being monitored regularly in the I-band using the SMARTS 1.3m telescope in CTIO, and the I-band light curve has been showing a monotonically increasing trend since 55670.9748 (2011 April 19.97, when the I-band magnitude was 18.39 ± 0.15).

    The spin rate properties of Galactic massive O-type stars
    We present results from a recent study of the spin rate properties of a sample of more than 400 Galactic O-type stars surveyed by the IACOB and OWN projects. We combine vsini, Teff, and logg estimates with information about the spectroscopic binarity status for 285 of the stars in the sample, and provide a renewed overview about how the empirical

    Hot stars in the Gaia-ESO Survey
    The Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) is a large public spectroscopic survey that has collected spectra of about 100,000 stars. The survey provides not only the reduced spectra, but also the radial velocities, stellar parameters and surface abundances resulting from the analysis of the spectra. We present the work of the groups that analysed the spectra of the

    Good data in good and bad times: operations of the CARMENES radial-velocity survey at Calar Alto
    CARMENES is an instrument designed to search for extrasolar planets around M dwarfs with the radial-velocity technique. It consists of two independent high-resolution echelle spectrographs for the visible and near-infrared wavelength ranges, which are simultaneously fed through fibers from a front end at the Cassegrain focus of the 3.5m telescope
