EMIR is a near-infrarred multiobject spectrograph for the Gran Telescopio Canarias. We describe the integration of its data processing pipeline in the telescope control system.

We present the detection of fullerenes C 60 and C 70 in the star-forming region IC 348 of the Perseus molecular cloud. Mid-IR vibrational transitions of C 60 and C 70 in emission are found in Spitzer IRS spectra of individual stars (LRLL 1, 2, 58), in the averaged spectrum of three other cluster stars (LRLL 21, 31, and 67) and in spectra obtained

This paper studies the effectiveness of production of Alfvén waves in the solar atmosphere through the processes of mode conversion, taking into account several new effects that have not been considered before. We perform simulations of wave propagation and conversion from the photosphere to the corona. Both magnetic field and plasma parameters are

The Kepler Space Telescope observed thousands of RR Lyrae stars in the K2 mission. In this paper, we present our photometric solutions using extended apertures in order to conserve the flux of the stars to the highest possible extent. With this method, we are able to avoid most of the problems that RR Lyrae light curves produced by other pipelines

This is the second in a series of papers devoted to exploring a set of six dusty models of active galactic nuclei (AGN) with available spectral energy distributions. These models are the smooth torus by Fritz et al., the clumpy torus by Nenkova et al., the clumpy torus by Hönig & Kishimoto, the two-phase torus by Siebenmorgen et al., the two-phase
