Stellar rotation, parameterized by a star's projected rotational velocity v sin i, is a fundamental parameter linked to star formation, evolution, and dynamical interaction.These are still poorly understood for OB stars, which typically rotate faster than their lower-mass counterparts. We determine v sin i for 210 field OB stars in the Small

We present the discovery of a small kinematically decoupled core of 0.″2 (60 pc) in radius as well as an outflow jet in the archetypical AGN-starburst "composite" galaxy NGC 7130 from integral field data obtained with the adaptive optics-assisted MUSE-NFM instrument on the VLT. Correcting the already good natural seeing at the time of our science

We report the development of a four-color simultaneous camera for the 1.52-m Telescopio Carlos Sánchez in the Teide Observatory, Canaries, Spain. The instrument, named MuSCAT2, has a capability of four-color simultaneous imaging in g (400 to 550 nm), r (550 to 700 nm), i (700 to 820 nm), and zs (820 to 920 nm) bands. MuSCAT2 equips four 1024 × 1024

Aims: We explore the capabilities of CARMENES for characterising hot-Jupiter atmospheres by targeting multiple water bands, in particular, those at 1.15 and 1.4 μm. Hubble Space Telescope observations suggest that this wavelength region is relevant for distinguishing between hazy and/or cloudy and clear atmospheres. Methods: We observed one transit

We present the results of band 3, 6, and 7 ALMA observations obtained of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) in MACS 1931.8-2635 over the course of Cycles 4 and 5. MACS 1931 is a massive (M500 = ˜5 x 1014 M⊙) cool-core galaxy cluster in the Cluster Lensing and Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) with the most actively star-forming BCG in the sample
