Many techniques have been developed to analyse observations of solar rotational splittings to infer properties of the solar internal rotation rate. In preparation for the analysis of the extensive sets of data now available, we carry out tests and comparisons of a variety of inversion techniques, characterized by their resolution and error

Helioseismology is a powerful tool to probe the internal structure and dynamics of the Sun. However, it requires long uninterrupted datasets to extract the rotational splittings with the highest precision. Two types of facilities were developed. On the one hand, ground-based telescopes such as the Birmingham Solar Oscillation Network (BiSON) and

We present measurements of the microlensing optical depth and event rate toward the Galactic bulge using the data set from the 2006 to 2014 MOA-II survey, which covers 22 bulge fields spanning ∼42 deg 2 between ‑5° < l < 10° and ‑7° < b < ‑1°. In the central region with ∣l∣ < 5°, we estimate an optical depth of and an event rate of Γ = [16.08 ± 0

We present a new method for modelling the kinematics of galaxies from interferometric observations by performing the optimization of the kinematic model parameters directly in visibility space instead of the conventional approach of fitting velocity fields produced with the CLEAN algorithm in real-space. We demonstrate our method on Atacama Large

We present a 19.7–214 μm imaging atlas of local (4–181 Mpc; median 43 Mpc) active galactic nuclei (AGN) observed with FORCAST and HAWC+ on board the SOFIA telescope with angular resolutions ~3″–20″. This atlas comprises 22 Seyferts (17 Type 2 and five Type 1) with a total of 69 images, 41 of which have not been previously published. The AGN span a

Quenching of star formation plays a fundamental role in galaxy evolution. This process occurs due to the removal of the cold interstellar medium (ISM) or stabilization against collapse, so that gas cannot be used in the formation of new stars. In this paper, we study the effect of different mechanisms of ISM removal. In particular, we revised the
