We present a new homogeneous survey of VLT/FLAMES LR8 line-of-sight radial velocities (v los) for 1604 resolved red giant branch stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy. In addition, we provide reliable Ca II triplet metallicities, [Fe/H], for 1339 of these stars. From this combination of new observations (2257 individual spectra) with ESO

Context. Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental mechanism in astrophysics. A common challenge in mimicking this process numerically in particular for the Sun is that the solar electrical resistivity is small compared to the diffusive effects caused by the discrete nature of codes. Aims: We aim to study different anomalous resistivity models and

We present a spatially resolved study of the ionized gas in the central 2 kpc of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110 and investigate the role of its moderate-luminosity radio jet (kinetic radio power of P jet = 2.3 × 10 43 erg s −1). We used new optical integral-field observations taken with the MEGARA spectrograph at the Gran Telescopio Canarias, which

In this work, we study the accuracy that can be achieved when inferring the atmospheric information from realistic numerical magneto-hydrodynamic simulations that reproduce the spatial resolution we will obtain with future observations made by the 4m class telescopes DKIST and EST. We first study multiple inversion configurations using the SIR code

We present new ALMA observations of the CO(3−2) transition and associated 854 μm continuum at 0.06 − 0.3″ resolution, together with new VLT/SINFONI observations of NGC 7172. This is a luminous (bolometric luminosity of ≃10 44 erg s −1) Seyfert galaxy that belongs to the Galaxy Activity, Torus, and Outflow Survey (GATOS). The ALMA CO(3−2)

Context. Small planets located at the lower mode of the bimodal radius distribution are generally assumed to be composed of iron and silicates in a proportion similar to that of the Earth. However, recent discoveries are revealing a new group of low-density planets that are inconsistent with that description. Aims: We intend to confirm and
