The extraction of resonance parameters from meson photo-reaction data is a challenging effort, that would greatly benefit from the availability of several polarization observables, measured for each reaction channel on both proton and neutron targets. In the aim of obtaining such complete experiments, polarized photon beams and targets have been

The observations (program GO 10861) were taken between 2006 November and 2007 January with the HST/ACS camera (2x4096x2048 pixels, 0.05arcsec/pixel, 3-arcsec interchip gap). (1 data file).

The spectroscopic observations were carried out at VLT/FLAMES between 2003 and 2004, with the exception of one pointing which was re-observed in 2008 May, during the commissioning of the upgraded Grating Instrument for Radiation Analysis with a Fiber-FedEchelle (GIRAFFE) spectrograph CCD. (1 data file).

The new X-ray transient MAXI J1836-194 is a black hole candidate X-ray binary (BHXB; ATel #3611, #3613, #3628 #3652). Its X-ray spectrum was seen to soften (ATel #3618, #3652) but the X-ray flux has recently decayed and the spectrum has hardened (see link below for the light curve and evolution in the X-ray hardness-intensity diagram).

We perform a Bayesian parameter inference in the context of resonantly damped transverse coronal loop oscillations. The forward problem is solved in terms of parametric results for kink waves in one-dimensional flux tubes in the thin tube and thin boundary approximations. For the inverse problem, we adopt a Bayesian approach to infer the most

The preliminary results of a multisite photometric campaign on the Pleiades Delta Scuti variable V650 Tauri are reported. The star was observed photometrically for 14 days during 2008 November from three observatories distributed in Longitude around the Earth. As a result of the preliminary analysis we have detected in V650 Tauri at least nine
