    The Carina Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy: A Goldmine for Cosmology and Stellar Astrophysics
    We present deep and precise multiband (U, B, V, I) optical data for the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Data were collected using three different ground-based telescopes (4-metre Blanco CTIO, MPG/ESO 2.2-metre, 1.5-metre CTIO) and cover the entire body of the galaxy. We discuss the reliability of the absolute photometric zero-point calibrations of

    The Afterglows of Swift-era Gamma-Ray Bursts. II. Type I GRB versus Type II GRB Optical Afterglows
    Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been separated into two classes, originally along the lines of duration and spectral properties, called "short/hard" and "long/soft." The latter have been conclusively linked to the explosive deaths of massive stars, while the former are thought to result from the merger or collapse of compact objects. In recent years

    Starlight: a common heritage
    The Starlight Initiative brings a new view of the night sky and of its value enhancement, claiming the access to starlight as a scientific, environmental, and cultural right of humankind. Night sky quality has been seriously damaged in the last years because of light and atmospheric pollution, and an international action in favour of intelligent
