    Using globular clusters to test gravity in the weak acceleration regime
    We have carried out a study of the velocity dispersion of the stars in the outskirts of the globular cluster omega Cen, finding that the velocity dispersion remains constant at large radii rather than decrease monotonically. The dispersion starts to be constant for an acceleration of gravity of a=2.1+0.5-0.4x 10-8 cm s-2. A similar result is

    Unveiling the nature of 10199 Chariklo: near-infrared observations and modeling
    10199 Chariklo (1997 CU26) is the largest Centaur so far known. We carried out near-infrared observations of this object during two different runs separated by a year. Although no evidence for spectral variations has been found over short time scales, slight differences have been detected between the two observational runs. We interpret these

    Understanding internetwork magnetic fields as determined from visible and infrared spectral lines
    We present numerical experiments aimed at understanding why near-infrared observations systematically deliver weak magnetic fields in the internetwork, whereas analyses based on visible lines indicate that kG fields are ubiquitous. Synthetic noisy Stokes V profiles of the iron lines at 6302 Å and 1.565 mu m have been produced under varying
