  • Preliminary design of a multi-slit image slicer for EST
    Integral field spectroscopy is a modern technique used in Astronomy to obtain simultaneous spectral information of all points in a bidimensional field of view. This communication presents the preliminary design of a multi-slit image slicer to be coupled to the spectrographs of the 4 meters aperture European Solar Telescope. This integral field unit

  • Primary Rotations of Paired Asteroids
    A population of small main-belt asteroids residing on closely similar orbits was revealed by Vokrouhlicky and Nesvorny (2008, Astron. J. 136, 280-290). We have estimated statistical significances of individual pairs (Pravec and Vokrouhlicky 2009, Icarus, in press) and started a photometry observing program to characterize their spin properties

  • PRIMASS visits Hilda and Cybele groups
    The Cybele and Hilda dynamical groups delimit the outer edge of the asteroid belt. Their compositional distribution is a key element to constrain evolutionary models of the Solar System. In this paper, we present a compositional analysis of these populations using spectroscopic observations, SDSS and NEOWISE data. As part of the PRIMASS (Primitive

  • Primeval very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs - III. The halo transitional brown dwarfs
    We report the discovery of an esdL3 subdwarf, ULAS J020858.62+020657.0, and a usdL4.5 subdwarf, ULAS J230711.01+014447.1. They were identified as L subdwarfs by optical spectra obtained with the Gran Telescopio Canarias, and followed up by optical-to-near-infrared spectroscopy with the Very Large Telescope. We also obtained an optical-to-near

  • Probing IGM large-scale flows: warps in galaxies at shells of voids
    Context: Hydrodynamical cosmological simulations predict flows of the intergalactic medium along the radial vector of the voids, approximately in the direction of the infall of matter at the early stages of the galaxy formation. Aims: These flows might be detected by analysing the dependence of the warp amplitude on the inclination of the galaxies

  • Probing the early chemical evolution of the Sculptor dSph with purely old stellar tracers
    We present the metallicity distribution of a sample of 471 RR Lyrae (RRL) stars in the Sculptor dSph, obtained from the I-band period-luminosity relation. It is the first time that the early chemical evolution of a dwarf galaxy is characterized in such a detailed and quantitative way, using photometric data alone. We find a broad metallicity
