  • First detection of VHE gamma-ray emission from TXS 1515-273, study of its X-ray variability and spectral energy distribution
    We report here on the first multiwavelength (MWL) campaign on the blazar TXS 1515-273, undertaken in 2019 and extending from radio to very-high-energy gamma-rays (VHE). Up until now, this blazar had not been the subject of any detailed MWL observations. It has a rather hard photon index at GeV energies and was considered a candidate extreme high

  • Giant white-light flares on fully convective stars occur at high latitudes
    White-light flares are magnetically driven localized brightenings on the surfaces of stars. Their temporal, spectral, and statistical properties present a treasury of physical information about stellar magnetic fields. The spatial distributions of magnetic spots and associated flaring regions help constrain dynamo theories. Moreover, flares are

  • Elusive accretion discs in low luminosity AGN
    Low luminosity AGN represent the vast majority of the AGN population in the near universe, and still the least conforming class with the standard AGN scenario. Their low luminosity is at odds with their often very high black hole masses and powerful jets. I will review the challenges that parsec-scale observations across the electromagnetic

  • MUSE-adaptive optics view of the starburst-AGN connection: NGC 7130
    We combine ALMA and MUSE-NFM (narrow field mode, with full four-laser adaptive optics correction) data at 0.15 arcsec spatial resolution of the archetypical AGN-starburst "composite" galaxy NGC 7130. We present the discovery of a small 0 ″.2 (60 pc) radius kinematically decoupled core or small bi-polar outflow, as well as a larger-scale outflow. We

  • What Equinox?
    Equinox, what a controversial concept! Since the dawn of archaeoastronomy this has arguably been the most problematic concept—perhaps together with the lunar standstills or lunistices (González García and Belmonte, Journal of Skyscape Archaeology, 5(2):178-190, 2019)—to be taken into account since it was first used in `megalithic' astronomy to
