This paper presents the technical design of the pathfinder Barcelona Raman LIDAR (pBRL) for the northern site of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO-N) located at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (ORM). The pBRL is developed for continuous atmospheric characterization, essential for correcting high-energy gamma-ray observations

El fósforo (P) es esencial para la vida en la Tierra, y su origen galáctico es un área fascinante de estudio. Recientemente, se identificó un grupo de 16 estrellas gigantes con niveles anómalamente altos de P, entre 10 y 100 veces la abundancia solar. Estas estrellas desafían los modelos actuales de evolución química galáctica (GCE) y las teorías

The formation time scales of quiescent galaxies can be estimated in two different ways: by their star formation history and by their chemistry. Previously, the methods yielded conflicting results, especially when considering α-enhanced objects. This is primarily due to the time resolution limitations of very old stellar populations, which prevent

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is one of the most abundant ices in the Solar System. It has been detected in giant planet atmospheres and on their moons, on and around comets, and even in regions of Mercury, the Moon and Mars. However, despite formation in the coldest regions of the protoplanetary disk, CO 2 has not previously been detected throughout the

White dwarfs are often found in close binaries with stellar or even substellar companions. It is generally thought that these compact binaries form via common envelope evolution, triggered by the progenitor of the white dwarf expanding after it evolved off the main sequence and engulfing its companion. To date, a handful of white dwarfs in compact

Context. AU Mic is a very active M dwarf star with an edge-on debris disk and two known transiting sub-Neptunes with a possible third planetary companion. The two transiting planets exhibit significant transit-timing variations (TTVs) that are caused by the gravi tational interaction between the bodies in the system. Aims. Using photometrical
