  • Brown dwarf census with the Dark Energy Survey year 3 data and the thin disk scale height of early L types
    We present a catalogue of 11,745 brown dwarfs with spectral types ranging from L0 to T9, photometrically classified using data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) year 3 release matched to the Vista Hemisphere Survey (VHS) DR3 and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) data, covering ∼2,400 deg 2 up to i=22. The classification method follows the

  • Characterising the atmosphere of ultra hot Jupiters: MASCARA-2b
    Ultra hot Jupiters orbit very close to their host star and consequently receive strong irradiation that makes their atmospheric chemistry different from the common gas giants. We study the atmosphere of one of these particular hot planets, MASCARA-2b / KELT- 20b, using four transit observations with high resolution spectroscopy facilities. Three of

  • Chromospheric resonant cavities in umbrae: unequivocal detection and seismic applications
    Umbral chromospheric oscillations exhibit significant differences compared to their photospheric counterparts. We evaluate two competing scenarios proposed for explaining those observations: a chromospheric resonant cavity and waves traveling from the photosphere to upper atmospheric layers. The oscillatory signatures of both models have been

  • Cold molecular gas and PAH emission in the nuclear and circumnuclear regions of Seyfert galaxies
    We investigate the relation between the detection of the 11.3 μm polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) feature in the nuclear (∼24-230 pc) regions of 22 nearby Seyfert galaxies and the properties of the cold molecular gas. For the former we use ground-based (0.3-0.6″ resolution) mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectroscopy. The cold molecular gas is traced

  • CosmoLAB: the Universe as an educational tool
    "CosmoLAB" is an educational project with the goal of bringing Astronomy and, in particular, the practice of astronomical observation, closer to the educational community of the island so that teachers and students consider the Teide Observatory, the skies of the Canary Islands and the cutting-edge science done in the region as part of their

  • Discovery of Phosphorus-rich stars
    Almost all chemical elements have been made by nucleosynthetic reactions in various kind of stars and have been accumulated along our cosmic history. Among those elements, the origin of phosphorus is of extreme interest because it is known to be essential for life such as we know on Earth. However, current models of (Galactic) chemical evolution
