  • A High Sensitivity Fourier Transform Spectrometer for Cosmic Microwave Back-ground Observations
    The QUIJOTE Experiment was developed to study the polarization in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) over the frequency range of 10-50 GHz. Its first instrument, the Multi-Frequency-Instrument (MFI), measures in the range 10-20 GHz which coincides with one of the naturally transparent windows in the atmosphere. The Tenerife Microwave

  • A contribution of star-forming clumps and accreting satellites to the mass assembly of z ̃ 2 galaxies
    We investigate the contribution of clumps and satellites to the galaxy mass assembly. We analysed spatially resolved HubbleSpace Telescope observations (imaging and slitless spectroscopy) of 53 star-forming galaxies at z ̃ 1-3. We created continuum and emission line maps and pinpointed residual `blobs' detected after subtracting the galaxy disc

  • Ultra-violet imaging of the night-time earth by EUSO-Balloon towards space-based ultra-high energy cosmic ray observations
    The JEM-EUSO (Joint Experiment Missions for the Extreme Universe Space Observatory) program aims at developing Ultra-Violet (UV) fluorescence telescopes for efficient detections of Extensive Air Showers (EASs) induced by Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs) from satellite orbit. In order to demonstrate key technologies for JEM-EUSO, we

  • The Western Bulge of 162173 Ryugu Formed as a Result of a Rotationally Driven Deformation Process
    162173 Ryugu, the target of Hayabusa2, is a spinning top-shaped asteroid. Observations by Optical Navigation Camera onboard Hayabusa2 have shown that the western side of this asteroid possesses a smooth surface and a sharp equatorial ridge, compared to the other side. Here, we propose that a rotationally-driven deformation process generated the

  • The spectroscopic properties of the Lixiaohua Family, cradle of Main-Belt comets
    We present an analysis of the spectroscopic properties of the Lixiaohua asteroid family, which hosts two main-belt comets. This study will enhance our knowledge of how primitive asteroids were formed and the abundance of their water reservoir. Mapping the water abundance among the Solar System small body populations is a key constrain to understand
