JWST view of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and dust in local active galaxies
Nowadays, it is widely accepted that most galaxies undergo an active phase in their evolution. The impact of the energy released by active galactic nuclei (AGN)...
LEMUR: Large European module for solar Ultraviolet Research. European contribution to JAXA's Solar-C mission
The solar outer atmosphere is an extremely dynamic environment characterized by the continuous interplay between the plasma and the magnetic field that...
Light curves of SDSS J100658.40+233724.4 (Southworth+, 2009)
We present the discovery and follow-up observations of eclipses of the cataclysmic variable star SDSS J100658.40+233724.4, fom which we determine the orbital...
Line intensities of SDSS HII regions (Pilyugin+, 2010)
Spectra of high-metallicity [12+log(O/H)>~8.2] HII regions, where oxygen auroral lines are measurable in both the O+ and O++ zones, have been extracted from the...
Mapping magnetic activity indicators across the M dwarf domain
Stellar activity poses one of the main obstacles for the detection and characterisation of exoplanets around cool stars, as it can induce radial velocity (RV)...
Atmospheric compositions can provide powerful diagnostics of formation and migration histories of planetary systems. In this talk, I will present the results of...
Metal-poor solar-type stars spectroscopy and masses (Sousa+, 2011)
The stellar parameters were determined using an LTE analysis based on equivalent widths (EW) of iron lines and by imposing excitation and ionization equilibrium...
Using the near-infrared spectral stellar library of Cenarro et al. (J/MNRAS/326/959), the behaviour of the MgI line at 8807Å and nearby TiO bands is analyzed in...
