The application of machine learning in solar physics has the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of the complex processes that take place in the...
Machine-learning approaches to exoplanet transit detection and candidate validation in wide-field ground-based surveys
Since the start of the Wide-angle Search for Planets (WASP) program, more than 160 transiting exoplanets have been discovered in the WASP data. In the past...
Made-to-measure models of the Galactic box/peanut bulge: stellar and total mass in the bulge region
We construct dynamical models of the Milky Way's box/peanut (B/P) bulge, using the recently measured 3D density of red clump giants (RCGs) as well as kinematic...
Magic Constraints on γ-ray Emission from Cygnus X-3
Cygnus X-3 is a microquasar consisting of an accreting compact object orbiting around a Wolf-Rayet star. It has been detected at radio frequencies and up to...
MAGIC very large zenith angle observations of the Crab Nebula up to 100 TeV
Aims: We measure the Crab Nebula γ-ray spectral energy distribution in the ~100 TeV energy domain and test the validity of existing leptonic emission models at...
Context. The study of stellar activity is important because it can provide new constraints for dynamo models when combined with surface rotation rates and the...
Magnetic Properties of Photospheric Regions with Very Low Magnetic Flux
The magnetic properties of the quiet Sun are investigated using a novel inversion code, FATIMA, based on the Principal Component Analysis of the observed Stokes...
Magnetic topological analysis of coronal bright points
Context. We report on the first of a series of studies on coronal bright points which investigate the physical mechanism that generates these phenomena. Aims...
Magnetic variability in the young solar analog KIC 10644253. Observations from the Kepler satellite and the HERMES spectrograph
The continuous photometric observations collected by the Kepler satellite over 4 yr provide a wealth of data with an unequalled quantity and quality for the...
