Descripción
An analysis of the impact of seismic and volcanic activity has been carried out at selected astronomical sites, namely the observatories of El Teide (Tenerife, Canary Islands), Roque de los Muchachos (La Palma, Canary Islands), Mauna Kea (Hawaii) and Paranal (Chile), and the candidate site of Cerro Ventarrones (Chile). Hazard associated with volcanic activity is low or negligible at all sites, whereas seismic hazard is very high in Chile and Hawaii. The lowest geological hazard in both seismic and volcanic activity is found at Roque de los Muchachos observatory, on the island of La Palma.

    We present numerical simulations of dark matter and stellar dynamics in ultralight dark matter halos tailored to mimic dwarf galaxies. An important effect we observe is the dynamical evolution of the stellar half-light radius and velocity dispersion, which makes previous equilibrium models significantly incomplete. Based on half-light radius

    The ALMA survey to Resolve exoKuiper belt Substructures (ARKS): VI. Asymmetries and offsets
    Context. Asymmetries in debris discs provide unique clues to understand the evolution and architecture of planetary systems. Previous studies of debris discs at (sub)millimetre wavelengths have suggested the presence of asymmetries in a wide variety of systems, yet the lack of sufficiently sensitive high-resolution observations means that the

    The ALMA survey to Resolve exoKuiper belt Substructures (ARKS): VII. Optically thick gas with broad CO gaussian local line profiles in the HD 121617 disc
    Context. CO gas has been detected in ~20 debris discs, typically classified as CO-poor or CO-rich. We present observations of the CO-rich HD 121617 debris disc as part of the ALMA survey to Resolve exoKuiper belt Substructures (ARKS). Aims. We model local CO line profiles in the HD 121617 debris disc to investigate optical depth, CO mass, and
