Descripción
By using the Synspec program with different LTE and NLTE atmospheric models of Alpha Lyrae (Vega, spectral type A0V), we obtain different emitted fluxes. Taking into account the distance from Hipparcos, it is obtained the spectrum that would be observed from Earth for each model. This spectrum is compared with UV calibrations from the IUE and UARS satellites and visible ground-based observations. Absolute fluxes from the SOLSTICE experiment onboard UARS provide an independent source to assess the quality of the available data. The main goal of this work is to better understand and solve the controversy about the missing opacity problem in the UV. This is just the first step in that direction.

    Co-phasing the distributed aperture of a Fizeau interferometer via photonic lanterns and machine learning
    The advantage of large optical telescopes from the ground for high-contrast direct imaging relies on achieving exquisite control of the incident optical wavefront. Since the exoplanet problem almost always has a bright star within a small field of view there are usually ample photons for measuring the atmospheric and telescopedistorted wavefront. A

    Unveiling Chiron, an odd ice ball, with Webb: Ice and Gas Phases Revealed
    We present unprecedented findings on (2060) Chiron using James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) NIRSpec imaging and spectroscopy from cycle 1 GTO program 1273. Our study (Pinilla-Alonso et al. 2024 A&A Letter) marks the first detection of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) active outgassing and coma emission at heliocentric distances of ~18 au

    Conceptual optical design of the infrared integral field spectropolarimeter for the European Solar Telescope
    The European Solar Telescope (EST), with its primary mirror of 4.2 diameter, will be the largest solar telescope available in Europe. EST will offer Integral Field Spectropolarimetry (IFS) by incorporating the EST spectropolariMeter Based on slicEr-mirrors for the near-infraRed (EMBER). This instrument is a high-resolution spectropolarimeter that
