Descripción
High-resolution maps of the spiral galaxies NGC 3992 and NGC 4321, obtained with the Taurus camera at the 4.2-m William Herschel Telescope are analyzed. The results obtained include (1) the total number of separately identifiable H II regions in their disks (classified according to their membership of a spiral arm or the interarm disk, (2) the radial distribution of H II regions, (3) the frequency distribution of diameters of H II regions, and (4) the luminosity function.

    Massive characterisation of subgiants and red giants with TESS (Kepler and Gaia)
    TESS serves as a formidable tool for investigating stellar variability. Nonetheless, the adaptation of methodologies employed in other space missions, such as Kepler, to deduce long stellar rotation periods or solar-like stellar pulsations has been a challenge. The advent of multiple sectors of data for most stars every two years with the extended

    Measuring stellar long surface rotation periods by combining multi-sector/cycle long-cadence data from TESS
    The evolution of surface magnetic features on stars, such as spots and faculae, produces modulations in light curves. These modulations allow us to measure the surface rotation period, P_rot, of stars from the main sequence (e.g., McQuillan et al. 2014; Santos et al. 2019, 2021) to the red-giant (Ceillier et al. 2017) phase. Nevertheless, the

    The breakdown of current gyrochronology as evidenced by old coeval stars
    Gyrochronology can yield useful ages for field main-sequence stars, a regime where other techniques are problematic. Typically, gyrochronology relations are calibrated using young (2 Gyr) clusters, but the constraints at older ages are scarce, making them potentially inaccurate and imprecise. In order to test the performance of existing relations
