Descripción
We evaluate the transit detection capabilities of the STARE experiment in a real observing run. To this end, artificial transits have been added to 480 light curves of stars from STARE data, varying their amplitudes, periods and phases. A matched filter algorithm was then applied for the transit search. Detection probabilities of over 60% can be mantained for transits of 20 mmag depth for periods up to 4 days, with tolerable false alarms counts.

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    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
