We present the observational properties of the dwarf galaxy population (Mr>M*r+1) corresponding to one of the largest samples of spectroscopically confirmed nearby galaxy cluster members reported in the literature. We have observed that red dwarf galaxies (u-r>2.22) share the same cluster environment as the brightest cluster members (Mr

The helioseismic instruments aboard the SOHO satellite make it possible to measure solar oscillations as variations of the irradiance (VIRGO) or as variations of the photospheric velocity (GOLF). Theoretically, phase differences between different photometric bands are expected to be around 0 degrees over the p-mode frequency range. By using VIRGO

Near-infrared (NIR) and optical polarimetric observations of a selection of X-ray binaries are presented. The targets were observed using the Very Large Telescope and the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope. We detect a significant level (3σ) of linear polarization in four sources. The polarization is found to be intrinsic (at the >3σ level) in two

All the Trojan asteroids orbit about the Sun at roughly the same heliocentric distance as Jupiter. Differences in the observed visible reflection spectra range from neutral to red, with no ultra-red objects found so far. Given that the Trojan asteroids are collisionally evolved, a certain degree of variability is expected. Additionally, cosmic

We describe the user-access and analysis possible for a robotic telescope (the Liverpool Telescope) that can be used for educational and other use. Robotic telescopes operate with no staff on-site and the observations are remotely scheduled each night.
