We have inverted most of the available rotational frequency splittings at intermediate degrees. Namely, LOWL data from 1994 to 2000, GONG data from 1995 to 2001, and, MDI data from 1996 to 2002. Our purpose was to look for any temporal variation of the tachocline and its relation to the solar activity cycle. However, we did not find any significant

More than half square degree in the region of the Lockman Hole has been observed at 14.3μm with the ISOCAM camera on board ISO. We analyzed these data using the algorithm by Lari et al. (2001) detecting more than 270 sources with fluxes between 0.2 and 4 mJy. Thanks to ancillary optical data obtained with the wide field camera of the Isaac Newton

A catalog of optical warps of galaxies is presented. This can be considered complementary to that reported by Sánchez-Saavedra et al. (cite{sanchez-saavedra}), with 42 galaxies in the northern hemisphere, and to that by Reshetnikov & Combes (cite{reshetnikov99}), with 60 optical warps. The limits of the present catalog are: logr 25 > 0.60, B_t 14.5

We present the results of optical and near-IR spectra and mid-infrared images of the star-forming region Gy 2-18, which is associated with IRAS 05439+3035.

We derived consistent photospheric and wind parameters of O-type stars, by analyzing high-resolution spectra in the range 905 to 3250 Å with line-blanketed, hydrodynamic, non-LTE spherical models. We find significantly lower T[eff] and luminosities than previously assigned to these spectral types.

We have imaged the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 246 in the wavelengths [Ne V] 342.6 nm, O III at 344.4 nm, and a nearby line-free region at 338.6 nm, as well as H alpha , [O III] 500.7 nm, and [S II] 673.0, 671.5 nm.
