BP Tau is one of the few classical T Tauri stars for which the presence of a hot spot in the surface has been reported without ambiguity. The most likely source of heating is gravitational energy released by the accreting material as it shocks with the stellar surface. This energy is expected to be radiated mainly at UV wavelengths. In this work we

PSR B1951+32 is a γ-ray pulsar detected by the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) and identified with the 39.5 ms radio pulsar in the supernova remnant CTB 80. The EGRET data shows no evidence for a spectral turnover. Here we report on the first observations of PSR B1951+32 beyond 30 GeV. The observations were carried out with the 10

A 90 minute time series of high spatial resolution white-light images of solar granulation, obtained at the Swedish Vacuum Solar Tower (Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma), was analyzed to study how the physical properties of the granules changed with size. The observational material was corrected for global motions and for the

Monitoring of the near-nucleus activity of C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) began in Teide Observatory in August 1995. During 1996 the comet was observed on 72 nights between March 26 and November 13. A permanent fan structure was observed towards the north during the whole period of observation. The position angle of the axis of this fan was measured and its

Dwarf irregular (dIr) galaxies are frequent targets of young stellar populations research. But less attention has been devoted to their intermediate-age and old stars. For galaxies at moderate distances (more than ~ 10 Mpc) the study of these populations must rely on population sinthesys techniques that provide just crude estimates. For nearby
