Context. The transiting exoplanetary system WASP-174 was reported to be composed by a main-sequence F star (V = 11.8 mag) and a giant planet, WASP-174b (orbital...
The HIPASS catalogue - III. Optical counterparts and isolated dark galaxies
We present the largest catalogue to date of optical counterparts for HI radio-selected galaxies, HOPCAT. Of the 4315 HI radio-detected sources from the HI...
The Historical X-ray Transient KY TrA in quiescence
We present deep optical images of the historical X-ray Transient KY TrA in quiescence from which we confirm the identification of the counterpart reported by...
The History of a Quiet-Sun Magnetic Element Revealed by IMaX/SUNRISE
Isolated flux tubes are considered to be fundamental magnetic building blocks of the solar photosphere. Their formation is usually attributed to the...
The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Chemical Abundances of Stars in the Halo (CASH) Project. I. The Lithium-, s-, and r-enhanced Metal-poor Giant HKII 17435-00532
We present the first detailed abundance analysis of the metal-poor giant HKII 17435-00532. This star was observed as part of the University of Texas long-term...
The homogeneity of chemical abundances in H II regions of the Magellanic Clouds
We use very deep spectra obtained with the Ultraviolet-Visual Echelle Spectrograph at the Very Large Telescope to derive physical conditions and chemical...
The Horizontal Magnetic Flux of the Quiet-Sun Internetwork as Observed with the Hinode Spectro-Polarimeter
Observations of very quiet Sun using the Solar Optical Telescope/Spectro-Polarimeter (SOT/SP) aboard the Hinode spacecraft reveal that the quiet internetwork...
The host galaxies of BL Lac objects in the near-infrared
We present the results of near-infrared H band (1.65 μm) imaging of 11 BL Lac objects with redshifts ranging from z = 0.05 to 0.9. We are able to clearly detect...
The Host Galaxies of Radio-loud Active Galactic Nuclei: The Black Hole-Galaxy Connection
We have studied the host galaxies of a sample of radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs) spanning more than 4 decades in the energy output of the nucleus. The...
