Examination of emission lines in high-velocity-resolution optical spectra of the Orion Nebula confirms that the velocity component on the red wing of the main...
Balloon 090100001: A bright, high amplitude sdB pulsator
We report the discovery of pulsations in the light curve of Balloon 090100001, a bright sdB star (B=11.8) from the balloon-borne survey of Bixler et al. (1991)...
Balloon 090100001: A short and long period pulsating sdB star
We report the discovery of long period oscillations in the light curve of the bright sdB pulsator Balloon 090100001. We find at least three peaks in the low...
Balloon-Borne Submillimeter Polarimetry of the Vela C Molecular Cloud: Systematic Dependence of Polarization Fraction on Column Density and Local Polarization-Angle Dispersion
We present results for Vela C obtained during the 2012 flight of the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope for Polarimetry. We mapped polarized...
Balmer Filaments in Tycho’s Supernova Remnant: An Interplay between Cosmic-ray and Broad-neutral Precursors
We present Hα spectroscopic observations and detailed modeling of the Balmer filaments in the supernova remnant (SNR) Tycho (SN 1572). We used GH α FaS (Galaxy...
Balmer lines emission region in NGC 3516: Kinematical and physical properties
We have studied the Balmer line shapes of NGC 3516 in order to find the structure of central Emission Line Region (ELR) and the physical parameters of the...
BAM: bias assignment method to generate mock catalogues
We present BAM: a novel Bias Assignment Method envisaged to generate mock catalogues. Combining the statistics of dark matter tracers from a high-resolution...
Bar ages derived for the first time in nearby galaxies: Insights into secular evolution from the TIMER sample
Once galaxies settle their discs and become self-gravitating, stellar bars can form, driving the subsequent evolution of their host galaxy. Determining the ages...
Bar Evolution over the Last 8 Billion Years: A Constant Fraction of Strong Bars in the GEMS Survey
One-third of present-day spirals host optically visible strong bars that drive their dynamical evolution. However, the fundamental question of how bars evolve...
