We describe the scientific motivations, the mission concept and the instrumentation of SPACE, a class-M mission proposed for concept study at the first call of...
Spatial and luminosity distributions of the ionized hydrogen in NGC 3992
From H-alpha CCD observations taken with the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope a catalog of 394 HII regions of the spiral NGC 3992 has been compiled. The...
Spatial changes of the oscillatory pattern in sunspot penumbrae at the photospheric level.
We analyze time sequences of photospheric spectral lines in the penumbra of two sunspots. Two spectral lines sensitive to velocity fluctuations at two different...
Spatial deconvolution of spectropolarimetric data: an application to quiet Sun magnetic elements
Context. One of the difficulties in extracting reliable information about the thermodynamical and magnetic properties of solar plasmas from spectropolarimetric...
Spatial dependence of the star formation history in the central regions of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy
We present the star formation history (SFH) and the age-metallicity relation (AMR) in three fields of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy. They sample a region...
Spatial Distribution of Stellar Populations in the Dwarf Irregular Galaxies DDO 165 and DDO 181
The morphological properties and spatial distribution of stellar populations are studied for DDO 165 and DDO 181, two dwarf irregular (dIrr) galaxies outside...
