Searching for Very Low-Mass Stars and Brown Dwarfs with the Spanish Virtual Observatory
A search for very low-mass and brown dwarfs using Virtual Observatory Tools for cross-correlation of large area catalogs and databases (DENIS, IPHAS, SDSS...
Secondary eclipses in the CoRoT light curves. A homogeneous search based on Bayesian model selection
We identify and characterize secondary eclipses in the original light curves of published CoRoT planets using uniform detection and evaluation criteria. Our...
Secondary mirror system for the European Solar Telescope (EST)
The European Solar Telescope (EST) is a European collaborative project to build a 4m class solar telescope in the Canary Islands, which is now in its design...
We study long-term evolution of stellar bars in disk galaxies embedded in live dark matter halos. Using numerical modeling with N = 1.2 × 106 particles, we find...
Secular evolution along the sequence of S0 Hubble types through minor mergers
Recent studies have argued that galaxy mergers are not important drivers for the evolution of S0's, on the basis that mergers cannot preserve the coupling...
Secular evolution in action: unravelling the nature of bars and bulges
Studies of galactic bulges in relation with bars have provided powerful constraints on their formation and evolution. While spectroscopic measurements in 2D...
