The image mosaics obtained with the instrument LIRIS (Long-Slit Intermediate Resolution Infrared Spectrograph) at the Williams Herschel Telescope are in the...
On the origin and evolution of the asteroid Ryugu: A comprehensive geochemical perspective
Presented here are the observations and interpretations from a comprehensive analysis of 16 representative particles returned from the C-type asteroid Ryugu by...
PHANGS-JWST: Data-processing Pipeline and First Full Public Data Release
The exquisite angular resolution and sensitivity of JWST are opening a new window for our understanding of the Universe. In nearby galaxies, JWST observations...
Photoionized Herbig-Haro Objects in the Orion Nebula through Deep High Spectral Resolution Spectroscopy. II. HH 204
We analyze the physical conditions, chemical composition, and other properties of the photoionized Herbig-Haro (HH) object HH 204 through Very Large Telescope...
Quantifying the ionising flux escaping from the ultra-luminous HII regions in four spiral galaxies
There are two principal problems in explaining, in terms of the emission from OB stars, the ionisation of the gas which emits the diffuse H-alpha in spiral...
Sloan Digital Sky Survey. V. Pioneering Panoptic Spectroscopy
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey V (SDSS-V) is pioneering panoptic spectroscopy: it is the first all-sky, multiepoch, optical-to-infrared spectroscopic survey. SDSS...
Spatially Resolved Spectroscopy of Wolf-Rayet Ring Nebulae - Part Four - the Fundamental Parameters of the Central Stars
We derive effective temperatures, luminosities and related parameters for a sample of eight Wolf-Rayet stars - seven WN stars and a WO star - by computing...
Spatially resolved spectroscopy of WR ring nebulae. I - NGC 2359 and RCW 78
We report detailed spatially resolved spectroscopy of the WR nebulae NGC 2359 and RCW 78 surrounding the WN 5 HD 56925 and WN 8 HD 117688 stars. The aim of this...
The Accretion Mode in Sub-Eddington Supermassive Black Holes: Getting into the Central Parsecs of Andromeda
The inner kiloparsec regions surrounding sub-Eddington (luminosity less than 10 -3 in Eddington units, L Edd) supermassive black holes (BHs) often show a...
