    Inferring physical parameters in solar prominence threads
    Context. High resolution observations have permitted the resolution of solar prominences/filaments into sets of threads/fibrils. However, the values of the...

    Inferring planetary obliquity using rotational and orbital photometry
    The obliquity of a terrestrial planet is an important clue about its formation and critical to its climate. Previous studies using simulated photometry of Earth...

    Inflection point in the power spectrum of stellar brightness variations. II. The Sun
    Context. Young and active stars generally have regular, almost sinusoidal, patterns of variability attributed to their rotation, while the majority of older and...
  • Publication
    Inflection point in the power spectrum of stellar brightness variations. III. Facular versus spot dominance on stars with known rotation periods
    Context. Stellar rotation periods can be determined by observing brightness variations caused by active magnetic regions transiting visible stellar disk as the...

    Influence of baryons on the orbital structure of dark matter haloes
    We explore the dynamical signatures imprinted by baryons on dark matter haloes during the formation process using the OverWhelmingly Large Simulations (OWLS), a...

    Infrared Laboratory Oscillator Strengths of Fe I in the H-band
    We report experimental oscillator strengths for 28 infrared Fe I transitions, for which no previous experimental values exist. These transitions were selected...

    Infrared spectroscopy and integrated molar absorptivity of C60 and C70 fullerenes at extreme temperatures
    The detection of C60 and C70 fullerenes in young planetary nebulae and in reflection nebulae suggests that these molecules are more common in certain...

    Infrared spectroscopy of hydrogenated fullerenes (fulleranes) at extreme temperatures
    The infrared spectra, as well as the integrated molar absorptivity (Ψ) and the molar extinction coefficient (ɛ) of each infrared transition of the hydrogenated...
