Narrowband images of 51 symbiotic stars were obtained at the ESO and ORM observatories to search for resolved optical nebulae. Ionized nebulae much larger than...
A near infrared survey of northern planetary nebulae
We have observed 77 evolved planetary nebulae in the J, H, K, L', and M photometric bands. As a consequence, we note that most PN fall into a range -0.6 (J-H)...
A new discovery space opened by eROSITA. Ionised AGN outflows from X-ray selected samples
Context. In the context of an evolutionary model, the outflow phase of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) occurs at the peak of its activity, once the central...
A new L5 brown dwarf member of the Hyades cluster with chromospheric activity
Aims: Our aim is to identify brown dwarf members of the nearby Hyades open star cluster to determine the photometric and spectroscopic properties of brown...
A pile of new Planetary Nebulae in the Galactic Plane
The INT photometric H-alpha Survey (IPHAS; http://www.iphas.org) is now near completion. A band of 10 degrees along the Northern Galactic Plane is being imaged...
We have carried out a pilot study for the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array 2 (SCUBA-2) ‘All-Sky’ Survey (SASSy), a wide and shallow mapping project at...
A polarized fast radio burst at low Galactic latitude
We report on the discovery of a new fast radio burst (FRB), FRB 150215, with the Parkes radio telescope on 2015 February 15. The burst was detected in real time...
A possible shutting-down event of mass accretion in an active galactic nucleus at z ∼ 1.8
We present the discovery of a large gradual apparent fading event in optical and near-infrared wavelengths in a quasar at $z=1.767$ by a factor of ${\sim}20\!-\...
This paper announces the release at CDS of a substantial set of point sources detected by the DENIS project. DENIS is the first astronomical survey of the...
