    Characterizing eclipsing white dwarf M dwarf binaries from multiband eclipse photometry
    With the prevalence of wide-field, time-domain photometric sky surveys, the number of eclipsing white dwarf (WD) systems being discovered is increasing...

    Characterizing the Atmospheres of Transiting Rocky Planets Around Late-type Dwarfs
    Visible and near-infrared spectra of transiting hot Jupiter planets have recently been observed, revealing some of the atmospheric constituents of their...

    Characterizing the environments of supernovae with MUSE
    We present a statistical analysis of the environments of 11 supernovae (SNe) which occurred in six nearby galaxies (z ≲ 0.016). All galaxies were observed with...

    Chemical abundances and kinematics of 257 G-, K-type field giants. Setting a base for further analysis of giant-planet properties orbiting evolved stars
    We performed a uniform and detailed abundance analysis of 12 refractory elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Ti, Cr, Ni, Co, Sc, Mn, and V) for a sample of 257 G- and...

    Chemical abundances in the multiple sub-giant branch of 47 Tucanae: insights on its faint sub-giant branch component
    The globular cluster 47 Tuc exhibits a complex sub-giant branch (SGB) with a faint-SGB comprising only about the 10 per cent of the cluster mass and a bright...
