PublicationA high-resolution study of the structure of sunspot light bridges and abnormal granulation
Strong light bridges (SLBs) represent an abrupt change in the physical conditions of sunspot umbrae. They divide the umbra into separate units (fragments...

PublicationA measurement of the background solar velocity spectrum
Ten years of continuous measurements of the radial velocity of the Sun have been used to estimate the contribution of various solar surface phenomena to the...

PublicationA remarkable feature in the giant extragalactic H II region NGC 5471
The discovery of a very high velocity, low-intensity gas feature in the giant extragalactic H II region NGC 5471 is reported. A broad component in the emission...

PublicationA spectroscopic test for substellar objects
We describe a spectroscopic test capable of providing direct confirmation of the substellar nature of brown dwarf candidates. While the conditions for...

PublicationAccretion tori and cones of ionizing radiation in Seyfert galaxies
The photoionization of extended narrow-line regions in Seyfert galaxies by the radiation produced in a thick accretion disk is studied. The emission-line...

PublicationAn implicit integral method to solve selected radiative transfer problems. I - Non-LTE line formation
In this paper we present a new method to solve those radiative transfer problems where the scattering term in the source function, i.e., the frequency...

PublicationAn optical fiber system to perform bidimensional spectroscopy
This article describes a fiber optic system contrived to perform spectral imaging of extended objects. It consists of two fiber bundles mounted simultaneously...
