    Nuclear Spirals as Feeding Channels to the Supermassive Black Hole: The Case of the Galaxy NGC 6951
    We report the discovery of gas streaming motions along nuclear spiral arms toward the LINER nucleus of the galaxy NGC 6951. The observations, obtained using the...

    Nuclear Star Formation Activity and Black Hole Accretion in Nearby Seyfert Galaxies
    Recent theoretical and observational works indicate the presence of a correlation between the star-formation rate (SFR) and active galactic nucleus (AGN)...

    Nucleosynthesis and the Inhomogeneous Chemical Evolution of the Carina Dwarf Galaxy
    The detailed abundances of 23 chemical elements in nine bright red giant branch stars in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy are presented based on high...

    Numerical Modeling of Magnetohydrodynamic Wave Propagation and Refraction in Sunspots
    We present numerical simulations of magnetoacoustic wave propagation from the photosphere to the low chromosphere in a magnetic sunspot-like structure. A thick...

    Numerical Simulations of Conversion to Alfvén Waves in Sunspots
    We study the conversion of fast magnetoacoustic waves to Alfvén waves by means of 2.5D numerical simulations in a sunspot-like magnetic configuration. A fast...

    Observation and Modeling of Anomalous CN Polarization Profiles Produced by the Molecular Paschen-Back Effect in Sunspots
    We report novel spectropolarimetric observations of sunspots carried out with the Tenerife Infrared Polarimeter in a near-IR spectral region around 15410 Å...

    Observation and Modeling of the Circular Polarization of the Cr I Magnetic-field-induced Transition at 533.03 nm
    We study the circular polarization of the magnetic-field-induced transition (MIT) between the 3d 5( 6 S)4d 7 D 2 and 3d 5( 6 S)4p 7 P 4° states of Cr I at 533...

    Observation of Convective Collapse and Upward-moving Shocks in the Quiet Sun
    We present spectropolarimetric evidence of convective collapse and destruction of magnetic flux by upward-moving fronts in the quiet Sun. The observational...
