Spectroscopy of the inner belt primitive asteroid background population
The PRIMitive Asteroid Spectroscopic Survey (PRIMASS) was formed with the goal of determining the origins and likely compositions of mission targets (101955)...
An exceptional variability phase occurred in the peculiar F-type hypergiant ρ Cas (Ia+) when the V brightness dimmed by about a full magnitude between June and...
Spectroscopy of the Veritas Family: Toward a Compositional Understanding
We have started a near-infrared spectroscopic study of the Veritas asteroid family. This family is of particular interest for several reasons: 1) This 8.2...
We conducted spectroscopic studies of both components of the visual binary HR 1847 to determine its basic physical and orbital parameters. New observations of...
SPECULOOS: a network of robotic telescopes to hunt for terrestrial planets around the nearest ultracool dwarfs
We present here SPECULOOS, a new exoplanet transit search based on a network of 1m-class robotic telescopes targeting the 1200 ultracool (spectral type M7 and...
Recent progress on the structure and dynamics of bulges is reviewed. Those aspects that link galaxy bulges either to oblate spheroids akin to elliptical...
Spheroidal Particle Stability in Semi-Solid Processing
A model for diffusion-controlled spherical particle growth is presented and solved numerically, showing how, on cooling at sufficient rate from a given fraction...
