Application of the TRUFAS detection algorithm to the first two runs of CoRoT
TRUFAS is a wavelet-based algorithm developed for the rapid detection of planetary transits in the frame of the COROT space mission. We present the application...
Applications of the IGIMF Theory to the Astrophysics of Galaxies
