Description
Hereby we present an exploratory study of the surface brightness radial profiles (μ-r profiles hereafter) of massive (M˜>109.5 M&sun;) disk galaxies in the redshift range 0 ˜< z ˜< 1. We use recently acquired images from HST-WFC3 in the H160 band, and archive data from SDSS-DR7, to trace the rest-frame z' band at all redshifts. The comparison of average μ-r profiles, obtained from images with their spatial resolutions equaled, show no significant change in the explored range of redshifts, i. e. in the last ˜8 Gyr of cosmic time. The stellar surface density seems to be comparable, at equal fractions of the effective radius, and there is no evidence for the growth in relevance of bulges. At least not at the simulated resolution, which is 1.5 kpc (fwhm).

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    MAAT: an IFU for GTC optimized using spectrograph wavefront measurements and superoptimization
    The Mirror-slicer Array for Astronomical Transients (MAAT) is an IFU now being manufactured for the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m GRANTECAN (GTC) telescope at La Palma. It is based on the Advanced Image Slicer (AIS) concept as are MUSE and KMOS on the VLT (among many others). Very significant changes to the design had to be made due in part to

    JWST observations of Chiron: A unique active Centaur beyond 18 AU
    Chiron is the second-largest Centaur, with an effective diameter of 210 km, and is among the most well-studied minor bodies in the middle and outer Solar System. Notably, Chiron belongs to the enigmatic subpopulation of active Centaurs and has displayed cometary activity several times since its discovery. In March 2021, Chiron underwent an outburst
