Description
We present age and metallicity determinations for 49 star clusters in the SMC from Washington CT1 photometry and integrated spectra. Two of the observed clusters resulted to be relatively old object (age ~ 6.5 Gyr). In addition, we confirm that the further a cluster is from the center of the galaxy, the older and more metal-poor it is, with some dispersion; although clusters associated with the Magellanic bridge clearly do not obey the general trend. The number of clusters within ~ 2 degrees of the SMC center appears to have increased substantially after ~ 2.5 Gyr ago, hinting at a burst. FULL TEXT IN SPANISH

    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

    The Multi Frequency Instrument 2 (MFI2): mechanical design, manufacture, integration, and commissioning of the MFI2 for the QUIJOTE facility in Tenerife (Canary Islands)
    The QUIJOTE (Q-U-I JOint TEnerife) experiment combines the operation of two radio-telescopes and three instruments working in the microwave bands from 10 to 47 GHz at the Teide Observatory, Tenerife, which has already been presented in previous SPIE meetings. The new Multi Frequency Instrument (MFI2) led by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias

    Euclid commissioning results: the near infrared spectrometer and photometer (NISP) signal detection chain
    Euclid, the M2 mission of the ESA's Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 program, aims to explore the Dark Universe by conducting a survey of approximately 14 000 deg 2 and creating a 3D map of the observable Universe of around 1.5 billion galaxies up to redshift z ∼ 2. This mission uses two main cosmological probes: weak gravitational lensing and galaxy
