  • CAVITY, Calar Alto Void Integral-field Treasury surveY and project extension
    We have learnt in the last decades that the majority of galaxies belong to high density regions interconnected in a sponge-like fashion. This large-scale structure is characterised by clusters, filaments, and walls, where most galaxies concentrate, but also under-dense regions called voids. The void regions and the galaxies within represent an

  • Carbon enrichment in APOGEE disk stars as evidence of mass transfer in binaries
    Context. Carbon abundances in first-ascent giant stars are usually lower than those of their main-sequence counterparts. At moderate metallicities, stellar evolution of single stars cannot account for the existence of red-giant branch stars with enhanced carbon abundances. The phenomenon is usually interpreted as resulting from past mass transfer

  • Astronomy and Culture on the Camino de Santiago
    During the transition from the first to the second millennium, a new artistic and architectural style known as “Romanesque” emerged and developed in the Iberian Peninsula between the 11th and 13th centuries. Many resources were invested in the construction of churches and monasteries, particularly in the regions crossed by the Camino de ­Santiago

  • AsteroiDB: The Asteroid Legacy Archive of the Canary Islands Observatories
    The growing volume of astronomical data produced by telescopic facilities presents significant challenges and extraordinary opportunities for the scientific community. Specifically, the Canary Islands Observatories generate approximately 1 petabyte of raw images annually from nearly thirty telescope installations, both public and private. These

  • Are early-type galaxies quenched by present-day environment?: A study of dwarfs in the Fornax Cluster
    Galaxies undergo numerous transformative processes throughout their lifetimes that ultimately lead to the expulsion of gas and the cessation of star-forming activity. This phenomenon is commonly known as quenching, and in this study, we delve into the possibility that this process is caused by the environmental processes associated with the

  • An Earth-sized Planet on the Verge of Tidal Disruption
    TOI-6255 b (GJ 4256) is an Earth-sized planet (1.079 ± 0.065 R ⊕) with an orbital period of only 5.7 hr. With the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder and CARMENES spectrographs, we determine the planet's mass to be 1.44 ± 0.14 M ⊕. The planet is just outside the Roche limit, with P orb/P Roche = 1.13 ± 0.10. The strong tidal force likely deforms
