The European Solar Telescope (EST) is a project for a 4 meter-class ground-based telescope, to be located in the Canary Islands. The project is promoted by the European Association for Solar Telescopes (EAST), a consortium formed by research organizations from 15 European countries. EST will be optimized for studies of magnetic coupling between the

In Table 1 of our original paper we include the coordinates of the centers of the 3.7' long slits obtained in the observations. However, these do not correspond to the centers of the slits drawn in our Figure 1, which represents the extension of the portions of the slits that we finally analyze in the paper (we remove some sections, as indicated in

We study how the regolith properties affect the measured fluorescent soft X-ray spectra from atmosphereless planetary surfaces as a function of mean particle size and particle size distribution, surface roughness and viewing geometry. The relative fluorescent elemental line intensities from the X-ray spectra measured from a planetary surface can be

We have conducted the largest systematic search so far for stellar disk truncations in disklike galaxies at intermediate redshift (z

Generalized-Scintillation Detection and Ranging (g-SCIDAR) has proven to be the most reliable and efficient technique for obtaining the vertical structure of the atmospheric turbulence through optical means. However, undesirable turbulence inside the telescope enclosure (dome and mirror seeing) is intermixed with the results. Processes for

Context: The first asteroseismology results from CoRoT are presented, on a star showing Sun-like oscillations. We have analyzed a 60 day lightcurve of high-quality photometric data collected by CoRoT on the F5 V star HD 49933. The data reveal a rich spectrum of overtones of low-degree p modes. Aims: Our aim was to extract robust estimates of the
