Context: Analysis of bulges to redshifts of up to z ˜ 1 have provided ambiguous results as to whether bulges as a class are old structures akin to elliptical galaxies or younger products of the evolution of their host disks. Aims: We aim to define a sample of intermediate-z disk galaxies harbouring central bulges, and a complementary sample of disk

Aims: The knowledge of physical conditions in young radio sources is important for defining the framework of models describing radio source evolution. We investigate whether young radio sources are in equipartition (i.e. minimum energy) conditions by comparing the equipartition magnetic fields of 5 High Frequency Peakers (HFP) with values directly

Table 8 contains the equatorial coordinates, the atmospheric parameters measured on UVES spectra, UBVI_C photometry from WFI@2.2m telescope and infrared JHK photometry from 2MASS for the analysed stars. Table 9 contains the measured chemical abundances. (2 data files).

We report here on the discovery of a red quasar, J004929.4+351025.7 at a redshift of z = 2.48, situated within a large Lyα emission-line halo. The radio spectral energy distribution implies that the radio jets were triggered

MOTIVATION FOR THIS MONITORING To better understand the origin, nature and evolution of the Kuiper Belt Objects (hereafter KBOs) it is needed a characterization of the physical properties of these primitive bodies. We expect that these remote and pristine bodies are rich in ice and other volatiles. They also probably played an important role in the

Winter weekly cycles of different climatic variables have been detected over Spain during the 1961-2004 period. The 13 analyzed series come from stations placed on different climatological and geographical areas with different level of urban influence. Therefore, the weekly cycles can hardly be related with local effects. Contrarily, we suggest
