The 3C Database aims to provide complete multi-wavelength information over different cosmological fields, such as GOODS, Groth or Sa68 allowing detailed studies on wide samples of galaxies.

The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS) presents an unparallelled resource for the study of field brown dwarfs. The UKIDSS Cool Dwarf Science Working Group (CDSWG) is carrying out a search for the lowest temperature brown dwarfs ever discovered, with the possibility of identifying a new spectral class of ultracool dwarf

Measurements with the HINODE Spectro-Polarimeter (SP) of the quiet Sun allow characterization of the weak, mixed-polarity magnetic flux at the highest angular resolution to date (0.3"), and with good polarimetric sensitivity(0.025% relative to the continuum). The image stabilization of the HINODE spacecraft allows long integrations with degradation

Context: We report on the first ultracool dwarf discoveries from the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey Early Data Release (LAS EDR), in particular the discovery of T dwarfs which are fainter and more distant than those found using the 2MASS and SDSS surveys. Aims: We aim to show that our methodologies for searching the ~27

The recently discovered Virgo stellar overdensity, which extends over ~1000 deg2 perpendicular to the Galactic disk plane (7 kpc

Context: The structural properties of the low surface brightness stellar host in blue compact dwarf galaxies are often studied by fitting r1/n models to the outer regions of their radial profiles. The limitations imposed by the presence of a large starburst emission overlapping the underlying component makes this kind of analysis a difficult task
