  • Physical properties of NEOs derived from their phase curves
    The observation of Near Earth objects (NEOs) allows us to study the physical properties of the smallest size bodies of our Solar System and help impose constraints on their origin and evolution. The solar phase curve is a very important tool to derive diverse physical properties of a small body so that we set up an observational campaign to derive

  • Panning for gold, but finding helium: Discovery of the ultra-stripped supernova SN 2019wxt from gravitational-wave follow-up observations
    We present the results from multi-wavelength observations of a transient discovered during an intensive follow-up campaign of S191213g, a gravitational wave (GW) event reported by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration as a possible binary neutron star merger in a low latency search. This search yielded SN 2019wxt, a young transient in a galaxy whose sky

  • OzDES Reverberation Mapping Programme: Mg II lags and R-L relation
    The correlation between the broad line region radius and continuum luminosity (R-L relation) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is critical for single-epoch mass estimates of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). At z ~ 1-2, where AGN activity peaks, the R-L relation is constrained by the reverberation mapping (RM) lags of the Mg II line. We present 25

  • Outcome of the Dart Mission, the First Planetary Defence Experiment
    On the 26th of September, 2022, at 23:14 UT, the APL/NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted successfully on the secondary of the NEA binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, after a 10 months travel. [1] The 589 kg spacecraft impacted Dimorphos at 6.14 km/s, and images of the system were taken by the DRACO camera onboard DART

  • Opacity for realistic 3D MHD simulations of cool stellar atmospheres
    Context. Realistic three-dimensional time-dependent simulations of stellar near-surface convection employ the opacity binning method for the efficient and accurate computation of the radiative energy exchange. The method provides several orders of magnitude of speedup, but its implementation includes a number of free parameters. Aims: Our aim is to

  • On the orientation of historic Christian churches of Fuerteventura: conciliating tradition, winds and topography
    We present the results of an analysis of the precise spatial orientation of colonial Christian churches located in the Canary Island of Fuerteventura (Spain). Our sample consists of 48 churches, most built during the period between the Castilian conquest led by the Norman Jean de Béthencourt in the early fifteenth century and the end of the
