The QUIJOTE-CMB experiment has been described in previous publications. Here we describe the architecture of the control system, hardware and software, of the QUIJOTE I instrument (MFI). It is a multi-channel instrument with five separate polarimeters: two of which operate at 10-14 GHz, two of which operate at 16-20 GHz, and a central polarimeter

Cooling of Accretion Heated Neutron Star Transients
Some neutron star X-ray transients (the quasi-persistent transients) spend an unusually long time in outburst, with outbursts lasting years to decades rather than the usual weeks to months. During these outbursts, the neutron star crust gets heated significantly out of thermal equilibrium with the core and thus once back in quiescence, the crust

Coordinated Multiwavelength Observation of 3C 66A during the WEBT Campaign of 2003-2004
The BL Lac object 3C 66A was the target of an extensive multiwavelength monitoring campaign from 2003 July through 2004 April (with a core campaign from 2003 September to 2003 December) involving observations throughout the electromagnetic spectrum. Radio, infrared, and optical observations were carried out by the WEBT-ENIGMA collaboration. At

CoRoT sounds the stars: p-mode parameters of Sun-like oscillations on HD 49933
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

Correction of the dome seeing contribution from generalized-SCIDAR data using evenness properties with Fourier analysis
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
