Descripción
We report the detection of modulated circular polarization in V795 Her. The degree of polarization increases with wavelength and is modulated with a period of 19.54 min, which is very close to the reported optical QPO period. The modulation has a peak-to-peak amplitude of 0.12% in the U-band. The estimated magnetic field intensity is in the range 2--7 MG.

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    Performance of the image persistence model for Euclid infrared detectors
    Large-format infrared detectors are at the heart of major ground and space-based astronomical instruments, and the HgCdTe HxRG is the most widely used. The Near Infrared Spectrometer and Photometer (NISP) of the ESA's Euclid mission launched in July 2023 hosts 16 H2RG detectors in the focal plane. Their performance relies heavily on the effect of
