Descripción
The net circular polarization observed in solar faculae (Stenflo et al., 1984) follows a law expected from the combination of velocity and magnetic field gradients in the photosphere. To show this, the theoretical curve of growth (net circular polarization produced by a single line versus its absorption coefficient) predicted by this mechanism is developed. An empirical curve of growth with more than 80 Fe I lines is also constructed. The agreement between theory and observation seems to point toward this mechanism as responsible for circular polarization in faculae at the disk center.

    Stellar halo density with LAMOST K and M giants

    Aims: We derive the morphology of the stellar component in the outer halo volume, and search for possible overdensities due to substructures therein. Methods: We made use of some of the data releases of the spectroscopic survey LAMOST DR8-DR9 in tandem with distance determinations for two subsamples, that is, of K-giants and M-giants, respectively

    Euclid preparation. XXXVI. Modelling the weak lensing angular power spectrum

    This work considers which higher order modeling effects on the cosmic shear angular power spectra must be taken into account for Euclid. We identified the relevant terms and quantified their individual and cumulative impact on the cosmological parameter inferences from Euclid. We computed the values of these higher order effects using analytic

    The discovery space of ELT-ANDES. Stars and stellar populations

    The ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph (ANDES) is the optical and near-infrared high-resolution echelle spectrograph envisioned for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). We present a selection of science cases, supported by new calculations and simulations, where ANDES could enable major advances in the fields of stars and stellar
