Descripción
RXJ 2117.1 + 3412 is a newly spectroscopically identified bright PG1159 star discovered in the ROSAT XRT sky survey. We report the results of rapid photometry observations performed at the 2.5m Nordic Optical Telescope, on 1992 August 23-27. RXJ2117.1 + 3412 is a low amplitude multiperiodic pulsator. The analysis of 28 h of rapid photometry reveals that the light curve contains at least 24 frequencies. The power spectrum is dominated by a 5 mmag amplitude pulsation of 821 s period. Other modes are found in a wide range of periods: 246 - 3150 s. A test on the period distribution indicates two mean period spacings at 20.48 s and 22.61 s which, when interpreted as the expected period spacings in the asymptotic limit for g-modes of degree l = 1 and l = 2, lead to a mass of 0.62 and 0.58 solar mass, respectively.

    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
