Descripción
We summarize the performances measured at room temperature and in cryogenic conditions of a set of NIR Volume Phase Holographic Gratings (VPHGs) which can then be used in astronomical instrumentations. VPHGs are novel optical components which can replace standard transmission gratings. Instead of a surface modulation a diffraction index modulation printed in a volume of material generates the diffraction according to the required specifications. Results on transmission and wavefront deformation are presented and compared in the two temperature regimes. These results were achieved along the run of the Joint Research Action 6 of OPTICON FP6 programme whose participating institutions are Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera (INAF), Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, Centre Spatial de Liege, Politecnico di Milano and European Southern Observatory.

    Constraining atmospheric evaporation timescales on young planets with systematic H and He transmission observations
    During the early stages of planetary formation, planets undergo strong changes in their physical and orbital properties due to internal and external forces, which also affect their primordial atmospheres composed mainly of H and He. The study of planets in these early stages and their comparison with the more mature planet population is crucial for

    Bar pattern speeds across the Hubble Sequence
    Bars are ellipsoidal-like structures that appears in the inner regions of a large fraction of discs of galaxies. Bars universal features present at all galactic masses, morphological types and across the Hubble time. Stars forming bars follow elongated orbits aligned with the bar major-axis. These barred structures rotate as a coherent structure

    Confronting Dark Matter Models with Nearby Dwarf Irregular Galaxies
    Dwarf irregular galaxies, due to their lower masses, relative isolation, and high-quality data availability, are ideal laboratories to test various models of dark matter. In particular, the existence, morphology and formation of central cores in dwarf galaxies has been a contentious issue in the literature in light of apparent tensions with the
