Se presenta un análisis arqueoastronómico de la orientación definida por los muros del santuario de entrada del oppidum ibérico Cerro de las Cabezas (Valdepeñas, Ciudad Real), situado en la Oretania septentrional, así como de otros recintos pertinentes para el análisis. El resultado más relevante es que dos de los muros perimetrales del santuario

The OAS Project has been run with the support of the Spanish research funding agencies during the last dozen years . Within its framework, research on cultural astronomy has been developed for a s eries of ancient civilizations , from the Atlantic Islands to the Arabian Peninsula and beyond, with the Meditterranean Sea as the principal axis of

The origin and sources of rejuvenated volcanism in Hawaii has been long debated with the depleted isotopic features commonly attributed to assimilation of the 110 Ma-old Pacific oceanic lithosphere underlying Hawaii. Alternatively, it has been recently suggested that this depleted component is a long-lived feature intrinsic to the Hawaiian plume [1

We present the results of the analysis of temporal series of spectro-polarimetric data measured simultaneously in the photospheric Si I 10827 Å line and the chromospheric He I 10830 Å triplet, on top of two different targets: a facular region and the umbra of a sunspot. The full Stokes inversion of both spectral features gives us the temporal

OSIRIS (Optical System for Imaging and low/intermediate-Resolution Integrated Spectroscopy) is an instrument designed to obtain images and low resolution spectra of astronomical objects in the optical domain (from 365 through 1000nm). It will be installed on Day One (middle of 2004) in the Nasmyth focus of the 10-meter Spanish GTC Telescope. This

Emission-line galaxies are important targets for understanding the chemical evolution of galaxies in the universe. Deep, narrowband imaging surveys allow detection and study of the flux and the equivalent widths (EWs) of the emission line studied. The present work has been developed within the context of the OTELO project, an emission-line survey
