The Chromospheric Lyα SpectroPolarimeter (CLASP) is a sounding rocket experiment launched on 2015 September 3 to investigate the solar chromosphere and transition region. The slit-jaw (SJ) optical system captured Lyα images with a high time cadence of 0.6 s. From the CLASP/SJ observations, many variations in the solar chromosphere and transition

We present Hα spectroscopic observations and detailed modeling of the Balmer filaments in the supernova remnant (SNR) Tycho (SN 1572). We used GH α FaS (Galaxy Hα Fabry–Pérot Spectrometer) on the William Herschel Telescope with a 3.‧4 × 3.‧4 field of view, 0.″2 pixel scale, and {σ }{instr}=8.1 km s‑1 resolution at 1″ seeing for ∼10 hr, resulting in

We report the peculiar chemical abundance patterns of 11 atypical Milky Way (MW) field red giant stars observed by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE). These atypical giants exhibit strong Al and N enhancements accompanied by C and Mg depletions, strikingly similar to those observed in the so-called second-generation

Over 30 years of solar data have been acquired by the Birmingham Solar Oscillations Network (BiSON), an international network of telescopes used to study oscillations of the Sun. Five of the six BiSON telescopes are located at major observatories. The observational sites are, in order of increasing longitude: Mount Wilson (Hale) Observatory (MWO)

We use asteroid differential photometry gathered in the past decades together with the Gaia stellar catalogue (as photometric standards) to obtain relative magnitudes. The obtained magnitudes are then used to fit the multi-opposition phase curves in several ways depending on data quality.

En este trabajo los resultados obtenidos para un nuevo sensor, el TP3-WFS (por su siglas en inglés Two Pupil Plane Positions Wavefront Sensor). El TP3-WFS utiliza el mismo montaje físico que los sensores de curvatura y geométrico, y comparte con este último el objetivo de obtener las pendientes locales del frente de onda. No obstante, presenta dos
