We present the first results on the bremsstrahlung emission of photons accompanying ternary spontaneous fission of the 252Cf nucleus. We also compare our calculations on the basis of quantum model with preliminary experimental data and find a good agreement between theory and experiment for photon energies up to 500 keV, when the α-particle

Companions exert adverse effects on the relationships valid for Cepheids. Physical companions may also cause observable effects (e.g., phase jump in the pulsation, slight excitation of non-radial modes). Many new binaries among Cepheids can be revealed by using radial velocity measurements to be made by Gaia and by deriving astrometric orbit from

We report spectroscopic observations for 19 δ Sct candidates observed by the Kepler satellite both in long and short cadence mode. For all these stars, by using spectral synthesis, we derive the effective temperature, the surface gravity and the projected rotational velocity. An equivalent spectral-type classification has been also performed for

We present observations of wavelength-dependent flux ratios for four gravitational lens systems (SDSS J1650+4251, HE 0435-1223, FBQ 0951+2635, and Q 0142-100) obtained with the Nordic Optical Telescope. The use of narrowband photometry, as well as the excellent seeing conditions during the observations, allows us to study their chromatic behavior
