Context: Astrometric observations of resolved binaries provide estimates of orbital periods and will eventually lead to measurement of dynamical masses. Only a few very low mass star and brown dwarf masses have been measured to date, and the mass-luminosity relation still needs to be calibrated. Aims: We have monitored 14 very low mass multiple

In our original paper (Section 4.4) we compared the ratios of hard X-ray to nuclear mid-infrared emission for Seyfert 1 and 2 (Sy1 and Sy2) nuclei, finding that both distributions appear significatively different according to the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. We have detected a mistake in the computation of the X-ray luminosities (the lack of a 4π

Aims:We investigate the spatial distribution of magnetic polarities in the penumbra of a spot observed very close to disk center. Methods: High angular and temporal resolution magnetograms taken with the Narrowband Filter Imager aboard Hinode are used in this study. They provide continuous and stable measurements in the photospheric Fe I 630.25

Raw data were filtered from outliers and residuals at the orbital period of the satellite. The orbital parameters and the radius of the planet were estimated by best fitting the phase folded light curve with 34 successive transits. Doppler measurements with the SOPHIE spectrograph permitted us to secure the detection against binaries and to

Comet McNaught C/2006 P1 was the brightest comet of the last forty years when reaching its perihelion at an heliocentric distance of 0.17Â AU. Two days before this perihelion, at an heliocentric distance of 0.2Â AU, Themis, a French-Italian solar telescope in the Canary Islands, Spain, observed the Comet sodium emission of McNaught. The measured
