The stellar content and stellar age distribution of the Pegasus Dwarf Irregular Galaxy are discussed in the light of deep CM diagrams for (V - R) and (V - I) color indices, complemented by Hα data. The CM diagrams of Pegasus show two structures-red tail and red tangle-which denote the presence of intermediate-age and old stars in the galaxy. After

Since the early 1970s, stellar population modelling has been one of the basic tools for understanding the physics of unresolved systems from observation of their integrated light. Models allow us to relate the integrated spectra (or colours) of a system with the evolutionary status of the stars of which it is composed and hence to infer how the

Using a large amount of data gathered during previous seeing campaign at ORM, we analyse the temporal evolution of seeing in order to find out whether predictions could be made over a short time interval of a few hours. The first results are presented.

JWST presents the opportunity to transform our understanding of planets and the origins of life by revealing the atmospheric compositions, structures, and dynamics of transiting exoplanets in unprecedented detail. However, the high-precision, time-series observations required for such investigations have unique technical challenges, and our prior

We report the observation of two stellar occultations by Titan on 14 November 2003, using stations in the Indian Ocean, southern Africa, Spain, and northern and southern Americas. These occultations probed altitudes between ~550 and 250 km (~1 to 250 μbar) in Titan's upper stratosphere. The light curves reveal a sharp inversion layer near 515 +/- 6
