Central star formation and metallicity in CALIFA interacting galaxies
We use optical integral-field spectroscopic (IFS) data from 103 nearby galaxies at different stages of the merging event, from close pairs to merger remnants...
Centre-to-limb variation of solar granulation along the equator and the central meridian
The paper analyzes white-light images of solar granulation taken outside active regions, at regular intervals along the polar axis and the equator, in order to...
Centre-to-limb variation of solar granulation in the infrared
Broad-band images have been obtained at the extremes of the continuum absorption coefficient of the solar atmosphere, at lambda 0.8 mu m and lambda 1.55 mu m...
Cepheid Period-Luminosity Relations in the Near-infrared and the Distance to M31 from the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3
We present measurements of 68 classical Cepheids, most detected from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope POMME Survey, with periods from 10 to 78 days observed...
Cepheid Variable Stars in the Pegasus Dwarf Irregular Galaxy: Constraints on the Star Formation History
Observations of the resolved stars obtained over a period of 11 years in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy Pegasus have been used to search for Cepheid...
We present a complete analysis, which includes morphology, kinematics, stellar populations, and N-body simulations, of CGCG 480-022, the most distant (cz=14,317...
Challenging a Newtonian prediction through Gaia wide binaries
Under Newtonian dynamics, the relative motion of the components of a binary star should follow a Keplerian scaling with separation. Once orientation effects and...
Chandra and RXTE spectroscopy of the Galactic microquasar XTE J1550-564 in outburst
On two occasions, we obtained nearly simultaneous ~=4 ks snapshot observations of the Galactic black hole and microquasar XTE J1550-564 with Chandra and RXTE...
