A near/mid infrared search for ultra-bright submillimetre galaxies: Searching for Cosmic Eyelash Analogues
We present results from a near-/mid-IR search for submillimetre galaxies over a region of 6230 deg2 of the southern sky. We used a cross-correlation of the...
A nearby transiting rocky exoplanet that is suitable for atmospheric investigation
Spectroscopy of transiting exoplanets can be used to investigate their atmospheric properties and habitability. Combining radial velocity (RV) and transit data...
A new analysis of the 11-year period in OJ287 - Confirmation of its existence
We have compiled all the available optical B band data on OJ287, between 1890 and 1991. Using this data we have found a period of 11.6 +/- 0.5 yr for the...
A new and Homogeneous metallicity scale for Galactic classical Cepheids. II. Abundance of iron and α elements
Context. Classical Cepheids are the most popular distance indicators and tracers of young stellar populations. The key advantage is that they are bright and...
A New Approach to the Solar Oxygen Abundance Problem
In this work we present new data that sets strong constraints on the solar oxygen abundance. Our approach, based on the analysis of spectropolarimetric...
We have analyzed in detail the discovery measurements of the X-ray burster SAX J1750.8-2900 by the Wide Field Cameras on board BeppoSAX in spring 1997, at a...
A New Catalog of Homogenized Absorption Line Indices for Milky Way Globular Clusters from High-resolution Integrated Spectroscopy
We perform integrated spectroscopy of 24 Galactic globular clusters (GGCs). Spectra are observed from one core radius for each cluster with a high wavelength...
A New Chemo-evolutionary Population Synthesis Model for Early-Type Galaxies. I. Theoretical Basis
We have developed a new stellar population synthesis model designed to study early-type galaxies. It provides optical and near-infrared colors, and line indices...
