A 200-GHz telescope unit for the QUIJOTE CMB Experiment
Experiment QUIJOTE (Q-U-I JOint TEnerife) is a scientific collaboration, leaded by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), which can measure the...
A 3.2 hr candidate orbital period for SWIFT J1753.5-0127
We report time-resolved photometry of the optical counterpart to the black hole candidate SWIFT J1753.5-0127 (Palmer et al. 2005, ATel #546: Halpern et al. 2005...
A 3D Radiative Transfer Code for Modeling the Hanle Effect in the Lyman α line
In order to obtain empirical information on the magnetism of the solar transition region we need to measure and interpret the linear polarization produced by...
A 3D view of galactic winds in luminous infrared galaxies
Galactic winds and outflows are an ubiquitous phenomenon in galaxies with active star formation and/or active nuclei. They constitute the main mechanism for...
Bars are strong drivers of secular evolution in disk galaxies. Bars themselves can evolve secularly through angular momentum transport, producing different boxy...
A Bibliometric Study to Manage a Journal Collection in an Astronomical Library: Some Results
The evaluation of the use of library collections is a fundamental tool for the development of a relevant and cost-effective collection. Bibliometrics offers...
A Black Hole in the Superluminal source SAX J1819.3-2525 (V4641 Sgr
Spectroscopic observations of the fast X-ray transient and superluminal jet source SAX J1819.3-2525 (V4641 Sgr) reveal a best fitting period of P spect=2.81678+...
A black hole in the X-ray transient XTE J1859+226: the first confirmed with GTC
We present the results of the analysis of the first black hole confirmed with GTC in the X-ray binary system XTE J1859+226. By combining optical photometry...
