GX 339-4 is a low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) that has been extensively studied since its discovery. All four X-ray states typically seen in X-ray binaries (XRBs)...
A precise new method to correcting temperature in stellar atmospheres
Calculations of energy balance in model stellar atmospheres for cold and moderately cold stars show that the overall energy gained or lost at the Lyman...
A precise, deep determination of the substellar mass function in the open cluster IC 2391
The formation mechanism of brown dwarfs (BDs) and its relation to star and planet formation remains an open issue. A careful determination of the substellar...
A Preliminary Budget for the Ionizing Photons in HII Regions of M51
The purpose of this work is to quantify the ionizing photon budget in the HII regions, deriving the fraction of the Lyman continuum (Lyc) absorbed by dust or...
A Preliminary Budget for the Ionizing Photons in the H II Regions of M51
Using HST/ACS broad- and narrow-band (Hα) images of M51 we have examined the ionizing radiation budget in a set of luminous H II regions in a spiral arm between...
A preliminary comparison of observed and theoretical frequencies for some Delta Scuti stars on the Pleiades cluster
The study of δ Scuti stars in a cluster allows to consider that all the objects have the same age, chemical composition and distance. In addition to this, the...
A probabilistic formulation of evolutionary synthesis models: implications for SED fittings
Evolutionary synthesis models (ESM) have been extensively used to obtain the star formation history in galaxies by means of SED fitting. Implicit in this use of...
A probability distribution for the amplitude of Solar Cycle 25
We suggest a method to calculate the probability for the maximum amplitude of Solar Cycle 25 using Bayesian inference. We illustrate this approach with the...
