Photometric observations of some Ap stars with a 50 cm telescope have been carried out at Izaña (Tenerife) in February 1986. The stars observed were, generally...
Search for Pulsations in H-Deficient Planetary-Nebula Nuclei
We have observed with continuous photometry some hydrogen-deficient Planetary Nebula Nuclei (PNNs) with bipolar envelopes to search for pulsations, and to...
Search for rapid oscillations in the Northern AP stars HD62140, HD81009 and HD22374
High-speed photometric observations were performed of the Ap stars HD62140 (49 Cam), HD81009, and HD22374 for more than 60 hr in Oct. and Dec. 1986. Photometric...
Search for rings and satellites around the temperate exoplanet CoRoT-9b
The detection of the transiting extrasolar planet CoRoT-9b has just been reported (Deeg et al. 2010). With a semi-major axis of 0.41 astronomical unit on a...
Search for rings and satellites around the temperate exoplanet CoRoT-9b (continued)
CoRoT-9b is the first temperate transiting exoplanet. With a semi-major axis of 0.41 AU on a quasi-circular orbit, this is the first transiting planet far...
Despite theoretical predictions on the existence of solar gravity oscillations (g modes), their detection is still marginal. The main reasons are their...
Using a resonant scattering spectrophotometer the authors measured the radial velocity of the Sun at the K I 769.9 nm line with very high resolution and...
Analysis of solar velocity data obtained at Izaña (Tenerife) over the years 1981 - 1985, has shown the existence of significant signals in the frequency range...
Search for surface magnetic fields in Mira stars: first results on χ Cyg
So far, surface magnetic fields have never been reported on Mira stars, while observational facilities allowing detection and measurement of weak surface fields...
