In its most general acceptation, surface photometry is a technique applicable to any "extended" object, irrespective of the spectral band of the observational...
Surface rotation and magnetic activity for 55,000+ Kepler solar-type stars
Dark magnetic spots co-rotating with the stellar surface lead to quasi-periodic brightness variations, which enclose relevant information on stellar rotation...
Surface rotation and magnetic activity of solar-like stars observed by the Kepler mission
Stars with an external convective envelope have rotation periods that evolve as the square root of the age on the main sequence. This led to empirical...
Surface Rotation and Magnetic Activity of Solar-Like Stars: Impact on Seismic Detections
Rotation plays an important role in the evolution of stars. For decades rotation-age relationships have been used as surface rotation can be measured rather...
Surface-brightness fluctuations in stellar populations
A new theoretical calibration of surface-brightness fluctuations (SBF) for single age, single metallicity stellar populations is presented for the optical and...
Surfactant role of (TM)Sb in MOVPE growth of metamorphic InGaAs graded buffers
We present a virtual substrate for high quality InAs epitaxial layer, obtained via metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy growth of Sb-assisted InxGa1-xAs metamorphic...
Surprising Existence of Massive and Large Molecular Gas Reservoirs in A Distant Protocluster
We know that environment has a critical impact on galaxy growth and evolution. What we do not know is when it starts to have an impact and how it does it. I...
