The Challenges of Observing, Calibrating, and Modeling Stellar Spectral Energy Distributions
While optical and quantum efficiency are on the rise, and spectrographs becoming massively multiplexed, measuring spectral energy distributions of astronomical...
The ChaMP: Robust X-ray Source Detection Techniques and Preliminary Results
We present reliable, serendipitous x-ray detections found in three different deep ACIS imaging fields in two different energy bandpasses. We ran the Chandra X...
The Chandra Multi-wavelength Project (ChaMP): X-ray Data Analysis
We present step-by-step X-ray data analysis procedures as part of the Chandra Multi-wavelength Project. They consist of additional data corrections and data...
The characteristics and development status of the control and housekeeping electronics of FRIDA
FRIDA (inFRared Imager and Dissector for the Adaptive optics system of the Gran Telescopio Canarias) is a diffraction limited instrument that will offer broad...
The Chemical Abundances of I ZW 18 from Bidimensional Spectroscopy
Preliminary results from bidimensional long-slit spectroscopic observations of the prototypical low-metallicity dwarf galaxy I Zw 18 are presented. Eight evenly...
We summarize the results of a chemical analysis of a sample of 23 galactic R stars (cool and warm spectral types) with accurate parallaxes measured by Hipparcos...
The preliminary results of the chemical analysis of a sample of 22 galactic R-stars with measured parallaxes are presented. We have derived the C/O and 12C/13C...
