Our new infrared spectra of asteroid 24 Themis indicate water ice is not only present but also widespread on its surface. Our identification of water ice agrees...
The imaging magnetograph eXperiment for the SUNRISE balloon Antarctica project
The SUNRISE balloon project is a high-resolution mission to study solar magnetic fields able to resolve the critical scale of 100 km in the solar photosphere...
The IMaX polarimeter for the solar telescope SUNRISE of the NASA long duration balloon program
On June 8th 2009 the SUNRISE mission was successfully launched. This mission consisted of a 1m aperture solar telescope on board of a stratospheric balloon...
The Impact of a Fossil Magnetic Field on Dipolar Mixed-Mode Frequencies in Sub- and Red-Giant Stars
The recent discovery of low-amplitude dipolar oscillation mixed modes in massive red giants indicates the presence of a missing physical process inside their...
The impact of binary interaction on the main-sequence morphology of young star clusters
Since massive stars form preferentially as members of close binary systems, we use dense grids of detailed binary evolution models to explore how binary...
The impact of dust attenuation laws on the stellar mass of galaxies ─ based on 170 million galaxies from HELP survey
The Herschel Extragalactic Legacy Project (HELP) focused on the data from ESA's Herschel} mission, which covered around 1300~$\rm deg^2$ on the sky. HELP...
The Impact of Gaia and LSST on Binaries and Exoplanets
Two upcoming large scale surveys, the ESA Gaia and LSST projects, will bring a new era in astronomy. The number of binary systems that will be observed and...
