Exploring the atmosphere of GJ 1132 b with CRIRES+
With a mass, radius, and mean density similar to Earth's, the rocky planet GJ 1132 b is the first truly small planet for which an atmosphere detection was...
Exploring the circumstellar environment of the young eruptive star V2492 Cygni
Context. V2492 Cyg is a young eruptive star that went into outburst in 2010. The near-infrared color changes observed since the outburst peak suggest that the...
Exploring the correlation between dark matter, intracluster light, and globular cluster distribution in SMACS0723
We present a free-form model of SMACS0723, the first cluster observed with JWST. This model does not make any strong assumptions on the distribution of mass...
Exploring the lower mass function in the young open cluster IC 4665
We present a study of the young (30-100 Myr) open cluster IC 4665 with the aim to determine the shape of the mass function well into the brown dwarf regime. We...
Exploring the nature of dark matter with the extreme galaxy AGC 114905
AGC 114905 is a dwarf gas-rich ultra-diffuse galaxy seemingly in tension with the cold dark matter (CDM) model. Specifically, the galaxy appears to have an...
Exploring the nature of new main-belt comets with the 10.4 m GTC telescope: (300163) 2006 VW139
Aims: We aim to study the dust ejected by main-belt comet (MBC) (300163) 2006 VW139 to obtain information on the ejection mechanism and the spectral properties...
Exploring the physical origins of halo assembly bias from early times
Context. The large-scale linear halo bias encodes the relation between the clustering of dark-matter (DM) halos and that of the underlying matter density field...
Exploring the stellar surface phenomena of WASP-52 and HAT-P-30 with ESPRESSO
We analyse spectroscopic and photometric transits of the hot Jupiters WASP-52 b and HAT-P30 b obtained with ESPRESSO, Eulercam and NGTS for both targets, and...
Exploring the substellar population in the Hyades open cluster
Aims: Our aim is to identify substellar members of the nearby Hyades open star cluster to determine the photometric and spectroscopic properties of brown dwarfs...
