With over 5 years of GOLF data having some 90% continuity, a new attempt has been made to search for possible solar g modes. Statistical methods are used, based...
A search for substellar members in the Praesepe and σ Orionis clusters
We have conducted deep photometric searches for substellar members of the Praesepe (0.5-1 Gyr) and σ Orionis (3 Myr) star clusters using the Sloan i' and z'...
A search for transiting planets around hot subdwarfs. I. Methods and performance tests on light curves from Kepler, K2, TESS, and CHEOPS
Context. Hot subdwarfs experienced strong mass loss on the red giant branch (RGB) and are now hot and small He-burning objects. These stars constitute excellent...
A seismic and gravitationally bound double star observed by Kepler. Implication for the presence of a convective core
Context. Solar-like oscillations have been observed by Kepler and CoRoT in many solar-type stars, thereby providing a way to probe stars using asteroseismology...
A seismological analysis of δ Scuti stars in the Pleiades cluster
A comparison between the oscillation frequencies of six multi-periodic δ Scuti stars of the Pleiades cluster and the eigenfrequencies of rotating stellar models...
A Si I atomic model for NLTE spectropolarimetric diagnostics of the 10 827 Å line
Aims: The Si i 10 827 Å line is commonly used for spectropolarimetric diagnostics of the solar atmosphere. First, we aim at quantifying the sensitivity of the...
A slow bar in the lenticular barred galaxy NGC 4277
Aims: We characterised the properties of the bar hosted in lenticular galaxy NGC 4277, which is located behind the Virgo cluster. Methods: We measured the bar...
A spatial study of the mid-IR emission features in four Herbig Ae/Be stars
Context: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy and imaging provide a prime tool to study the characteristics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules and the...
A spectroscopic analysis of the Luminous Blue Variable candidate WRA 751
We present spectroscopic observations of the LBV candidate WRA 751 taken at different epochs during the period 1989-1995. These observations are used to monitor...
