Membership, lithium and chromospheric activity of the young open clusters IC 2391, IC 2602 and IC 4665 from GES (Gaia-ESO Survey) observations
We conduct a comparative study of the main properties of the of the young open clusters IC 2391, IC 2602 and IC 4665, focusing on their membership, lithium...
Mentoring Program for Female Astronomers of the Spanish Astronomical Society: Walking together Towards the Stars
Mentoring programs for career and personal development have shown to be incredibly beneficial for mentees, boosting their work and life satisfaction. Mentoring...
Merger origin for counterrotating cores in elliptical galaxies.
Using numerical simulations of the merger between a high- and a low-luminosity elliptical galaxy the authors show that this type of merger can result in an...
Merger origin for the velocity and density substructure in elliptical galaxies
The dynamics of mergers between two unequal elliptical systems was studied with self-consistent numerical simulations. Comparisons of these models to real...
ESPRESSO is a fiber feed ultrastable High Resolution Spectrograph designed to work in the Combined-Coudé focus of Very Large Telescopes (VLT). A high resolution...
Meridional circulation from the equator to the poles is found by applying ring diagram analysis to helioseismic data. The data are SOI/MDI Dopplergrams taken...
Mesospheric sodium monitoring for laser guide star
The experimental study of sodium layer is relevant to fields such as adaptive optics, in particular for laser guide star generation. We have developed an...
