An analysis of the frequency spectrum of the amplitude modulation of specific l = 1 p modes was carried out. A mean rotational splitting value of 0.74 mHz was...
Rotational splitting measurements of less than 5 p-modes are calculated using different sources of data. For l=1, data obtained from years 1981 to 1985 is used...
Rotational variability in medium and large sized TNOs
Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) are considered some of the most pristine objects in the Solar System. Their surfaces display a wide range of compositions, going...
Rotational Variability of Asteroid 490 Veritas in the Near-Infrared.
We present rotationally resolved spectra of asteroid 490 Veritas in the near-infrared (NIR) that show interesting differences. Dynamical arguments indicate that...
Rotational velocities of single and binary O-type stars in the Tarantula Nebula
Rotation is a key parameter in the evolution of massive stars, affecting their evolution, chemical yields, ionizing photon budget, and final fate. We determined...
Rotationally Resolved Spitzer Spectra of Comet-Asteroid Transition Object 944 Hidalgo
Last year (Campins et al. 2006), we reported near-infrared rotational variability in ground-based spectra of comet-asteroid transition object 944 Hidalgo. Since...
Rotationally-Resolved Surface Mineralogy of an Extinct Comet
Object 944 Hidalgo is one of the asteroids most likely to be an extinct or dormant comet. Hidalgo's Tisserand invariant (T=2.07) suggests very strongly that...
Rubidium and Zirconium Production in Massive AGB Stars
A recent survey of a large sample of massive Galactic asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars shows that significant overabundances of rubidium (up to 100 times...
