Continuum subtracted dereddened images in several emission lines reveal the existence of an extended bipolar shell around η Carinae. It is best seen in the...
An Optical Intermediate Dispersion Spectrograph for the GTC
ODIN is an international consortium constituted to design and build a first-light multi-purpose optical intermediate dispersion spectrograph for the Gran...
An optical spectroscopic study of a LLQSOs sample and the impact of the aperture effect on its classification
Low Luminosity Quasi Stellar Objects comprise key objects in the context of galaxy evolution scenarios. They may represent the transition population between...
An Optimized H_β Index for Disentangling Stellar Clusters and Galaxy Ages
We have derived a new H_{β} absorption index definition, which is fully optimized as an age indicator for old and intermediate-aged stellar populations. Rather...
An Overview of the Bowen Survey: Detecting Donor Star Signatures in Low Mass X-ray Binaries
In this paper we give a review of the Bowen fluorescence survey, showing that narrow emission lines (mainly N III and C III lines between 4630 and 4660 A˚)...
