How to plan your astronomy research paper in ten steps
Scientific writing is an important skill for a career as a professional astrophysicist. However, very few researchers receive any formal training in how to...
How to prepare competitive proposals and job applications
Writing proposals and job applications is arguably one of the most important tasks in the career of a scientist. The proposed ideas must be scientifically...
How to write and develop your astronomy research paper
Writing is a vital component of a modern career in scientific research. But how to write correctly and effectively is often not included in the training that...
How well can we unravel the accreted constituents of the Milky Way stellar halo?: A test on cosmological hydrodynamical simulations
Context. One of the primary goals of Galactic Archaeology is to reconstruct the Milky Way's accretion history. To achieve this, significant efforts have been...
HR 10 as seen by CHEOPS and TESS: Revealing δ Scuti pulsations, granulation-like signal and hint for transients
Context. HR 10 has only recently been identified as a binary system. Previously thought to be an A-type shell star, it appears that both components are fast...
HS 0139+0559, HS 0229+8016, HS 0506+7725, and HS 0642+5049: four new long-period cataclysmic variables
We present time-resolved optical spectroscopy and photometry of four relatively bright (V˜14.0-15.5) long-period cataclysmic variables (CVs) discovered in the...
We have identified a new intermediate polar, HS 0943+1404, as part of our ongoing search for cataclysmic variables in the Hamburg Quasar Survey. The orbital and...
HS 1857+5144: a hot and young pre-cataclysmic variable
Aims:We report the discovery of a new white dwarf/M dwarf binary, HS 1857+5144, identified in the Hamburg Quasar Survey (HQS). Methods: Time-resolved optical...
HS 2325+8205 - An Ideal Laboratory for Accretion Disk Physics
We identify HS 2325+8205 as an eclipsing, frequently outbursting, dwarf nova with an orbital period of Porb = 279.841731(5) minutes. Spectroscopic observations...
