Intrinsic parameters of galactic luminous OB stars
We present the results of a spectroscopic analysis of 25 galactic luminous OB stars. The gravities are in general lower than previously assumed, especially for...
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a new observatory for very high-energy (VHE) gamma rays. CTA has ambitions science goals, for which it is necessary to...
Introducing the LBT Imaging of Galactic Halos and Tidal Structures (LIGHTS) survey. A preview of the low surface brightness Universe to be unveiled by LSST
We present the first results of the LBT Imaging of Galaxy Haloes and Tidal Structures (LIGHTS) survey. LIGHTS is an ongoing observational campaign with the 2 ×...
Inversion equation for the study of circumstellar dust shells - Application to Beta Pictoris
For circumstellar systems with an orientation perpendicular to the plane of the sky, and under some simplifying assumptions, the surface brightness integral...
Inversion of stellar statistics equation for the Galactic bulge
A method based on Lucy's iterative algorithm is developed to invert the equation of stellar statistics for the Galactic bulge and is then applied to the K-band...
An inversion code of Stokes line profiles is presented. It allows the recovery of the stratification of the temperature, the magnetic field vector, and the line...
Inversion of Stokes Profiles from Solar Magnetic Elements
We describe a new LTE inversion code for the analysis of Stokes profiles emerging from unresolved magnetic elements. It has been specifically designed to obtain...
Inversion of Stokes profiles with systematic effects
Quantitative thermodynamical, dynamical and magnetic properties of the solar and stellar plasmas are obtained by interpreting their emergent non-polarized and...
