We report on a deep photometric survey covering an area of 1.17 deg2 in the young Upper Scorpius stellar association using VIMOS Iz and UKIDSS ZJHK data that was taken with several years in between. The search for the least massive population of Upper Scorpius (~5-10 Myr, 145 pc) is performed on the basis of various optical and infrared color-color

We produce and analyse eclipse time variation (ETV) curves for some 2600 Kepler binaries. We find good to excellent evidence for a third body in 222 systems via either the light-travel-time (LTTE) or dynamical effect delays. Approximately half of these systems have been discussed in previous work, while the rest are newly reported here. Via

Los objetos transneptunianos son pequeños cuerpos helados que orbitan más allá de la órbita de Neptuno. Estos cuerpos se encuentran entre los menos procesados de Sistema Solar, por lo que su estudio proporciona valiosa información sobre la formación del Sistema Solar y sobre su evolución. En esta tesis presentamos el estudio de la variación de la

Recent studies on the comparison between the Multi Aperture Scintillation Sensor (MASS) and Generalized Scintillation Detection and Ranging (G-SCIDAR) profiler techniques have suggested significant discrepancies between the results delivered by the two instruments. MASS has been largely used in the recent site testing campaigns for the future next

In the context of the Transit Monitoring in the South project, we present nine new transit observations of the exoplanet OGLE-TR-113b observed with the Gemini South, Magellan Baade, Danish-1.54 m and Southern Astrophysical Research telescopes. We perform a homogeneous analysis of these new transits together with 10 literature transits to probe into
