  • THE SOLAR SYSTEM PLANETS AS A BASIS FOR EXOPLANETARY INTERPRETATION
    El descubrimiento relativamente reciente de los primeros exoplanetas ha transformado nuestra manera de los ver los planetas de nuestro Sistema Solar. Desde esta nueva perspectiva, nuestros vecinos nos proporcionan una valiosa información que puede ser usada como punto de referencia para analizar datos exoplanetarios. Esta tesis se centra en la

  • Using 3D Spectroscopy to Probe the Orbital Structure of Composite Bulges
    Detailed imaging and spectroscopic analysis of the centers of nearby S0 and spiral galaxies shows the existence of ``composite bulges'', where both classical bulges and disky pseudobulges coexist in the same galaxy. As part of a search for supermassive black holes in nearby galaxy nuclei, we obtained VLT-SINFONI observations in adaptive-optics mode

  • Time Variation of Kepler Transits Induced By Stellar Rotating Spots—a Way to Distinguish between Prograde and Retrograde Motion. I. Theory
    Some transiting planets discovered by the Kepler mission display transit timing variations (TTVs) induced by stellar spots that rotate on the visible hemisphere of their parent stars. An induced TTV can be observed when a planet crosses a spot and modifies the shape of the transit light curve, even if the time resolution of the data does not allow

  • The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. XVIII. Classifications and radial velocities of the B-type stars
    We present spectral classifications for 438 B-type stars observed as part of the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS) in the 30 Doradus region of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Radial velocities are provided for 307 apparently single stars, and for 99 targets with radial-velocity variations which are consistent with them being spectroscopic binaries. We

  • The two-colour EMCCD instrument for the Danish 1.54 m telescope and SONG
    We report on the implemented design of a two-colour instrument based on electron-multiplying CCD (EMCCD) detectors. This instrument is currently installed at the Danish 1.54 m telescope at ESO's La Silla Observatory in Chile, and will be available at the SONG (Stellar Observations Network Group) 1m telescope node at Tenerife and at other SONG nodes

  • The thirty gigahertz instrument receiver for the Q-U-I Joint Tenerife experiment: Concept and experimental results
    This paper presents the analysis, design, and characterization of the thirty gigahertz instrument receiver developed for the Q-U-I Joint Tenerife experiment. The receiver is aimed to obtain polarization data of the cosmic microwave background radiation from the sky, obtaining the Q, U, and I Stokes parameters of the incoming signal simultaneously
