  • Disc frequencies for brown dwarfs in the Upper Scorpius OB association: implications for brown dwarf formation theories
    We have investigated the brown dwarf (BD) and stellar disc fractions in the Upper Scorpius (USco) OB association and compared them with several other young regions. We have compiled the most complete sample of all spectroscopically confirmed BDs in USco and have made use of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) catalogue to identify the

  • Detection of very-high energy γ-ray emission from NGC 1275 by the MAGIC telescopes
    We report on the detection of very-high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) γ-ray emission from NGC 1275, the central radio galaxy of the Perseus cluster of galaxies. The source has been detected by the MAGIC telescopes with a statistical significance of 6.6σ above 100 GeV in 46 h of stereo observations carried out between August 2010 and February 2011. The

  • Cleaning spectroscopic samples of stars in nearby dwarf galaxies. The use of the nIR Mg I line to weed out Milky Way contaminants
    Dwarf galaxies provide insight into the processes of star formation and chemical enrichment at the low end of the galaxy mass function, as well as into the clustering of dark matter on small scales. In studies of Local Group dwarf galaxies, spectroscopic samples of individual stars are used to derive the internal kinematics and abundance properties
