Context. We present the study of a magnitude limited sample (mB ≤ 16.6 mag) of 13 late type galaxies (LTGs), observed inside the virial radius, Rvir ˜ 0.7 Mpc, of the Fornax cluster within the Fornax Deep Survey (FDS). Aims: The main objective is to use surface brightness profiles and g - i colour maps to obtain information on the internal

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) appear to be some of the most dark matter (DM)-dominated objects in the Universe. Their dynamical masses are commonly derived using the kinematics of stars under the assumption of equilibrium. However, these objects are satellites of massive galaxies (e.g. the Milky Way) and thus can be influenced by their tidal

Aims: We aim to investigate the validity of the weak field approximation (WFA) for determining magnetic fields in quiet regions of the solar photosphere using the polarization caused by the Zeeman effect in the Si I 10 827 Å line. Methods: We solved the NLTE line formation problem by means of multilevel radiative transfer calculations in a three

We present a WFC3 F160W (H-band) selected catalog in the CANDELS/GOODS-N field containing photometry from the ultraviolet (UV) to the far-infrared (IR), photometric redshifts, and stellar parameters derived from the analysis of the multiwavelength data. The catalog contains 35,445 sources over the 171 arcmin2 of the CANDELS F160W mosaic. The 5σ

Aims: We present high-resolution and high-quality UVES spectroscopic data of the metal-poor double-lined spectroscopic binary CS 22876-032 ([Fe/H] approximately -3.7 dex). Our goal is to derive the 6Li/7Li isotopic ratio by analysing the Li I λ 670.8 nm doublet. Methods: We co-added all 28 useful spectra normalised and corrected for radial velocity

The observation of exoplanets during their primary transits and secondary eclipses is a powerful tool to characterise their atmospheres. These observations provide important information about their temperature structures and circulation efficiencies, as well as the ability to detect the presence of clouds, hazes and specific molecular features
