Context. STEPARSYN is an automatic code written in Python 3.X designed to infer the stellar atmospheric parameters T eff, log g, and [Fe/H] of FGKM-type stars...

Context. Spectropolarimetric inversions are routinely used in the field of solar physics for the extraction of physical information from observations. The...

Quantitative information about variations in the background at J and K' are presented and used to develop guidelines for the acquisition and reduction of ground...

The low surface brightness (LSB) regime (μ g ≳ 26 mag arcsec -2) comprises a vast, mostly unexplored discovery space, from dwarf galaxies to the diffuse...

This paper explores three different strategies for the inversion of spectral lines (and their Stokes profiles) using artificial neural networks. It is shown...

An analysis of the 5 minute oscillation in the solar photosphere has been carried out using an inversion of the radiative transfer equation applied to a time...

Context. Stray light caused by scattering on optical surfaces and in the Earth's atmosphere degrades the spatial resolution of observations. Whereas post-facto...

Chemically tagging groups of stars born in the same birth cluster is a major goal of spectroscopic surveys. To investigate the feasibility of such strong...

Our understanding of how the size of galaxies has evolved over cosmic time is based on the use of the half-light (effective) radius as a size indicator...
