Descripción
CCD narrow-band H-alpha photometry of the Sextans A Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy is presented. Fourteen H II regions have been recorded. Their identification charts, H-alpha luminosities and sizes are given, and their luminosity and size distributions are discussed. Twenty-five stars with masses between 15 and 30 solar masses, distributed following the IMF of Sextans A, are enough to produce the ionization observed in the galaxy.

    Constraining the TeV gamma-ray emission of SN 2024bch, a possible type IIn-L from a red supergiant progenitor: Multiwavelength observations and analysis of the progenitor
    We present very high-energy optical photometry and spectroscopic observations of SN 2024bch in the nearby galaxy NGC 3206 (∼20 Mpc). We used gamma-ray observations performed with the first Large-Sized Telescope (LST-1) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) and optical observations with the Liverpool Telescope (LT) combined with data

    Revisiting symbiotic binaries with interferometry: II. New PIONIER data
    Symbiotic stars, which generally comprise a red giant and an accreting white dwarf, are excellent laboratories to understand mass transfer in long-period binaries. One of the fundamental questions is how mass is transferred from the red giant to the white dwarf. We used interferometric measurements made with the VLTI/PIONIER instrument, combined

    Testing the performance of cross-correlation techniques to search for molecular features in JWST NIRSpec G395H observations of transiting exoplanets
    Cross-correlations techniques offer an alternative method to search for molecular species in James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations of exoplanet atmospheres. In a previous article, we applied cross-correlation functions for the first time to JWST NIRSpec/G395H observations of exoplanet atmospheres, resulting in a detection of CO in the
