Extrasolar planetas (exoplanets), or planets orbiting stars other than our own Sun, are a relatively new field of the astronomical and planetary sciences. After...

This volume presents the lectures from the sixteenth Winter School of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias, which was dedicated to extrasolar planets...

From a long-term study of IR mergers/QSOs (at low redshift), we report detailed spectroscopic evidences for outflow (OF)and starburst features. We found extreme...

We measure and analyze the sizes of 82 massive (M ≥ 1011 M &sun;) galaxies at 1. 7 ≤ z ≤ 3 utilizing deep HST NICMOS data taken in the GOODS North and South...

Large-Scale observing facilities are scarce and costly. Even so, the perspective to enlarge or to increase the number of these facilities are quite real and...

As part of our deep multi-colour survey of two gravitational lensing clusters, Abell 1835 (z=0.252) and AC114 (z=0.312) used to search for very high redshift...

In this paper we present the photometric properties of a sample of extremely red galaxies (EROs, R-Ks≥5.6), found in the field of the lensing cluster Abell 1835...

We present two-dimensional Fabry-Perot observations of the emission-line distribution and kinematics in nearby spiral galaxies. We have developed and...
