An international collaboration of astronomers led by the Universidad de La Laguna (ULL) and Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has identified two intriguing, humongous but light planets orbit ing HD 114082. This star is only 15 million years old, this is, much younger than the Sun (4.6 billion years old) , spin s 15 times faster , has 28% more mass , and is about one thousand degrees hotter and almost four times more luminous. Its planets receive about 200 times more light and heat than Jupiter. The study, which involved separating the faint planetary signal from the stellar oneAdvertised on -
A team of scientists, including astrophysicist Carlos Hernández Monteagudo from the University of La Laguna (ULL) and the Canary Islands Institute of Astrophysics (IAC), has compiled one of the most comprehensive catalogues of small bodies in the Solar System, based on photometric observations made from Earth. The study, published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, compiles data on 6,579 asteroids, comets and irregular satellites, mainly from the main belt located between Mars and Jupiter, opening up new possibilities for studying their composition and rotation.
