Description
The Calar Alto Large Integral Field Area Survey (CALIFA) is a recently started survey with the main aims at observing a statistically well-defined sample of ˜ 600 galaxies in the local universe with the PMAS/PPAK integral field spectrophotometer on the 3.5 m telescope at the CAHA. The main goal of this survey is to characterize the spatially resolved spectroscopic properties (both the stellar and ionized gas components) of all the population of galaxies at the current cosmological time, in order to understand in detail the how is the final product of the evolution of galaxies. To guarantee the final science product of the CALIFA survey, exploratory pilot studies aimed to test the observing program, the data reduction and the quality of the final data were carried out. Here we present a first spectroscopic analysis of these pilot studies. In addition, we use the advantages of 2D spectroscopy to explore the aperture effects when comparing in the diagnostic diagrams for their classification.

    Workshop summary: Kaons@CERN 2023

    Kaon physics is at a turning point - while the rare-kaon experiments NA62 and KOTO are in full swing, the end of their lifetime is approaching and the future experimental landscape needs to be defined. With HIKE, KOTO-II and LHCb-Phase-II on the table and under scrutiny, it is a very good moment in time to take stock and contemplate about the

    3.5 years of observing exoplanet day sides with CHEOPS

    Characterising Exoplanets Satellite (CHEOPS) is the first ESA exoplanet space mission. The satellite carries a 30cm telescope, optimised to deliver exquisite (ppm-level) photometry of bright exoplanetary systems at optical wavelengths. CHEOPS has spent approximately 20% of its observing time during its 3.5-year long nominal mission studying

    Finding Water Worlds with Transit Timing Variations

    Models predict that planets with water-rich compositions may be common around low-mass stars, but definitive evidence for the existence of water worlds has remained elusive. Precise mass and radius measurements for small planets allow us to identify candidate water worlds that have bulk densities too low to be consistent with a rocky composition
