Description
We present long-slit observations in the red and near infrared of 12 HII galaxies made with the Isaac Newton Telescope at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory in 1999 February and 2000 January. The spectral range includes the sulphur lines [SII] at 6717, 6731 Å and [SIII] at 9069, 9532 Å. For all the observed galaxies, ion-weighted temperatures from optical forbidden auroral to nebular line ratios have been obtained in order to study the inner ionization structure of these high excitation objects, as well as the oxygen and sulphur abundances.

    The RAD12 object's recent investigation (Hota et al. 2022), via the RAD@home Astronomy Collaboratory, has provided a streamlined and focused perspective on the complex subject of jet-galaxy interactions, which has always posed a significant challenge for observational confirmation. This emerging field holds increasing significance, providing a

    A Disc Wind Where You Least Expect It: The Outflow in the Short-period X-ray Binary UW CrB
    Studying outflows of low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) is important for understanding the physics of accretion, the evolution of compact binaries, and dynamics of the local interstellar medium. One significant source of these outflows is the accretion disc wind, which can blow away vast amounts of material from the disc before it can be accreted on

    Constraining the core-rotation rate along the red-giant evolution
    The evolution of the core rotation rate of red giant stars is a key parameter in understanding the stellar behavior in the late phases of stellar evolution. Thanks to the mixed-dipole modes, we can constrain the core rotation and internal rotational gradient as a star advances through the red-giant phase. This master thesis presents a pipeline
