  • Bayesian bulge-disc decomposition of galaxy images
    We introduce PHI, a fully Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm designed for the structural decomposition of galaxy images. PHI uses a triple layer approach to effectively and efficiently explore the complex parameter space. Combining this with the use of priors to prevent non-physical models, PHI offers a number of significant advantages for

  • Basaltic asteroids: a howardites - eucrites - diogenites view
    We present a compositional classification of 374 V-type asteroids selected from the MOVIS catalogue. The classification was made by comparing the V-types colors with those of a sample of 65 HED(Howardites, Eucrites, Diogenites) meteorites from RELAB database. We found that 51 % of the V-type asteroids can be associated with Eucrites, 29 % with

  • Astronomy in Roman urbanism: a statistical analysis of the orientation of Roman towns in the Iberian Peninsula
    The work presented in this article is part of a wide-ranging and ambitious project, started few years ago, to study the role of astronomy in Roman urban layout. In particular, the main aim is to check whether Roman cities present astronomical patterns in their orientations. The project emerged from ideas on how to properly orientate the main

  • Astronomy and ritual in the protohistory of the southeast of the Iberian peninsula
    Along the first millennium BCE and up to the beginning of the Roman conquest at the end of III century BCE, the southeast part of the Iberian Peninsula was colonized by Phoenicians, Greeks and Punics. All these cultures influenced the religious and funereal world of the indigenous peoples. Tartessians and Iberians were the main Protohistoric
