  • Space Telescope and Optical Reverberation Mapping Project. V. Optical Spectroscopic Campaign and Emission-line Analysis for NGC 5548
    We present the results of an optical spectroscopic monitoring program targeting NGC 5548 as part of a larger multiwavelength reverberation mapping campaign. The campaign spanned 6 months and achieved an almost daily cadence with observations from five ground-based telescopes. The Hβ and He ii λ4686 broad emission-line light curves lag that of the

  • Snorkelling between the stars: submarine methods for astronomical observations.
    Trying to reach diffraction-limited astronomical observations from ground-based telescopes is very challenging due to the atmospheric effects contributing to a general blurring of the images. However, astronomy is not the only science facing turbulence problems; obtaining quality images of the undersea world is as ambitious as it is on the sky. One

  • Searching for dust orbiting around activated asteroid 596 Scheila by means of stellar occultations
    596 Scheila is a main belt asteroid classified from 2010, when it presented cometary appearance, like a Main Belt Comet (MBC). We only known around a dozen of MBCs till to date. The MBCs present asteroid-like orbits –between Mars and Jupiter– but they have cometary appearances and/or behaviours. It is believed that the activity of Scheila was

  • Search for massive resonances decaying into WW, WZ or ZZ bosons in proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 TeV
    A search is presented for new massive resonances decaying to WW, WZ or ZZ bosons in ℓ ν q\overline{q} and q\overline{q}q\overline{q} final states. Results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3-2.7 fb-1 recorded in proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. Decays of spin-1 and spin-2

  • Search for heavy neutrinos or third-generation leptoquarks in final states with two hadronically decaying τ leptons and two jets in proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 TeV
    A search for new particles has been conducted using events with two high transverse momentum ( p T) τ leptons that decay hadronically, at least two high- p T jets, and missing transverse energy from the τ lepton decays. The analysis is performed using data from proton-proton collisions, collected by the CMS experiment in 2015 at √{s}=13 TeV

  • Search for dark matter and unparticles in events with a Z boson and missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at √{s}=13 TeV
    A search for dark matter and unparticle production at the LHC has been performed using events containing two charged leptons (electrons or muons), consistent with the decay of a Z boson, and large missing transverse momentum. This study is based on data collected with the CMS detector in 2015, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 fb-1
