The goal of this paper is to present the Transmission Matrix of the SPI Mask STM/QM Model. The experimental set-up used to determine INTEGRAL Spectrometer (SPI) Mask Transmission Matrix is hereafter described: collimation system, radioactive sources, energy ranges covered and pitch angles covering the expected SPI Field of View. The QM results

Determination of the iron content of Cepheids from the shape of their light curves
We present the study of the metallicity dependence of the Fourier amplitude ratios R21 and R31 for the light curves of short-period Galactic classical Cepheids in B, V, RC and IC bands. Based on the available photometric and spectroscopic data, we determined the relations between the atmospheric iron abundance, [Fe/H], and the Fourier parameters

Determining the population of Cataclysmic Variables in the Globular Cluster NGC2808
Close binaries, and in particular cataclysmic variables (CVs), play a vital role in the dynamical evolution of globular clusters. It is, therefore, important to understand the formation of these systems in the core of a cluster. Here we propose to test the dynamical formation scenarios of CVs by observing NGC 2808 in the X-rays with Chandra. In

Development status of the telescope for the Ingenio/SEOSAT mission primary payload
Ingenio/SEOSAT is the flagship mission for the Spanish Space Plan 2007-2011, as is currently under development by a Spanish industrial consortium in the framework of an ESA contract. Ingenio/SEOSAT is a multi-spectral high-resolution optical satellite for Earth Remote Sensing, designed to provide imagery to different Spanish civil, institutional

Discovery of a brown dwarf in the Pleiades star cluster
BROWN dwarfs are cool star-like objects that have insufficient mass to maintain stable nuclear fusion in their interiors. Although brown dwarfs are not stars, they are expected to form in the same way, and their frequency of occurrence should reflect the trends seen in the birthrates of low-mass stars. But finding brown dwarfs has proved to be

Discovery of a planet around the K giant star 4 Ursae Majoris
For the past 3 years we have been monitoring a sample of 62 K giant stars using precise stellar radial velocity measurements with high accuracy taken at the Thüringer Landessternwarte Tautenburg. We search for sub-stellar companions to giant stars and try to understand the nature of the diverse radial velocity variations exhibited by K giant stars
