Descripción
CCD surface photometry of the radio galaxy B2 0034+25 is reported. Fourier analysis of the intensity variations along a set of closely spaced elliptical contours fitted to the intensity distribution reveals a high positive cos 4-theta component in the inner 10 arcsecs. Subtraction of elliptical models of the stellar light shows the presence of a disk component at approximately a right angle to the axis of the radio jet. The warped structure of the disk suggests that it is settling into a preferred orientation along the major axis of the main galaxy. The morphology of the system as the result of a merging process and the role of the stellar disk in the collimation of the radio plasma are discussed.

    The ArmazoNes high Dispersion Echelle Spectrograph (ANDES) is the optical and near-infrared high-resolution echelle spectrograph envisioned for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). We present a selection of science cases, supported by new calculations and simulations, where ANDES could enable major advances in the fields of stars and stellar

    Euclid preparation. XXXVI. Modelling the weak lensing angular power spectrum

    This work considers which higher order modeling effects on the cosmic shear angular power spectra must be taken into account for Euclid. We identified the relevant terms and quantified their individual and cumulative impact on the cosmological parameter inferences from Euclid. We computed the values of these higher order effects using analytic

    The compact multi-planet system GJ 9827 revisited with ESPRESSO★

    GJ 9827 is a bright, nearby K7V star orbited by two super-Earths and one mini-Neptune on close-in orbits. The system was first discovered using K2 data and then further characterized by other spectroscopic and photometric instruments. Previous literature studies provide several mass measurements for the three planets, however, with large variations
