Descripción
Ursa Minor (UMi) is one of the closest satellites of the Milky Way (d=69 kpc). It is possibly a disrupted dSph interacting with the external Galactic halo. This makes its study quite necessary in the forementioned context. In this paper we present preliminary results of a wide field photometry survey of UMi and discuss the presence of an intermediate-age population and tidal tails in it.

    KIC 9163796 - Age determination by asteroseismic grid modelling for an oscillating red giant binary
    The age of a star cannot be measured but only inferred from observational quantities related to age. A wellknown stellar age greatly impacts our understanding of evolution on much larger scales, such as exoplanetary systems or the history of the Milky Way. For stars in the red-giant phase, comparison of observations with evolutionary models

    Application of Bayesian Inference to disentangle CMB foregrounds
    Both Galactic dust emission and Cosmic infrared background anisotropies (CIB) act as a dominant foreground contaminant for the measurements of the CMB anisotropies (intensity and polarization) at the frequency range above 217 GHz. The Galactic dust and CIB share a similar form of spectral energy distribution, which makes it harder to disentangle

    Constraining stellar and orbital co-evolution through ensemble seismology of solar-like oscillators in binary systems
    The evolution of stars and their hosting binary systems is a highly interactive process and cannot be investigated in a segregated manner. Due to the constraints drawn by stellar binarity, oscillating red-giant stars in binary systems represent a unique opportunity to study the details of the structure and evolution of stars in the advanced phases
