We present the discovery of 17 low-mass white dwarfs (WDs) in short-period (P

We report in this work on a project aimed at determining Lyα luminosity functions from z=3 to z=6. The project is based on the use of very deep photometry from the SHARDS Survey, in a set of 24 medium band filters in the GOODS-N field. We present here some preliminary work carried out with four test images in four consecutive bands. We use the

We present results from the deepest Herschel-Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) far-infrared blank field extragalactic survey, obtained by combining observations of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) fields from the PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP) and GOODS-Herschel key programmes. We describe data reduction and

We present a deep spectrophotometric mosaic of the Orion Nebula obtained with the Potsdam Multi-Aperture Spectrophotometer (PMAS) at Calar Alto Observatory. The aim of the observations has been to determine the spatial distribution of physical conditions and chemical abundances across the nebula and at different morphological structures. The 64

Among the distinguishing characteristics of the remarkable hot R Coronae Borealis star DY Centauri, which was recently found to be a spectroscopic binary, is the presence of nebular forbidden lines in its optical spectrum. A compilation of photometry from 1970 to the present suggests that the star has evolved to higher effective temperatures. A

We present a sample of the most massive galaxies (M^{*}>10^{11}{M}_{&sun;}) found at z=0 in a fully cosmological simulation performed with MASCLET (Mesh Adaptative Scheme for CosmologicaL structurE evoluTion). te{quilis04} The Upper (lower) pannel shows the merger (quiet) galaxies depending on elipticity (ɛ) and velocity vs velocity-dispersion (v/σ
