This paper analyses the Whole Earth Telescope observations of HL Tau 76, the first discovered pulsating DA white dwarf. The star was observed during two Whole Earth Telescope campaigns. It was a second priority target during the XCOV13 campaign in 1996 and the first priority one during the XCOV18 campaign in 1999. The 1999 campaign reached 66.5%

The relation among V-type asteroids in the Main Belt, the large basaltic asteroid (4) Vesta and the HED meteorites is a long standing issue. To better constraint this relation we analysed the spectral parameter distribution of a sample of V-type asteroids, located in the vicinity of (4) Vesta, and of basaltic achondrites meteorites. Our results

This paper describes a very general approach to the calculation of the Zeeman splitting effect produced by an external magnetic field on the rotational levels of diatomic molecules. The method is valid for arbitrary values of the total electronic spin and of the magnetic field strength-that is, it holds for molecular electronic states of any

In this paper we present the WeCAPP catalogue of variable stars found in the bulge of M 31. Observations in the WeCAPP microlensing survey (optical R and I bands) for a period of three years (2000-2003) resulted in a database with unprecedented time coverage for an extragalactic variable star study. We detected 23781 variable sources in a 16.1

We present optical observations of a ULX in the nearby spiral galaxy IC 342. This variable source has an average X-ray luminosity of some 10^{40} erg/s. At the position of the source there is an ionized nebula (the "Tooth") having huge dimensions (280 x 130 pc), much larger than normal supernova remnants. Our optical spectra reveal highly
