The C-19 stream is the most metal-poor stellar system ever discovered, with a mean metallicity [Fe/H] = -3.38 ± 0.06. Its low metallicity dispersion (σ [Fe/H] < 0.18 at the 95 per cent confidence level) and variations in sodium abundances strongly suggest a globular cluster origin. In this work, we use Very Large Telescope (VLT)/UV-Visual Echelle

The European Solar Telescope (EST) is a 4-meter class solar telescope led by the Instituto Astrofísico de Canarias that will be erected in La Palma Island. The design process is now approaching the Preliminary Design Review. The EST, as solar telescope, will have singularities that make its design differ from other telescopes. Telescope

Additive manufacture (AM), also known as 3D printing, builds an object, layer-by-layer, from a digital design file. The primary advantage of the layer-by-layer approach is the increase in design-space, which enables engineers and scientists to create structures and geometries that would not be practical, or possible, via conventional subtractive

The QUIJOTE (Q-U-I joint Tenerife) experiment combines the operation of two radio-telescopes and three instruments working in the microwave bands 10-20 GHz, 26-36 GHz and 35-47 GHz at the Teide Observatory, Tenerife, and has already been presented in previous SPIE meetings (Hoyland, R. J. et al, 2012; Rubi∼no-Martín et al., 2012). The Cosmology

With a hydrodynamical simulation using a simple galaxy formation model without taking into account feedback, our previous work has shown that dense and massive filaments at high redshift can provide potential wells to trap and compress gas, and hence affect galaxy formation in their resident low-mass haloes. In this paper, we make use of the Auriga

A number of studies based on the data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) GO-13297 program "HST Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters: Shedding UV Light on Their Populations and Formation" have investigated the photometric properties of a large sample of Galactic globular clusters and revolutionized our understanding of their
