Aims.We present reflectance spectra of three V-type Near-Earth Objects obtained at the 3.6 m Telescopio Nazionale Galileo and at the 2.5 m Nordic Optical Telescope covering the near-infrared and visible range, respectively. The range from 0.5 to 2.5 μm, encompassing the 1 and 2 μm pyroxene features, allows a mineralogical characterization of these

We present a compositional classification of 374 V-type asteroids selected from the MOVIS catalogue. The classification was made by comparing the V-types colors with those of a sample of 65 HED(Howardites, Eucrites, Diogenites) meteorites from RELAB database. We found that 51 % of the V-type asteroids can be associated with Eucrites, 29 % with

We introduce PHI, a fully Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm designed for the structural decomposition of galaxy images. PHI uses a triple layer approach to effectively and efficiently explore the complex parameter space. Combining this with the use of priors to prevent non-physical models, PHI offers a number of significant advantages for

We present Belgrade astronomical community web site the purpose of which is to provide basic information about students graduated from the Department of Astronomy, Faculty of Mathematics, University of Belgrade, as well as about our current students and friends worldwide, and to help them communicating.

We have discovered three certain (SAX J1324.5-6313, 2S 1711-339 and SAX J1828.5-1037) and two likely (SAX J1818.7+1424 and SAX J2224.9+5421) new thermonuclear X-ray burst sources with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras, and observed a second burst ever from a sixth one (2S 0918-549). Four of them (excluding 2S 1711-339 and 2S 0918-549) are newly

The faint end of the differential galaxy number counts n(m) in the Hubble Deep Field-North (HDF-N) has been determined for the F450W, F606W, and F814W filters by means of surface brightness fluctuation measurements. This technique allows us to explore n(m) beyond the limiting magnitude of the HDF, providing new, stronger constraints on the faint
