We find a distinct stellar population in the counterrotating and kinematically decoupled core of the isolated massive elliptical galaxy NGC 1700. Coinciding...

CharlaEvolutionary paths of the most massive galaxies since z ~ 2
Observations have shown that massive galaxies at high redshift have much smaller sizes than galaxies of similar mass today. The mean stellar density of such...

CharlaGTC OSIRIS spectroscopy of a faint L subdwarf identified in UKIDSS
In this Breaking News seminar, I will describe our project dedicated to the search for ultracool low-metallicity dwarfs (or subdwarfs) in the large-scale...

CharlaHerMES HFLS3: A dust-obscured massive maximum-starburst galaxy at a redshift of 6.34
How do the first galaxies form and evolve? Optical and near-infrared deep surveys are now finding galaxies at very high redshifts. However, they are typically...

CharlaLight elements in stars with exoplanets
The surface abundance of lithium on the Sun is 140 times less than protosolar, yet the temperature at the base of the surface convective zone is not hot enough...

CharlaM43, the little sister of the Orion Nebula
We have selected the Galactic HII region M43, a close-by apparently spherical nebula ionized by a single star (HD37061, B0.5V) to investigate several topics of...

CharlaMAGIC observations and multiwavelength properties of the quasar 3C 279 in 2007 and 2009
3C 279, the first quasar discovered to emit VHE gamma-rays by the MAGIC telescope in 2006, was re-observed by MAGIC in January 2007 during a major optical flare...

CharlaMagnetic bright points in the quiet Sun
We present a visual determination of the number of bright points (BPs) existing in the quiet Sun, which are structures though to trace intense kG magnetic...

CharlaMagnetic fields and the outer rotation curve of M31
Recent observations of the rotation curve of M31 show a rise of the outer part that cannot be understood in terms of standard dark matter models or...
