Estrellas masivas en el universo local
Las estrellas masivas son agentes clave en la evolución química y dinámica del Universo. No solo liberan continuamente durante millones de años energía...
Estudian el caos magnético de las galaxias del Universo cercano
Una investigación internacional, con participación del Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias, revela que las perturbaciones en los campos magnéticos de las...
Euclid: High-precision imaging astrometry and photometry from Early Release Observations: I. Internal kinematics of NGC6397 by combining Euclid and Gaia data
The instruments at the focus of the Euclid space observatory offer superb, diffraction-limited imaging over an unprecedented (from space) wide field of view of...
Everything that glitters is not gold: V1315 Cas is not a dormant black hole
The quest for quiet or dormant black holes has been ongoing since several decades. Ellipsoidal variables possibly indicate the existence of a very high-mass...
Evidence for a black hole in the historical X-ray transient A 1524-61 (= KY TrA)
We present Very Large Telescope spectroscopy, high-resolution imaging, and time-resolved photometry of KY TrA, the optical counterpart to the X-ray binary A...
Evidence for a metal-poor population in the inner Galactic bulge
The inner Galactic bulge has, until recently, been avoided in chemical evolution studies because of extreme extinction and stellar crowding. Large, near-IR...
Evidence for Blue Straggler Stars Rejuvenating the Integrated Spectra of Globular Clusters
Integrated spectroscopy is the method of choice for deriving the ages of unresolved stellar systems. However, hot stellar evolutionary stages, such as hot...
Evidence for Evolved Stellar Binary Mergers in Observed B-type Blue Supergiants
Blue supergiants are the brightest stars in their host galaxies, and yet their evolutionary status has been a long-standing problem in stellar astrophysics. In...
Evidence for Population-dependent Vertical Motions and the Long-lived Nonsteady Lopsided Milky Way Warp
We present a Galactic disk vertical velocity analysis using OB type stars (OB stars), red clump (RC) stars, and main-sequence turnoff (MSTO) stars with...
