We present Very Large Telescope (VLT) intermediate resolution spectroscopy of UY Vol, the optical counterpart of the low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) X-ray burster...

A flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe dominated by a cosmological constant (Λ) and cold dark matter (CDM) has been the working model preferred by...

Dynamical problems associated with the orbital motion of dust particles in strong gravitational and radiation fields are analyzed. The general relativistic...

We present outburst spectroscopy of GX 339-4 that may reveal the motion of its elusive companion star. N III lines exhibit sharp emission components moving over...

We report the first spectroscopic detection of the secondary star in the X-ray transient QZ Vul (=GS 2000+25). Cross-correlation of individual spectra against K...

We investigate, via numerical simulations, the tidal stripping and accretion of globular clusters (GCs). In particular, we focus on creating models that...

We study the dynamical interactions of mass systems in equilibrium under their own gravity that mutually exert and experience gravitational forces. The method...

We present a dynamical study of the eclipsing intermediate polar XY Ari based on time-resolved near-infrared spectroscopy obtained with the EMIR spectrograph on...

We study whether dry merger-driven size growth of massive elliptical galaxies depends on their initial structural concentration, and analyse the validity of the...
