On the Rapidly Cooling Interior of Supergalactic Winds
Here we present the steady-state numerical solution and two-dimensional hydrodynamic calculations of supergalactic winds, taking into consideration strong...
On the Recent History of Star Formation in the Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxy VII Zw 403
Here we attempt to infer the recent history of star formation in the BCD galaxy VII Zw 403, based on an analysis that accounts for the dynamics of the remnant...
On the red giant branch mass loss in 47 Tucanae: Constraints from the horizontal branch morphology
We obtain stringent constraints on the actual efficiency of mass loss for red giant branch stars in the Galactic globular cluster 47 Tuc, by comparing synthetic...
We report results of a spectroscopic campaign carried out at the 10 m Gran Telescopio Canarias for a sample of 22 BL Lac objects detected (or candidates) at TeV...
On the redshift of the very high-energy gamma-ray BL Lac object S2 0109+22
The determination of the redshift of extragalactic gamma-ray sources is of fundamental importance for the interpretation of their emission models and...
On the relation between active-region lifetimes and the autocorrelation function of light curves
Rotational modulation of stellar light curves due to dark spots encloses information on spot properties and, thus, on magnetic activity. In particular, the...
On the relation between the coronal line emission and the infrared/X-ray emission in Seyfert galaxies
The relation between the X-ray, the coronal line and the infrared (IR) emissions in a sample of the brightest known Seyfert galaxies is analysed. A close...
On the relation between the intensities of bright features and the local background in sunspot umbrae
A photometric study of umbral bright features (umbral dots, clusters of umbral dots, bright grains of light bridges) in sunspots is presented. It is based on...
On the relation between the IR continuum and the active galactic nucleus in Seyfert galaxies
A sample of the brightest known Seyfert galaxies from the CfA sample is analyzed on the basis of ISO photometric and spectroscopic data. Regardless of the...
