Very-High-Energy γ-Ray Observations of a Strong Flaring Activity in M 87 in 2008 February
M 87 is the only known non blazar radio galaxy to emit very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays. During a monitoring program of M 87, a rapid flare in VHE gamma-rays...
Very-high-energy γ-rays from the universe middle age: Detection of B0218+357 and PKS1441+25 with the MAGIC telescopes
Out of the ˜ 70 extragalactic sources known to emit in the Very High Energy band (VHE, E > 100GeV), only 5-6 are known to be Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs)...
Vestige of a Beginning: a Quest for 142Nd Anomalies in the Earth
Although seismic tomography evidence leaves no room for fully layered mantle convection, it is still arguable that over Earth's history convection has...
Vestoids and V-type asteroids: A Mineralogical Characterization.
Asteroid (4) Vesta is known as the unique large object of the main belt showing a basaltic crust and is a target of the NASA Dawn Mission. Vesta composition is...
We select 4 pointings for the Wide Field Camera (WFC) mounted at the prime focus of the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), located at the Roque de Los Muchachos...
VI and [Fe/H] of Fornax dSph RGB stars (Battaglia+, 2006)
We present the results of the DART imaging and CaII triplet (CaT) survey of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) at ESO. We collected hundreds of low...
VI photometry in Phoenix dwarf galaxy (Battaglia+, 2012)
The observations were carried out between 2009 June 20 and August 20 in service mode with the ESO VLT instrument FORS2 at UT1 (Antu). FORS2 is a focal reducer...
Deep HST ACS images of Virgo from the VICS project (Ciardullo et al.) contain 4 resolved objects that appear to be intergalactic globular clusters (IGCs)...
