    Part 1: A supernova search in starburst galaxies & Part 2: Starbursts and EMIR project
    With the aim of testing the relation between supernova (SN) rate and star formation rate, we conducted a SN search in a sample of local starburst galaxies (SBs)...

    Photometry of SN 2002bo with template image subtraction
    VRI photometry of the type Ia supernova 2002bo is presented. This SN exploded in a dusty region of the host galaxy NGC 3190, thus, subtraction of a template...

    Principles of supernova-driven winds
    The formation of galaxies is regulated by a balance between the supply of gas and the rate at which it is ejected. Traditional explanations of gas ejection...
