    A spectroscopic analysis of the Luminous Blue Variable candidate WRA 751
    We present spectroscopic observations of the LBV candidate WRA 751 taken at different epochs during the period 1989-1995. These observations are used to monitor...

    A spectroscopic and kinematic survey of fast hot subdwarfs
    Hot subdwarfs (sdO/B) are the stripped helium cores of red giants formed via binary interactions. Close hot subdwarf binaries with massive white dwarf...

    A spectroscopic atlas of post-AGB stars and planetary nebulae selected from the IRAS point source catalogue
    Aims.We study the optical spectral properties of a sample of stars showing far infrared colours similar to those of well-known planetary nebulae. The large...

    A statistical study of plasmoids associated with a post-CME current sheet
    Context. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are often observed to be accompanied by flare, current sheets, and plasmoids/plasma blobs. 2D and 3D numerical...
