    Near-infrared spectroscopic indices for unresolved stellar populations. III. Composite indices definition as age and metallicity tracers and model comparison
    Recent advances in the stellar population studies of unresolved galaxies in the NIR domain demonstrated that it contains several line-strength indices to be...

    Near-infrared spectroscopy of nearby Seyfert galaxies - I. First results
    We present near-infrared 1.5-2.5μm moderate-resolution long-slit spectra of two Seyfert 1 galaxies (NGC 1097 and 1566), three Seyfert 2s (NGC 1386, 4945 and...

    Near-infrared spectroscopy of the circumnuclear star formation regions in M100: evidence for sequential triggering
    We present low-resolution (R~450) K-band spectroscopy for 16 of the 43 circumnuclear star-forming knots in M100 identified by Ryder & Knapen. We compare our...

    Near-infrared/optical counterparts of hotspots in radio galaxies
    We present new high spatial resolution Very Large Telescope (VLT) and Very Large Array (VLA) observations of a sample of nine low-power (P1.4GHz

    Near-quiescent photometry of the X-ray transient J0422+32
    We present I-band photometry of the soft X-ray transient (SXT) J0422+32 taken during a low-brightness state over two weeks in 1993 October. The object had a...

    Nebular and stellar properties of a metal-poor HII galaxy at z= 3.36
    We have characterized the physical properties (electron temperature, density and metallicity) of the ionized gas and the ionizing population (age, metallicity...

    Neutron-capture element abundances in the planetary nebula NGC 5315 from deep optical and near-infrared spectrophotometry★†
    We analyse the chemical composition of the planetary nebula (PN) NGC 5315, through high-resolution (R ∼ 40000) optical spectroscopy with Ultraviolet-Visual...

    New bright optical spectrophotometric standards: A-type stars from the STIS Next Generation Spectral Library
    Exoplanets have sparked interest in extremely high signal-to-noise ratio spectroscopic observations of very bright stars, in a regime where flux calibrators, in...

    New brown dwarfs in Upper Sco using UKIDSS Galactic Cluster Survey science verification data
    We present first results from a deep (J = 18.7), wide-field (6.5deg2) infrared (ZY JHK) survey in the Upper Sco association conducted within the science...
