CIRBS: a satellite to measure the spectrum and the anisotropy of the cosmic background radiation.
During 1981 - 82, the European Space Agency oversaw an intensive design study for a satellite to observe the submillimetre spectrum and the millimetre...
The Canarias InfraRed Camera Experiment (CIRCE) is a near-infrared (1-2.5 μm) instrument for the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) 10.4 m telescope. CIRCE has an...
Circumgalactic gas absorption in extremely metal-poor dwarf dalaxies
Accretion of metal-poor gas via cold accretion flows has been recently proposed as a means to trigger/sustain star formation in extremely metal-poor dwarf...
Mrk 273 and Mrk 231 are ultra-luminous IR galaxies which show signs of merger activity. Their radio continuum, HI and OH maser emission has been imaged on...
Circumnuclear Regions and their Barred Host Galaxies
In this paper we present first results from an observational study of the connection between the global parameters of barred galaxies and the appearance of...
Circumnuclear regions of active and non-active barred galaxies
New near-infrared (NIR) observations of galaxies with circumnuclear starbursts and of Seyfert galaxies have shown both the importance of high-resolution imaging...
