We present an investigation of a single sunspot observed in the neutral Fe line at 1089.6 nm with the Tenerife Infrared Polarimeter at the Vacuum Tower...
The prototype SONG node, SONG-OT, is currently being installed and tested at Observatory del Teide on Tenerife. SONG will be a global network of 1-m robotic...
Sonochemical Synthesis of Fullerene C60/ Anthracene Diels-Alder Mono and Bisadducts
The sonication of a mixture of C60 fullerene and anthracene in benzene yields the trans-1 bis-adduct C60(anthracene)2 in 52% yield. The bis-adduct is...
SOPHIE velocimetry of Kepler transit candidates. XII. KOI-1257 b: a highly eccentric three-month period transiting exoplanet
In this paper we report a new transiting warm giant planet: KOI-1257 b. It was first detected in photometry as a planet-candidate by the Kepler space telescope...
SOPHISM: An End-to-end Software Instrument Simulator
We present a software simulator for the modeling of astronomical instrumentation, which includes platform effects and software processing. It is an end-to-end...
Source subtraction for the extended Very Small Array and 33-GHz source count estimates
We describe the source subtraction strategy and observations for the extended Very Small Array (VSA), a cosmic microwave background interferometer operating at...
Space and time variations of K I 7699 solar line profile
The temporal and spatial behavior of the K I 7699 line profile is investigated. In particular, the asymmetries of the line profile at several residual...
Space astrometry of the very massive ˜150 M⊙ candidate runaway star VFTS682
How very massive stars form is still an open question in astrophysics. VFTS682 is among the most massive stars known, with an inferred initial mass of ≳150 M_⊙...
