Description
Hereby we present an exploratory study of the surface brightness radial profiles (μ-r profiles hereafter) of massive (M˜>109.5 M&sun;) disk galaxies in the redshift range 0 ˜< z ˜< 1. We use recently acquired images from HST-WFC3 in the H160 band, and archive data from SDSS-DR7, to trace the rest-frame z' band at all redshifts. The comparison of average μ-r profiles, obtained from images with their spatial resolutions equaled, show no significant change in the explored range of redshifts, i. e. in the last ˜8 Gyr of cosmic time. The stellar surface density seems to be comparable, at equal fractions of the effective radius, and there is no evidence for the growth in relevance of bulges. At least not at the simulated resolution, which is 1.5 kpc (fwhm).

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO)
    The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) is a project dedicated to identifying optical counterparts to gravitational-wave detections using a network of dedicated, wide-field telescopes. After almost a decade of design, construction, and commissioning work, the GOTO network is now fully operational with two antipodal sites: La Palma

    Innovative solution for upgrading commercial bearings for use in cryogenic instruments
    Infrared instruments for astronomy require many bearings for motion that must move in cryogenic conditions. There are poor and expensive options for this, and the companies with qualified bearings only supply after a long time. To attend these constrains, the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) started to develop a procedure to upgrade
