Description
Changes in the Earth s climate depend most basically on changes in the Sun s output the Earth s reflectance and greenhouse gasses Using SoHO helioseismic data a meaningful lower limit is found on solar irradiance that implies the historical Sun can t be dimmer than the present Sun Further the global earthshine photometric data from BBSO are used and connected to cloud data to determine variations in the net sunlight reaching Earth These suggest a significant decadal variation in the net sunlight reaching Earth Spectroscopic earthshine data from Palomar and NASA s IRTF tell us about the evolution of global greenhouse gasses

    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 TESS TTV Follow-up Program: Revealing Volatile-Rich Terrestrial Planets Around M Stars
    Models predict that water-rich planets may be common around low-mass stars, but definitive evidence for the existence of water worlds has remained elusive. Recent JWST observations of sub-Neptune sized planets orbiting nearby M dwarfs found atmospheres enriched in CH4, CO2 and H2O, but the enrichment mechanism is debated. To answer this question

    The instrumentation plan of the 10.4m GTC telescope
    The 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) was designed to be a versatile telescope, able to serve a wide scientific community. To this aim, various focal stations have been equipped, including a Cassegrain, two Nasmyth foci, and four folded-Cassegrain stations. This allows an ambitious instrumentation plan to be developed. We present the latest
