    On The Cooling Tails Of Thermonuclear X-ray Bursts: News From Terzan 5
    The neutron star transient and 11 Hz X-ray pulsar IGR J17480-2446, recently discovered in the globular cluster Terzan 5, showed unprecedented bursting activity during its 2010 October-November outburst. We analyzed all X-ray bursts detected with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer and confirmed their thermonuclear origin, despite the fact that many do

    On the early evolution of Local Group dwarf galaxy types: star formation and supernova feedback
    According to star formation histories (SFHs), Local Group dwarf galaxies can be broadly classified in two types: those forming most of their stars before z = 2 (fast) and those with more extended SFHs (slow). The most precise SFHs are usually derived from deep but not very spatially extended photometric data; this might alter the ratio of old to

    On the electron temperatures in high-metallicity HII regions
    The electron temperatures of high-metallicity [12 + log(O/H) > 8.2] HII regions have been studied. The empirical flux-flux relations which express the nebular-to-auroral [OIII] line ratio Q3,O (as well as the nebular-to-auroral [OII] line ratio Q2,O, and the nebular-to-auroral [NII] line ratio Q2,N) in terms of the nebular R3 and R2 line fluxes in

    On the estimation of galaxy structural parameters: the Sérsic model
    This paper addresses some questions which have arisen from the use of the Sérsic r1/n law in modelling the luminosity profiles of early-type galaxies. The first issue deals with the trend between the half-light radius and the structural parameter n. We show that the correlation between these two parameters is not only real, but also a natural

    On the formation and evolution of the first Be star in a black hole binary MWC 656
    We find that the formation of MWC 656 (the first Be binary containing a black hole) involves a common envelope phase and a supernova explosion. This result supports the idea that a rapidly rotating Be star can emerge out of a common envelope phase, which is very intriguing because this evolutionary stage is thought to be too fast to lead to

    On the generation of the net circular polarization observed in solar faculae
    The net circular polarization observed in solar faculae (Stenflo et al., 1984) follows a law expected from the combination of velocity and magnetic field gradients in the photosphere. To show this, the theoretical curve of growth (net circular polarization produced by a single line versus its absorption coefficient) predicted by this mechanism is
