No surviving evolved companions of the progenitor of SN1006.
Type-Ia supernovae are thought to occur when a white dwarf made of carbon and oxygen accretes sufficient mass to trigger a thermonuclear explosion. The...
Non-detection of magnetic fields in the central stars of the planetary nebulae NGC 1360 and LSS 1362.
A large fraction of planetary nebulae (about 80%) are bipolar or elliptical rather than spherically symmetric. Modern theories invoke magnetic fields, among...
Non-grey dimming events of KIC 8462852 from GTC spectrophotometry
We report ground-based spectrophotometry of KIC 8462852, during its first dimming events since the end of the Kepler mission. The dimmings show a clear colour...
El Superordenador "La Palma" produce sus primeros resultados científicos. Tras procesar datos del Sol captados por el satélite japonés Hinode y compararlos con...
Se ha conseguido explicar la física de los chorros de rayos X observados recientemente con el satélite Hinode mediante la combinación de análisis de datos...
OBSERVATIONAL TESTS OF THE PROCESSES OF NUCLEOSYNTHESIS IN THE UNIVERSE.
The sample of metal rich stars with and without planets has been extended in 2007 and the stellar parameters and metallicities have been obtained. The first...
We tested the theoretical prediction that the straightest dust lanes in bars are found in strongly barred galaxies, or more specifically, that the degree of...
On the magnetic nature of quiet-Sun chromospheric grains
CaII Kgrains, i.e., intermittent, short-lived (about 1 minute), periodic (2-4 minutes), pointlike chromospheric brightenings, are considered to be the...
On the origin of stars with and without planets. Tc trends and clues to Galactic evolution.
We explore a sample of 148 solar-like stars to search for a possible correlation between the slopes of the abundance trends versus condensation temperature...
