Context. Thermal conductivity is one of the important mechanisms of heat transfer in the solar corona. In the limit of strongly magnetized plasma, it is...

We explore whether stellar tidal streams can provide information on the secular, cosmological evolution of the Milky Way's gravitational potential and on the...

The software package CAOS (code for adaptive optics systems) described in this paper is a software ensemble of modules designed for end-to-end simulation of...

Aims: The goal of this work is to scrutinise the surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) calculation methodology. We analysed the SBF derivation procedure...

Measurements of exoplanetary orbital obliquity angles for different classes of planets are an essential tool in testing various planet formation theories...

We present MOLPOP-CEP, a universal line transfer code that allows the exact calculation of multi-level line emission from a slab with variable physical...

The kinematic plane of stars near the Sun has proven an indispensable tool for untangling the complexities of the structure of our Milky Way (MW). With ever...

Aims: Within the framework of site qualification for the future European large telescope E-ELT, a campaign of measurements was carried out for ten nights in...

Context. The TESS and PLATO missions are expected to find vast numbers of new transiting planet candidates. However, only a fraction of these candidates will be...
