Descripción
We present the K-correction for emission lines formed on the irradiated face of the companion stars in X-ray binaries. We compute this K-correction in a general approach as function of the mass ratio and the disc flaring angle. Our results combined with the detection of high energy emission lines arising from the donor star (e. g. Steeghs & Casares 2002 ; Hynes et al. 2003) can provide the most accurate mass determinations for either neutron stars or black holes in persistent Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs). The application of our model to X1822-371 (Munoz-Darias, Casares & Martinez-Pais 2005) strongly suggests the presence of a massive neutron star in this LMXB. Here, we also present the K-correction for the Black Hole binary GX339-4.

    ROSALIA: ROman Sky Analyst for Low surface brightness Imaging & Astronomy
    Diffuse emission in the outskirts of galaxies, such as stellar tidal streams, galaxy stellar halos and intracluster light, provides important constraints on the structure and evolution of the Universe. However, such low surface brightness diffuse emission can be up to thousands of times dimmer (>29 AB mag/[square arcseconds]) than the sky

    A Systematic Search for and Characterization of White Dwarf Binaries Across the H-R Diagram
    White dwarfs (WDs) are the endpoint of evolution for 97% of stars. Most of these stars are in multiple systems, and a significant fraction of those are compact enough to exchange mass, altering the structures and subsequent evolution of both stars. The physical mechanisms that facilitate these mass exchanges include common envelope evolution, Roche

    The molecular gas perspective on the growth and death of H emitters in the Spiderweb protocluster at Alpha z=2.16
    Galaxy clusters at low redshift are dominated by massive quiescent galaxies hosting stellar populations 10 Gyrs old, indicating that they were formed in the early universe when clusters were still in the process of being assembled (i.e., protoclusters). The rapid growth of galaxies within protoclusters is driven by the efficient transformation of
