Extremely low mass white dwarfs are very rare objects likely formed in compact binary systems. We present MMT optical spectroscopy of 42 low-mass white dwarf...
In this paper we describe the design and characterization of the optical system of LSPE/Strip, a coherent polarimeter array that will observe the microwave sky...
The LSPE-Strip pointing reconstruction and Star Tracker
This work is part of a series of papers describing in detail the design and characterization of the LSPE-STRIP, a microwave telescope operating in the Q- and W...
The luminosity function evolution of soft X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei in the RIXOS survey
A sample of 198 soft X-ray-selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) from the ROSAT International X-ray Optical Survey (RIXOS) is used to investigate the X-ray...
The luminosity function of stars in the intermediate age open cluster NGC 7789
We report the results of a CCD investigation of stars in a selected region near the center of the intermediate age galactic cluster NGC 7789. A CM diagram is...
The luminosity function of the cluster Palomar 1—testing a new technique
The luminosity function of the globular cluster Palomar 1 is determined together with its confidence interval by applying an adaptive kernel estimator to data...
The luminosity of cluster galaxies in the Cluster-EAGLE simulations
We computed the luminosity of simulated galaxies of the C-EAGLE project, a suite of 30 high-resolution zoom-in simulations of galaxy clusters based on the EAGLE...
The Luminosity-Size and Mass-Size Relations of Galaxies out to z ~ 3
The luminosity-size and mass-size distributions of galaxies out to z~3 are presented. We use very deep near-infrared images of the Hubble Deep Field-South in...
The Lunar Terrestrial Observatory: Observing the Earth using photometers on the Moon’s surface
The Earth’s albedo is one of the least studied fundamental climate parameters. The albedo is a bi-directional variable, and there is a high degree of anisotropy...
