A new ionization correction scheme for He(+)/H(+) and the determination of the helium abundance in H II regions
A new ionization correction factor (ICF) scheme for He(+) is developed, based on the definition of the radiation softness parameter eta (Vilchez and Pagel, 1988...
A New Measurement of the 6Li / 7Li Ratio in HD 82943
We investigate the presence of possible blends in the spectral region of the Li resonance line at 6708Å in solar-type metal-rich stars using high resolution and...
A New Method for Unveiling Box/Peanut Bulges in Face-On Galaxies
We measured the stellar kinematics of three face-on galaxies with the aim of searching for box/peanut-shaped (B/P) bulges. These observations test and confirm...
A new method to estimate the ages of globular clusters: the case of NGC 3201
We devised a new method to estimate globular cluster absolute ages by adopting the knee of the bending of the lower main-sequence (MS) in the Near-Infrared (NIR...
A new calibration method, applicable to multidetector telescopes, is presented. This method is based on the comparison between experimental data and the ones...
