We observed the transits of six hot Jupiters with the Gran Telescopio de Canarias (GTC). The planets cover a large range of physical parameters such as...

We have photometrically searched the circumstellar habitable zone (about 95 eclipsing binary system CM Draconis for evidence of planetary transits. With 1014...

The Kepler space mission, successfully launched in March 2009, is providing continuous and high-precision photometry of thousands of stars simultaneously. The...

This contribution gives an overview of the ground-based observing efforts organized to collect the auxiliary data mandatory for the calibrations and tests of...

Ground-based observations are a strong tool for asteroseismic studies and even in the era of asteroseismic space missions they continue to play an important...

We present the preliminary results of a detailed study of ground-based photometric and spectroscopic observations dedicated to the β Cephei CoRoT main target HD...
