(2015-10-27)
Article
Accés obert© 2015 The Authors. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society. We present narrow-band optical and near-IR imaging and optical long-slit spectroscopic observations of Hu 1-2, a Galactic ... -
Hunting for open clusters in Gaia EDR3: 628 new open clusters found with OCfinder
(EDP Sciences, 2022-05)
Article
Accés obertContext. The improvements in the precision of the published data in Gaia EDR3 with respect to Gaia DR2, particularly for parallaxes and proper motions, offer the opportunity to increase the number of known open clusters ... -
Indirect dark matter searches with neutrinos from the Galactic Centre region with the ANTARES and KM3NeT telescopes
(arXiv, 2021)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertAn anomalous flux of neutrinos produced in hypothetical annihilations or decays of dark matter inside a source would produce a signal observable with neutrino telescopes. As suggested by observations, a conspicuous amount ... -
Is the metallicity of their host galaxies a good measure of the metallicity of Type Ia supernovae?
(2011-06)
Article
Accés obertThe efficient use of Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) for cosmological studies requires knowledge of any parameter that can affect their luminosity in either systematic or statistical ways. Observational samples of SNIa commonly ... -
Mass-loss and composition of wind ejecta in type I X-ray bursts
(EDP Sciences, 2023-10-17)
Article
Accés obertContext. X-Ray bursts (XRBs) are powerful thermonuclear events on the surface of accreting neutron stars (NSs) where nucleosynthesis of intermediate-mass elements occurs. The high surface gravity of an NS prevents the ... -
Primordial black holes capture by stars and induced collapse to low-mass stellar black holes
(Oxford University Press, 2022-10-04)
Article
Accés obertPrimordial black holes in the asteroid-mass window, which might constitute all the dark matter, can be captured by stars when they traverse them at low enough velocity. After being placed on a bound orbit during star ... -
Rings and spirals in barred galaxies III. Further comparisons and links to observations
(2010)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialIn a series of papers, we propose a theory to explain the formation and properties of rings and spirals in barred galaxies. The building blocks of these structures are orbits guided by the manifolds emanating from the ... -
Short-timescale X-ray spectral variability in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783
(EDP Sciences, 2022-03-01)
Article
Accés obertAims. We report on the X-ray time-resolved spectral analysis of XMM-Newton observations of NGC 3783. Our main goal is to detect transient features in the Fe K line complex in order to study the dynamics of the innermost ... -
Supermassive black hole winds in X-rays: SUBWAYS: I. Ultra-fast outflows in quasars beyond the local Universe
(EDP Sciences, 2023-02-01)
Article
Accés obertWe present a new X-ray spectroscopic study of 22 luminous (2 × 1045 ¿ Lbol/erg s-1 ¿ 2 × 1046) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at intermediate redshifts (0.1 ¿ z ¿ 0.4), as part of the SUpermassive Black hole Winds in the ... -
Supermassive black hole winds in X-rays: SUBWAYS: II. HST UV spectroscopy of winds at intermediate redshifts
(EDP Sciences, 2023-02-01)
Article
Accés obertWe present a UV spectroscopic study of ionized outflows in 21 active galactic nuclei (AGN), observed with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The targets of the Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays (SUBWAYS) sample were ... -
Tails and bridges in the parabolic restricted three-body problem
(2017-01-01)
Article
Accés obertAfter a close encounter of two galaxies, bridges and tails can be seen between or around them. A bridge would be a spiral arm between a galaxy and its companion, whereas a tail would correspond to a long and curving set ... -
The lively accretion disc in NGC 2992-II. The 2019/2021 X-ray monitoring campaigns
(Oxford University Press, 2022-08-01)
Article
Accés obertWe report on the short- and long-term X-ray properties of the bright nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2992, which was extensively observed with Swift, XMM–Newton, and NuSTAR. Swift targeted the source more than 100 times between ... -
The lively accretion disk in NGC 2992. III. Tentative evidence of rapid ultrafast outflow variability
(Institute of Physics (IOP), 2023-06-01)
Article
Accés obertWe report on the 2019 XMM-Newton+NuSTAR monitoring campaign of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 2992, observed at one of its highest flux levels in the X-rays. The time-averaged spectra of the two XMM-Newton orbits show ultrafast ... -
The XMM-Newton/2dF survey - II. The nature of X-ray-faint optically bright X-ray sources
(Oxford University Press, 2004-03-21)
Article
Accés obertIn this paper we investigate the properties of low X-ray-to-optical flux ratio sources detected in a wide area (2.5deg^2) shallow (f(0.5-8keV)~10e-14cgs) XMM-Newton survey. We find a total of 26 sources (5% of the total ... -
