Euclid: The convective-transition gap of 47 Tuc

M. Libralato, M. Griggio, R. Gerasimov +140

We report the first detection of the `convective-transition gap' (also known as `M-dwarf gap') in the globular cluster 47 Tuc (NGC 104) thanks to Euclid data. This feature, linked…

Unveiling the nature of HE 0107-5240

E. Caffau, M. Steffen, P. Molaro +27

The vast majority of the most iron-poor stars in the Galaxy exhibit a strong carbon enhancement, with C/H ratios only about two orders of magnitude below solar. This unusual chemic…

Stellar-activity analysis of the nearby M dwarf GJ 526. Multi-dimensional Gaussian-process modelling of RV, FWHM and S-index

A. K. Stefanov, J. I. González Hernández, A. Suárez Mascareño +17

M dwarfs are the most abundant stars in the Galaxy, and their low masses make them natural favourites for exoplanet radial-velocity (RV) searches. Nevertheless, these stars often d…

Euclid: Quick Data Release (Q1) -- Ultracool dwarfs in the Euclid Deep Fields

A. Mohandasan, R. L. Smart, C. Reylé +180

Ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) encompass the lowest-mass stars and brown dwarfs at the substellar boundary. These intrinsically faint objects are challenging to detect, but the wide cover…

The physical properties of T Pyx as measured by MUSE I. The geometrical distribution of the ejecta and the distance to the remnant

L. Izzo, L. Pasquini, E. Aydi +8

T Pyx is one of the most enigmatic recurrent novae, and it has been proposed as a potential Galactic type-Ia supernova progenitor. Using spatially-resolved data obtained with MUSE,…

Ultracool dwarfs candidates based on six years of the Dark Energy Survey data

M. dal Ponte, B. Santiago, A. Carnero Rosell +57

We present a sample of 19,583 ultracool dwarf candidates brighter than z selected from the Dark Energy Survey DR2 coadd data matched to VHS DR6, VIKING DR5 and AllWISE co…

Accretion and Outflows in Young Stars with CUBES

J. M. Alcalá, G. Cupani, C. J. Evans +2

The science case on studies of accretion and outflows in low-mass (1.5 ) young stellar objects (YSOs) with the new CUBES instrument is presented. We show the need for…

Detection of Be II in the Small Magellanic Cloud

Luca Izzo, Paolo Molaro, Gabriele Cescutti +8

We analyse high resolution spectra of two classical novae that exploded in the Small Magellanic Cloud. Be II resonance transitions are detected in both ASASSN-19qv and ASASSN-2…

7Be in the outburst of the ONe nova V6595 Sgr

P. Molaro, L. Izzo, V. D'Odorico +7

We report the search for 7Be isotope in the outbursts of the classical nova V6595 Sgr by means of high resolution UVES observations taken at the ESO VLT in April 2021, about two we…

Young giants of intermediate mass Evidence of rotation and mixing

Linda Lombardo, Patrick François, Piercarlo Bonifacio +7

In the search of a sample of metal-poor bright giants using Str{ö}mgren photometry, we serendipitously found a sample of 26 young (ages younger than 1 Gyr) metal-rich giants, some…

Barium lines in high-quality spectra of two metal-poor giants in the Galactic halo

G. Cescutti, C. Morossi, M. Franchini +9

Context. Theoretical results showed the possibility that neutron capture elements were produced in the early Universe by two different sources: a frequent s-process source hosted b…
