HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT
Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174
This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…
The Dynamics of the Milky Way: Unveiling the 6D Skeleton of Star Formation in the 2040s
Loredana Prisinzano, Germano G. Sacco, Francesco Damiani +5
The Milky Way (MW) is our unique laboratory to test star formation theories at the level of individual stars, serving as the Rosetta Stone to interpret extragalactic observations.…
Selection and characterisation of the M-dwarf targets in the PLATO Input Catalogue
L. Prisinzano, M. Montalto, G. Piotto +33
The ESA's PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of Stars (PLATO) mission aims to detect planets orbiting around dwarfs and subgiant stars with spectral type F5 or later, including M-…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
A Chandra X-ray study of the young star cluster NGC 6231: low-mass population and initial mass function
F. Damiani, G. Micela, S. Sciortino
NGC6231 is a massive young star cluster, near the center of the Sco OB1 association. While its OB members are well studied, its low-mass population has received little attention. W…
Spectral classification and HR diagram of pre-main sequence stars in NGC6530
L. Prisinzano, G. Micela, S. Sciortino +2
Mechanisms involved in the star formation process and in particular the duration of the different phases of the cloud contraction are not yet fully understood. Photometric data alo…
Star Formation in the Outer Galaxy: Coronal Properties of NGC 1893
M. Caramazza, G. Micela, L. Prisinzano +6
We investigate the X-ray properties of NGC 1893, a young cluster (~ 1-2 Myr) in the outer part of the Galaxy (galactic radius \geq 11 kpc) where we expect differences in the disk e…
GSC 07396-00759 = V4046 Sgr C[D]: a Wide-separation Companion to the Close T Tauri Binary System V4046 Sgr AB
J. H. Kastner, G. G. Sacco, R. Montez +13
We explore the possibility that GSC 07396-00759 (spectral type M1e) is a widely separated (~2.82', or projected separation ~12,350 AU) companion to the "old" (age ~12 Myr) classica…
The Chandra survey of the COSMOS field II: source detection and photometry
S. Puccetti, C. Vignali, N. Cappelluti +15
The Chandra COSMOS Survey (C-COSMOS) is a large, 1.8 Ms, Chandra program, that covers the central contiguous ~0.92 deg^2 of the COSMOS field. C-COSMOS is the result of a complex ti…
XMM-Newton survey of the low-metallicity open cluster NGC 2516
S. Sciortino, G. Micela, F. Damiani +8
We present the first results of an XMM-Newton EPIC survey of NGC 2516, a southern low-metallicity open cluster with an age close to the Pleiades. The attained limiting sensitivity…
