Simulation of the spin evolution of some selected exoplanets and inferences on their climate
Salvatore Camposeo, Francesco De Paolis, Vincenzo Orofino +2
In this work, using the simulator VPLanet, we analyze the spin evolution of some selected exoplanets due to the tidal interaction with their host star. For a rocky planet, two spin…
Timing analysis of a sample of five cataclysmic variable candidates observed by the XMM-Newton satellite
A. A. Nucita, S. M. Lezzi, F. De Paolis +4
Intermediate polars are a class of cataclysmic variables in which a white dwarf accretes material from a companion star. The intermediate polar nature confirmation usually derives…
COSMIC-L: A Photometric Catalog of Observed Stars in the Large MagellanIc Cloud
A. Franco, A. A. Nucita, F. De Paolis. F. Strafella
The Magellanic Clouds are two nearby dwarf irregular galaxies whose study can help us in understanding galaxy and stellar evolution. In particular, the Large Magellanic Cloud, the…
COSMIC-S: a photometric Catalogue of Observed Stars in the Small MagellanIc Cloud
A. Franco, A. A. Nucita, F. De Paolis +1
The Dark Energy Camera (DECam) is a wide-field instrument mounted on the 4m V. Blanco Telescope (CTIO). Its impressive technical characteristics makes it one of the most suitable g…
Measuring Star Formation Rates in the Milky Way from Hi-GAL 70 m Observations
D. Elia, N. J. Evans, J. D. Soler +5
Three methods for computing the total star formation rate of the Milky Way agree well with a reference value of M yr. They are then used to determine t…
