Comparing land- and skyscapes in the three main manorial-conquered lands of the Canary Islands

Maria Florencia Muratore, Alejandro Gangui, Juan Antonio Belmonte +1

This work is a study of the relationship between astronomy and landscape focused on the orientation of Christian churches of the three main Manorial (Señorío) Islands of the Canary…

On the orientation of historic Christian churches of Fuerteventura: conciliating tradition, winds and topography

Maria Florencia Muratore, Alejandro Gangui, Maitane Urrutia-Aparicio +2

We present the results of an analysis of the precise spatial orientation of colonial Christian churches located in the Canary Island of Fuerteventura (Spain). Our sample consists o…

Archaeoastronomy and the orientation of churches in the Jesuit missions of north-western New Spain

Maria Florencia Muratore, Adrian Di Paolo, Alejandro Gangui

We present an extensive archaeoastronomical study of the orientations of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Jesuit churches in the lands of the historic viceroyalty of New Spain.…

La orientación de las iglesias coloniales de Fuerteventura

Maria Florencia Muratore, Alejandro Gangui

We use standard tools of Archaeoastronomy to approach the study of orientations, possibly astronomical, of a group of colonial Christian churches. We present preliminary results of…

La orientación de las iglesias jesuíticas en América: resultados preliminares

Adrian Di Paolo, Maria Florencia Muratore, Alejandro Gangui

We study the Jesuit mission churches in America, which for almost two centuries were the most representative constructions in the process of Christian evangelisation on the contine…

Archaeoastronomical study of Christian churches in Fuerteventura

Maria Florencia Muratore, Alejandro Gangui

We present an archaeoastronomical study of the orientations of the colonial Christian churches on the island of Fuerteventura, in the Canary Islands, Spain, mostly built from the p…

Evidence of the Evolved Nature of the B[e] Star MWC 137

M. F. Muratore, M. Kraus, M. E. Oksala +4

The evolutionary phase of B[e] stars is difficult to establish due to the uncertainties in their fundamental parameters. For instance, possible classifications for the Galactic B[e…

Probing the ejecta of evolved massive stars in transition: A VLT/SINFONI K-band survey

M. E. Oksala, M. Kraus, L. S. Cidale +2

Massive evolved stars in transition phases, such as Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs), B[e] Supergiants (B[e]SGs), and Yellow Hypergiants (YHGs), are not well understood, and yet cruc…

Unveiling the structure and kinematics of B[e] stars' disks from FEROS and CRIRES spectra

M. F. Muratore, W. J. de Wit, M. Kraus +5

We are investigating the circumstellar material for a sample of B[e] stars using high spectral resolution data taken in the optical and near-infrared regions with ESO/FEROS and ESO…

The sudden appearance of CO emission in LHA 115-S 65

M. E. Oksala, M. Kraus, M. L. Arias +4

Molecular emission has been detected in several Magellanic Cloud B[e] supergiants. In this Letter, we report on the detection of CO band head emission in the B[e] supergiant LHA 11…

A new observational tracer for high-density disc-like structures around B[e] supergiants

A. Aret, M. Kraus, M. F. Muratore +1

The disc formation mechanism of B[e] supergiants is one of the puzzling phenomena in massive star evolution. Rapid stellar rotation seems to play an important role for the non-sphe…
