Continuous Wide-Field Optical Monitoring for Very Early-Phase Transient Discovery
Massimo Della Valle, Maria Teresa Botticella, Enrico Cappellaro +40
The study of transient phenomena in a multimessenger context is expected to remain a major pillar of astrophysical discovery in the decades ahead. Supernovae, Kilonovae, Black-Hole…
FAST-SBF: an automatic procedure for the measurement of Surface Brightness Fluctuations for large sky surveys
Gabriele Riccio, Michele Cantiello, Rebecca Habas +9
The Surface Brightness Fluctuation method is one of the most reliable and efficient ways of measuring distances to galaxies within 100 Mpc. While recent implementations have increa…
The CosmoVerse White Paper: Addressing observational tensions in cosmology with systematics and fundamental physics
Eleonora Di Valentino, Jackson Levi Said, Adam Riess +533
The standard model of cosmology has provided a good phenomenological description of a wide range of observations both at astrophysical and cosmological scales for several decades.…
The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…
Signatures of anti-social mass-loss in the ordinary Type II SN 2024bch -- A non-interacting supernova with early high-ionisation features
Leonardo Tartaglia, Giorgio Valerin, Andrea Pastorello +9
In this paper we analyse the spectro-photometric properties of the Type II supernova 2024bch, exploded in NGC 3206 at a distance of . Its early spectra are characte…
Spectroscopic identification of r-process nucleosynthesis in a double neutron star merger
E. Pian, P. D'Avanzo, S. Benetti +81
The merger of two neutron stars is predicted to give rise to three major detectable phenomena: a short burst of gamma-rays, a gravitational wave signal, and a transient optical/nea…
The unpolarized macronova associated with the gravitational wave event GW170817
S. Covino, K. Wiersema, Y. Z. Fan +37
The merger of two dense stellar remnants including at least one neutron star (NS) is predicted to produce gravitational waves (GWs) and short duration gamma ray bursts (GRBs). In t…
On the impact of Helium abundance on the Cepheid Period-Luminosity and Wesenheit relations and the Distance Ladder
R. Carini, E. Brocato, G. Raimondo +1
This work analyses the effect of the Helium content on synthetic Period-Luminosity Relations (PLRs) and Period-Wesenheit Relations (PWRs) of Cepheids and the systematic uncertainti…
Solar analogues in open clusters: The case of M67
K. Biazzo, L. Pasquini, P. Bonifacio +2
Solar analogues are fundamental targets for a better understanding of our Sun and our Solar System. Usually, this research is limited to field stars, which offer several advantages…
Disentangling age and metallicity in distant unresolved stellar systems
M. Cantiello, E. Brocato, G. Raimondo
We present some results of an observational and theoretical study on unresolved stellar systems based on the Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) technique. It is shown that SBF m…
On the observational properties of He-burning stars: some clues on the tilt of the HB in metal rich clusters
G. Raimondo, V. Castellani, S. Cassisi +2
We investigate the predicted Color-Magnitude distribution of metal-rich Horizontal Branch (HB) stars, discussing selected theoretical models computed under various assumptions abou…
