We present radial velocity measurements of a sample of M5V-M9V stars from our Red-Optical Planet Survey, ROPS, operating at 0.65-1.025 micron. Radial velocities for 15 stars, with r.m.s. precision down to 2.5 m/s over a week long time scale…
We present a comprehensive study of the massive binary system HM1~8, based on multi-epoch high resolution spectroscopy, $V$-band photometry and archival X-ray data. Spectra from the OWN Survey, a high resolution optical monitoring of…
Moderate-resolution, near-infrared spectra between 0.8 and 5.2 microns were obtained for 12 late-type (K0-M3) disk-bearing members of the ~5 Myr old Upper Scorpius OB association using SpeX on the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility. For most…
We present high-resolution optical spectra of 15 objects near or below the sub-stellar limit in the Upper Scorpius and $\rho$ Ophiuchus star-forming regions. These spectra, obtained with the HIRES instrument on the Keck I telescope, are…
We present mass and radius derivations for a sample of very young, mid- to late M, low-mass stellar and substellar objects in Upper Sco and Taurus. In a previous paper, we determined effective temperatures and surface gravities for these…
We present time-resolved spectra of the double-degenerate binary star, GP Com. The spectra confirm the presence and period (46.5 min) of the `S'-wave feature found by Nather, Robinson and Stover. GP Com is erratically variable at X-ray and…
We present the first subarcsecond-resolution images at multiple mid-IR wavelengths of the thermally-emitting dust around the A0 star HD 32297. Our observations with T-ReCS at Gemini South reveal a nearly edge-on resolved disk at both 11.7…
The emission of FU Orionis objects in outburst has been identified as arising in rapidly accreting protoplanetary disks, based on a number of observational properties. A fundamental test of the accretion disk scenario is that the…
We have obtained sub-arcsec mid-IR images of a sample of debris disks within 100 pc. For our sample of nineteen A-type debris disk candidates chosen for their IR excess, we have resolved, for the first time, five sources plus the previously…
We present the first observations of the HD92945 debris disk obtained with JWST, targeting this nearby K0V star located at 21.54 pc from the Sun. High-contrast coronagraphic imaging was performed using JWST/NIRCam in the F200W and F444W…
We present high resolution (R=80,000) spectroscopy of [NeII] emission from two young stars, GM Aur and AA Tau, which have moderate to high inclinations. The emission from both sources appears centered near the stellar velocity and is…
(Abridged) Studies of debris discs have shown that most systems are analogous to the EKB. In this study we aim to determine how many IRAS 25um excesses towards A stars are real, and investigate where the dust lies. We observe with TIMMI2,…
We present spectra obtained with the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias telescope of 13 Galactic HII regions, most of them of very low ionisation degree. The objects are located along the Galactic disc, with R_G from 5.7 to 16.1 kpc. We…
In order to understand the evolutionary status of the anomalous supergiant UUHer, the prototype of the class of variable supergiants located at high galactic latitudes, we obtained several high-resolution spectra of this star, with the 6m…
We report spatially resolved spectroscopy of both components of the low-mass pre-main-sequence binary GV Tau. High resolution spectroscopy in the K- and L-bands is used to characterize the stellar properties of the binary and to explore the…
As a continuation of a previous work, in which we found strong evidence of massive molecular outflows towards a massive star forming site, we present a new study of this region based on very high angular resolution observations with the aim…
We obtain the NaI 8183,8195 absorption line radial velocity curves for the polars ST LMi and MR Ser, from which we find the semi-amplitudes to be K_abs=329=+/-6 kms-1 and K_abs=289+/-9 kms-1 respectively. We find that for both systems the…
We present near-infrared spectra of the excess continuum emission from the innermost regions of classical T Tauri disks. In almost all cases, the shape of the excess is consistent with that of a single-temperature blackbody with T ~ 1400 K,…
Linares et al. (2016) obtained quasi-simultaneous g', r' and i-band light curves and an absorption line radial velocity curve of the secondary star in the redback system 3FGL J0212.1+5320. The light curves showed two maxima and minima…
