Published in 2018 at "Astronomy and Astrophysics"

DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201730655

Abstract: Context. Multiple stellar systems are unique laboratories for astrophysics. Analysis of their orbital dynamics, if well characterized from their observations, may reveal invaluable information about the physical properties of the participating stars. Unfortunately, there are… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staa3186

Abstract: The Cepheid Leavitt Law (LL), also known as the Period-Luminosity relation, is a crucial tool for assembling the cosmic distance ladder. By combining data from the OGLE-IV catalogue with mid-infrared photometry from the Spitzer Space… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stab303

Abstract: The characterization of multiplicity of high-mass stars is of fundamental importance to understand their evolution, the diversity of observed core-collapse supernovae and the formation of gravitational wave progenitor systems. Despite that, until recently, one of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stx1047

Abstract: We present a proper motion investigation of a sample of Be star candidates towards the Magellanic Clouds, which has resulted in the identification of separate populations, in the Galactic foreground and in the Magellanic background.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stx328

Abstract: We present C and O abundances in the Magellanic Clouds derived from deep spectra of HII regions. The data have been taken with the Ultraviolet-Visual Echelle Spectrograph at the 8.2-m VLT. The sample comprises 5… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz1255

Abstract: The properties of carbon stars in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) and their total dust production rates are predicted by fitting their spectral energy distributions (SED) over pre-computed grids of spectra reprocessed by dust. The grids… read more here.
