A gravitational-wave standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant
- B. Abbott, R. Abbott, +1,308 authors M. Serra-Ricart
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 16 October 2017
On 17 August 2017, the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors observed the gravitational-wave event GW170817—a strong signal from the merger of a binary neutron-star system. Less than two seconds after… Expand
Localization and broadband follow-up of the gravitational-wave transient GW150914
- B. Abbott, R. Abbott, +1,514 authors S. Rosswog
- Physics
- 26 February 2016
A gravitational-wave (GW) transient was identified in data recorded by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors on 2015 September 14. The event, initially… Expand
The IAC Morphological Catalog of Northern Galactic Planetary Nebulae
- A. Manchado, M. Guerrero, L. Stanghellini, M. Serra-Ricart
- Physics
- 1996
Planetary Nebulae (PNs) are highly representative of the late stages of intermediate mass stellar evolution. However, there are still many unresolved questions in their evolutionary scheme. Mass loss… Expand
Significant and variable linear polarization during the prompt optical flash of GRB 160625B
- E. Troja, V. Lipunov, +28 authors N. Gehrels
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 27 July 2017
Newly formed black holes of stellar mass launch collimated outflows (jets) of ionized matter that approach the speed of light. These outflows power prompt, brief and intense flashes of γ-rays known… Expand
MASTER Optical Detection of the First LIGO/Virgo Neutron Star Binary Merger GW170817
- V. Lipunov, E. Gorbovskoy, +30 authors M.I.Panchenko
- Physics
- 16 October 2017
Following the discovery of the gravitational-wave source GW170817 by three Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO)/Virgo antennae (Abbott et al., 2017a), the MASTER Global Robotic… Expand
Time Delay in QSO 0957+561 From 1984-1999 Optical Data
- A. Oscoz, D. Alcalde, +6 authors J. Muñoz
- Physics
- 7 February 2001
Photometric optical data of QSO 0957+561 covering the period 1984-1999 are analyzed to discern between the two values of the time delay (417 and 424 days) mostly accepted in the recent literature.… Expand
Support for the Gravitational Lens Interpretation of SBS 0909+532
- A. Oscoz, M. Serra-Ricart, E. Mediavilla, J. Buitrago, L. Goicoechea
- Physics
- 6 November 1997
The system SBS 0909+532A, B is a double consisting of a quasar and a fainter component that was, until now, spectroscopically unresolved. Spectra taken in good seeing conditions (FWHM=1'') with the… Expand
The Rotation Period of C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp)
- J. Licandro, L. Rubio, +11 authors R. West
- Physics
- 10 July 1998
C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) was observed in daylight on 16 days between 1997 April 1 and 1997 April 28, five of which had long time sequences (up to 10 hr of data), using the near infrared CAIN camera on… Expand
Modeling the photometric and dynamical behavior of Super-Schmidt meteors in the Earth's atmosphere
- L. Rubio, L. Rubio, +5 authors M. Serra-Ricart
- Physics
- 1 July 2002
Faint meteors observed with Super-Schmidt cameras are re-examined in order to assess whether their dynamical and photometric behavior can be described by means of the single body theory. Velocities,… Expand

- Medicine
- Science
- 14 October 2005
On 4 July 2005, many observatories around the world and in space observed the collision of Deep Impact with comet 9P/Tempel 1 or its aftermath. This was an unprecedented coordinated observational… Expand
