... Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Interferometric studies of the mass-loss process from cool evolved stars . ... Observing with ESO Telescopes . ... Cool evolved stars of different inital masses and thus luminosities loose considerable amounts of processed material and dust into the interstellar medium. ... However, the detailed mass-loss process is surprisingly little understood for most of these sources. ... Return to list of thesis topics . ...

... A tutorial on multispectral imaging of paintings using the Mona Lisa as a case study . ... Conclusions: In this article, we have presented a tutorial description of the multispectral acquisition of images from a signal processing point of view. ... I wonder if there?s literature in astronomy matching this tutorial from which we may expand and improve current astronomical photometry processes by adopting strategies developed by more populated signal/image processing engineers and statisticians. ...

... We study this mechanism throughout the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Aims: We aim to quantify the importance of the [C II] cooling line and the photoelectric heating process of various environments in the LMC and to investigate which parameters control the extent of photoelectric heating. ... We correlate the photoelectric heating efficiency and the emission from various dust constituents and study the variations as a function of HЮБ emission, dust temperatures, and the total infrared luminosity. ...

... Consequently, it is inappropriate to expand and in ordinary spherical harmonics. The proper expansion expresses both and simultaneously in terms of a particular order of generalized spherical harmonics. ... Generalized spherical harmonics start at , and for each , . ... Generalized spherical harmonics obey a sum rule analogous to a familiar one for ordinary spherical harmonics, but it includes an explicit phase factor which depends on the orientation of the two lines of sight. ...

The discovery is the first direct evidence that brown dwarfs, intermediate in mass between stars and planets, are produced by a scaled-down version of the same process that produces stars. ... Based on this discovery, we conclude that the formation of brown dwarfs is a scaled-down version of the process that forms larger stars, Morata said. ...

Amanda Karakas One of the most important research fields in astrophysics is the study of the origin of the elements. ... Asymptotic Giant Blanch (AGB) Stars: For low and intermediate-mass stars (with initial masses between about 0.8 to 8 solar masses) the most important nucleosynthesis occurs when stars evolve off the main sequence to the giant branches. ... This indicates that these stars obtained their unusual abundances via mass transfer from a previous red giant star, that has long evolved away. ...

High resolution observations at different heights in the solar atmosphere have emphasized that there is no such thing as a "quiet" Sun (e.g. Schrijver et al., ... This, and the temporal coincidence of other signatures, supports the idea that microflares are indeed just miniature flares, but that one needs a very high resolution in order to observe them (Cauzzi et al., 2003, in preparation) . ...
