Study of Kepler's FGKM stars
While stellar rotation periods P_rot_ may be measured from broad-band photometry, the photometric modulation becomes harder to detect for slower rotators, which could bias... -
Gaia EDR3 view on Galactic globular clusters
We use the data from Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) to study the kinematic properties of Milky Way globular clusters. We measure the mean parallaxes and proper motions (PM)... -
Red Be Stars in the LMC and the SMC
We revisit the subject of Be candidate stars towards the Magellanic Clouds, previously studied by the authors using SPM4 proper motions. We obtain Gaia DR2 parallaxes and proper... -
The Gaia view of the Cepheus flare
We present a new census of candidate pre-main-sequence stars in the Cepheus flare star-forming region, based on Gaia EDR3 parallaxes, proper motions, and colour-magnitude... -
Tidal tails in the open cluster NGC 752
We utilize the robust membership determination algorithm, ML-MOC, on the precise astrometric and deep photometric data from Gaia Early Data Release 3 within a region of radius 5... -
Mon OB4 a new association in Gaia DR2
We use Gaia DR2 data to survey the classic Monoceros OB1 region and look for the existence of a dispersed young population, co-moving with the cloud complex. An analysis of the... -
Updated parameters of 1743 open clusters
In this study, we follow up our recent paper (Monteiro et al., 2020MNRAS.499.1874M) and present a homogeneous sample of fundamental parameters of open clusters in our Galaxy,... -
The Alma catalogue of OB stars - II.
We cross-match the Alma catalogue of OB stars with Gaia DR2 astrometry and photometry as a first step towards producing a clean sample of massive stars in the solar... -
Close white dwarf binaries - Ref. samples
Close white dwarf binaries play an important role across a range of astrophysics, including thermonuclear supernovae, the Galactic low-frequency gravitational wave signal, and... -
Detection of 228 variable stars in NGC 281
We identify 228 periodic variables in the region of young open cluster NGC 281 using time series photometry carried out from 1 m class ARIES telescopes, Nainital. The cluster... -
Membership probabilities of 6 open cluster
Open clusters are central elements of our understanding of the Galactic disc evolution, as an accurate determination of their parameters leads to an unbiased picture of our... -
Gaia DR2 Galactic bulge new star clusters
We report the discovery of 34 new open clusters and candidates as a result of a systematic search carried out in 200 adjacent fields of 1x1 square degrees area projected towards... -
Period-luminosity-metallicity relation of RRLs
This paper presents results from photometric and statistical-parallax analysis of a sample of 850 field RR Lyrae (RRL) variables. The photometric and spectroscopic data for our... -
Giant stars in TESS continuous viewing zones
The NASA Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (NASA-TESS) mission presents a treasure trove for understanding the stars it observes and the Milky Way, in which they reside. We... -
[Fe/H] dependence of the wide-binary fraction
The metallicity dependence of the wide-binary fraction (WBF) IN stellar populations plays a critical role in resolving the open question of wide-binary formation. In this paper,... -
Ultracool dwarfs in ALHAMBRA and COSMOS
Ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) encompass a wide variety of compact stellar-like objects with spectra classified as late-M, L, T, and Y. Most of them have been discovered using... -
Stars in the Sagittarius stream
We assemble a catalogue of candidate Sagittarius stream members with 5D and 6D phase-space information, using astrometric data from Gaia DR2, distances estimated from RR Lyrae... -
2D kinematics of massive stars
The presence of massive stars (MSs) in the region close to the Galactic Centre (GC) poses several questions about their origin. The harsh environment of the GC favours specific... -
Ultracool dwarfs in wide binaries
We present the discovery of 255 binary and 6 multiple system candidates with wide (>5arcsec) separation composed by ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) companions to stars, plus nine... -
RR Lyrae population in the Draco dwarf galaxy
We present a catalogue of 285 RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in the Draco dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy, obtained by combining data from a number of different surveys including the Data...
