Measurements of [Fe/H] and radial velocity are presented for 89 RR Lyrae (RRL) candidates within 6kpc of the Sun. After the removal of two suspected non-RRLs, these stars were...

The gigahertz peaked spectrum (GPS) sources, compact steep spectrum (CSS) radio sources, and high-frequency peaker (HFP) radio sources are thought to be young radio active...

The past two decades have seen dramatic progress in our knowledge of the population of young stars of age <200Myr that lie within 150pc of the Sun. These nearby, young stars,...

We investigated 12 unclassified B[e] stars or candidates, 8 from the Galaxy, 2 from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), and 2 from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Based on the...

We study the spatially resolved star formation history (SFH) and molecular gas distribution of 58 nearby galaxies, using integral field spectroscopy from the CALIFA survey and...

Radial-velocity observations made on more than a thousand nights are presented for the type star of the R Coronae Borealis (RCB) class. There are four principal sources: the...

We have undertaken a comprehensive search for both Lyman alpha emitters (LAEs) and Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) in the Survey for High-z Absorption Red and Dead Sources (SHARDS)...

We present the results of our automatic search for proximate damped Ly{alpha} absorption (PDLA) systems in the quasar spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 12....

Deep narrow-band surveys have revealed a large population of faint Ly{alpha} emitters (LAEs) in the distant Universe, but relatively little is known about the most luminous...

We use the LAMOST spectra of member stars in Pleiades, M34, Praesepe, and Hyades to study how chromospheric activity varies as a function of mass and rotation at different age....

We present and explore deep narrow- and medium-band data obtained with the Subaru and the Isaac Newton Telescopes in the ~2deg^2^ COSMOS field. We use these data as an extremely...

It is widely believed that the cool gas clouds traced by MgII absorption, within a velocity offset of 5000km/s relative to the background quasar are mostly associated with the...

We present spectroscopic follow-up of candidate luminous Ly{alpha} emitters (LAEs) at z=5.7-6.6 in the SA22 field with VLT/X-SHOOTER. We confirm two new luminous LAEs at z=5.676...

We investigated the connection between the mid-infrared (MIR) and optical spectral characteristics in a sample of 82 Type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs), observed with Infrared...

We derive the statistical properties of neutral gas at redshifts 0.11<z<1.65 from ultraviolet (UV) measurements of quasar Ly{alpha} absorption lines corresponding to 369...

We present nebular emission associated with 198 strong Mg II absorbers at 0.35<=z<=1.1 in the fibre spectra of quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Measured [OII]...

Broad absorption lines (BALs) found in a significant fraction of quasar spectra identify high-velocity outflows that might be present in all quasars and could be a major factor...

We investigate broad absorption line (BAL) disappearance and emergence using a 470 BAL-quasar sample over <=0.10-5.25 rest-frame years with at least three spectroscopic...

We conducted a 12-month monitoring campaign of 33 T Tauri stars (TTS) in Taurus. Our goal was to monitor objects that possess a disc but have a weak H{alpha} line, a common...

We propose a method to substantially increase the flexibility and power of template fitting-based photometric redshifts by transforming a large number of galaxy spectral...
