The thermal dust emission in N158–N159–N160 (LMC) star-forming complex mapped by Spitzer, Herschel and LABOCA. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 431(2), 1596-1617. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt280

Low-metallicity galaxies exhibit different properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) compared to nearby spiral galaxies. Obtaining a resolved inventory of the various gas and dust components of massive star-forming regions and diffuse ISM is necess...

An improved route to the EF fragment of the spongistatins has been developed and employed in a synthesis of spongistatin 2. The C48–C51 diene side chain, which lacks the chlorine substituent present in spongistatin 1, presented some compatibility iss...

The energy deposition and redistribution in hot Jupiter atmospheres is not well understood currently, but is a major factor for their evolution and survival. We present a time dependent radiative transfer model for the atmosphere of WASP-18b which is... Read More about On the heat redistribution of the hot transiting exoplanet WASP-18b.

An extremely high photometric precision in ground-based observations of two transits in the WASP-50 planetary system (2013)
Journal Article

We present photometric observations of two transits in the WASP-50 planetary system, obtained using the ESO New Technology Telescope and the defocused-photometry technique. The rms scatters for the two data sets are 258 and 211 ppm with a cadence of...

Multi-site campaign for transit timing variations of WASP-12 b: possible detection of a long-period signal of planetary origin (2013)
Journal Article

Multi-site campaign for transit timing variations of WASP-12 b: possible detection of a long-period signal of planetary origin. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 551, Article A108. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201220739

Aims. The transiting planet WASP-12 b was identified as a potential target for transit-timing studies because a departure from a linear ephemeris has been reported in the literature. Such deviations could be caused by an additional planet in the syst...

A rapidly spinning supermassive black hole at the centre of NGC?1365. (2013)
Journal Article
(2013). A rapidly spinning supermassive black hole at the centre of NGC?1365. Nature, 449 - 451. https://doi.org/10.1038/nature11938

Broad X-ray emission lines from neutral and partially ionized iron observed in active galaxies have been interpreted as fluorescence produced by the reflection of hard X-rays off the inner edge of an accretion disk. In this model, line broadening and... Read More about A rapidly spinning supermassive black hole at the centre of NGC?1365..
