    Hot super-Earths stripped by their host stars

    Simulations predict that hot super-Earth sized exoplanets can have their envelopes stripped by photoevaporation, which would present itself as a lack of these exoplanets. However, this absence in the exoplanet...

    The excitation of solar-like oscillations in a δ Sct star by efficient envelope convection

    Delta Scuti (δ Sct)1 stars are opacity-driven pulsators with masses of 1.5–2.5M, their pulsations resulting from the varying ionization of helium. In less massive stars2 such as the Sun, convection transports ma...

    Asteroseismic modelling of the solar-like star β Hydri

    We present the results of modelling the subgiant star β Hydri using seismic observational constraints. We have computed several grids of stellar evolutionary tracks using the Aarhus STellar Evolution Code (ASTEC,...

    The Extended Atmosphere and Evolution of the RV Tauri Star, R Scuti

    We found molecular bands in absorption and in emission in the infrared spectra of the RV Tau stars, R Sct. This is a unique property among the RV Tau stars, but rather commonly seen in Mira variables. The peri...

    Imaging the Surfaces of Late-Type Stars

    We discuss the prospects for resolving the disks of red-giants and Mira variables with the VLT and the VLTI. We also describe infrared aperture-masking observations with the NTT, from which we have measured an...

    Resolving Distant Galaxies Into Stars

    We describe a project that uses VLT + CONICA to resolve distant galaxies (D ≥ 10 Mpc) into stars, obtaining IR color-magnitude diagrams.
