Stellar rotation is closely linked to both the age and the magnetic activity of stars. Through gyrochronology, it provides a means to estimate stellar ages and trace the...

We present a rigorous identification of candidates for dormant black holes (BHs) and neutron stars (NSs) in binaries using summary statistics from Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3),...

We present radial-velocity measurements obtained in one of a number of programs underway to search for extrasolar planets with the spectrograph SOPHIE at the 1.93-m telescope of...

M dwarf stars are the dominant stellar population in the Milky Way, and they are important for a wide variety of astrophysical topics. The Gaia mission has delivered a superb...

A high resolution optical spectral atlas for three very low-mass stars are provided, along with a high resolution observation of an atmospheric absorption calibrator. This is...

I present infrared spectroscopy of 37 brown dwarf candidates in the Upper Scorpius (Upper Sco) association, 35 of which are classified as young and cool, making them likely...

Recent observations with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) have revealed 19 nearby M dwarfs showing bright circularly polarised radio emission. One of the possible sources of such...

To date, we have access to enormous inventories of stellar spectra that allow the extraction of atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances essential in stellar studies....

The mass of a star at formation determines its subsequent evolution and demise. Low-mass stars are the most common products of star formation and their long main-sequence...

We have created specialized target lists for radial velocity surveys that are biased toward stars that (1) possess planets and (2) are easiest to observe with current detection...

We present an updated version of the spectroscopic catalogue of white dwarf-main-sequence (WDMS) binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We identify 938 WDMS binaries...

We develop a method to identify the spectroscopic signature of unresolved L-dwarf ultracool companions, which compares the spectra of candidates and their associated control...

We present empirical metallicity-dependent calibrations of effective temperature against colours for dwarfs of luminosity classes IV and V and for giants of luminosity classes...

We report the discovery and characterization of a new M-dwarf binary, with component masses and radii of M_1_=0.244_-0.003_^+0.003^M_{sun}, R_1=0.261_-0.009_^+0.006^R_{sun},...

We present the spectroscopic analysis of a large sample of late-M, L, and T dwarfs from the United Kingdom Deep Infrared Sky Survey. Using the YJHK photometry from the Large...

We have identified 227 new spectroscopic white-dwarf + main-sequence (WDMS) binaries from the ninth data release (DR9) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The SDSS spectra...

The basic stellar atmospheric parameters (effective temperature, surface gravity and global metallicity) were determined simultaneously for a sample of 233 stars, limited in...

We present a spectroscopic survey of a sample of F stars that have not yet been searched for planets. The observations of 187 stars obtained with the Bochum Echelle...

We present the results of a search for infrared-excess (IR-excess) candidates in a comprehensive (29000 stars) magnitude-limited sample of dwarf stars, spanning the spectral...

Using the Position and Proper Motion Extended-L (PPMXL) catalogue, we have used optical and near-infrared colour cuts together with a reduced proper motion cut to find bright M...
