Optical and near-infrared observations of the GRB 970616 error box [PDF]
, 1999 We report on near-infrared and optical observations of the GRB 970616 error box and of the X-ray sources discovered by ASCA and ROSAT in the region. No optical transient was found either within the IPN band or in the X-ray error boxes, similarly to other

Multiple Cyclotron Lines in the Spectrum of 4U 0115+63 [PDF]
, 2000 We report phase resolved spectroscopy of the transient accreting pulsar, 4U0115+63. For the first time, more than two cylotron resonance scattering features are detected in the spectrum of an X-ray pulsar.

Reanalysis of the FEROS observations of HIP 11952 [PDF]
, 2013 Aims. We reanalyze FEROS observations of the star HIP 11952 to reassess the existence of the proposed planetary system. Methods. The radial velocity of the spectra were measured by cross-correlating the observed spectrum with a synthetic template.

The GAPS Programme with HARPS-N@TNG VI: The Curious Case of TrES-4b [PDF]
, 2015 We revisit the TrES-4 system parameters based on high-precision HARPS-N radial-velocity measurements and new photometric light curves. A combined spectroscopic and photometric analysis allows us to determine a spectroscopic orbit with an amplitude $K=51 ...
