Measuring Stellar Atmospheric Parameters with ARES+MOOG [PDF]
The technical aspects in the use of an Equivalent Width (EW) method are described for the derivation of spectroscopic stellar parameters with ARES+MOOG. While the science description behind this method can be found in many references, here the goal is to provide a user manual approach for the codes and scripts presented in for the tutorial.

On the dispersion theory of $ππ$ scattering [PDF]
Recent developments in low energy pion physics are reviewed, emphasizing the strength of dispersion theory in this context. As an illustration of the method, I discuss some consequences of the forward dispersion relation obeyed by the isoscalar component of the scattering amplitude.

Fermion mass and the pressure of dense matter [PDF]
We consider a simple toy model to study the effects of finite fermion masses on the pressure of cold and dense matter, with possible applications in the physics of condensates in the core of neutron stars and color superconductivity.

Characterization of the acoustic community of vocal fishes in the Azores
Sounds produced by teleost fishes are an important component of marine soundscapes, making passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) an effective way to map the presence of vocal fishes with a minimal impact on ecosystems.

String/Flux Tube Duality [PDF]
I describe Field/String duality as applied to the response of gauge fields to separated quark and antiquark sources. This is a talk contributed to the conference Quark Confinement and the Hadron Spectrum VII, Ponta Delgada, Azores, 2-7 September 2006.

The 1980, 1997 and 1998 Azores earthquakes and its seismotectonic implications [PDF]
We have studied the focal mechanisms of the 1980, 1997 and 1998 earthquakes in the Azores region from body-wave inversion of digital GDSN (Global Digital Seismograph Network) and broadband data. For the 1980 and 1998 shocks, we have obtained strike– slip

Asteroseismology and Exoplanets: Proceedings of the IVth Azores International Advanced School in Space Sciences [PDF]
This book presents the proceedings of the IVth Azores International Advanced School in Space Sciences entitled "Asteroseismology and Exoplanets: Listening to the Stars and Searching for New Worlds", which took place in Horta, Azores Islands, Portugal in July 2016.

Neutron stars and quark matter [PDF]
Recent observations of neutron star masses close to the maximum predicted by nucleonic equations of state begin to challenge our understanding of dense matter in neutron stars, and constrain the possible presence of quark matter in their deep interiors.

Seismicity along the Western Eurasia- Africa plate boundary [PDF]
extends from the Azores Islands to the Strait of Gibraltar. The interaction between Iberia and Africa results in a complex region located in the western part of the Eurasian-African plate boundary.
