Fast spectroscopy and imaging with the FORS2 HIT mode

open access: yes, 2007
The HIgh-Time resolution (HIT) mode of FORS2 has 3 sub-modes that allow for imaging and spectroscopy over a range of timescales from milliseconds up to seconds. It is the only high time resolution spectroscopy mode available on an 8m class telescope.

Gender inequality in urban British Africa: Evidence from Anglican marriage registers

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the colonial origins and evolution of gender inequality in mission schooling and formal labour force participation across six cities in British colonial Africa, using marriage register data for some 30,000 Anglican brides and grooms well‐positioned to benefit from colonial educational and employment opportunities.

The long-period Galactic Cepheid RS Puppis - II. 3D structure and mass of the nebula from VLT/FORS polarimetry

open access: yes, 2012
The long-period Cepheid RS Pup is surrounded by a large dusty nebula reflecting the light from the central star. Due to the changing luminosity of the central source, light echoes propagate into the nebula.

Unpacking the relationship between co‐creation and brand equity: A multi‐study approach

open access: yesEuropean Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Whilst some studies have shown that co‐creation positively influences brand equity, others have found only marginal or even negative effects, and several failure cases of co‐creation have been reported. To overcome the confusion generated by mixed findings, this paper unpacks the relationship between co‐creation and brand equity, considering ...

On the consistency of magnetic field measurements of Ap stars: lessons learned from the FORS1 archive

open access: yes, 2014
CONTEXT. The ESO archive of FORS1 spectropolarimetric observations may be used to create a homogeneous database of magnetic field measurements. However, no systematic comparison of FORS field measurements to those obtained with other instruments has been

Exploring drivers and costs of partial trans‐Saharan migration in juvenile vultures

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Partial migration occurs when only a subset of individuals within a population undertakes a migratory journey. The decision to migrate can be influenced by intrinsic traits (e.g. sex or physical condition) as well as by extrinsic factors (e.g. social environment or resource availability).

Imaging Multispettrale low-cost con filtri interferenziali

open access: yesArcheomatica, 2015
Multispectral imaging systems are used in art examination in order to map and identify pigments and binders as well as retouches. A monochromatic camera (CCD or InGaAs) is combined with an appropriate wavelength selection system, simple as a set of ...

Discovery of 9 Ly alpha emitters at redshift z~3.1 using narrow-band imaging and VLT spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2000
Narrow-band imaging surveys aimed at detecting the faint emission from the 5007 [O III] line of intracluster planetary nebulae in Virgo also probe high redshift z=3.1 Ly alpha emitters.

Partners Mirror Each Other's Informal Helping Behavior: Evidence From a Longitudinal Study

open access: yesJournal of Marriage and Family, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This paper examines to what extent partners' informal helping behaviors are related and to what extent this partner effect differs by gender. Differences in informal help given to kin and non‐kin are explored. Background Although prior research has suggested that partners influence each other's helping behavior, these mostly cross ...
