Nightside condensation of iron in an ultra-hot giant exoplanet

David Ehrenreich, +96 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the detection of an asymmetric atmospheric signature in the ultra-hot exoplanet WASP-76b using high-dispersion spectroscopy with a large photon-collecting area.
Journal ArticleDOI

ESPRESSO@VLT -- On-sky performance and first results

Francesco Pepe, +99 more
TL;DR: ESPRESSO as discussed by the authors is a high-resolution spectrograph of ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT) designed for ultra-high radial-velocity precision and extreme spectral fidelity with the aim of performing exoplanet research and fundamental astrophysical experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

DISASTER: a GIS database on hydro-geomorphologic disasters in Portugal

TL;DR: In this paper, a GIS database on disastrous floods and landslides for the period 1865-2010, which is available in http://riskam.ul.pt/disaster/en.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energy efficiency and thermal performance of lightweight steel-framed (LSF) construction: A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the main features of lightweight steel-framed (LSF) construction with cold-formed elements from the point of view of life cycle energy consumption are described and some strategies for reducing thermal bridges and for improving the thermal resistance of LSF envelope elements are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

ESPRESSO high-resolution transmission spectroscopy of WASP-76 b

Hugo M. Tabernero, +108 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the ESPRESSO high-resolution transmission spectroscopic observations of two primary transits of the highly irradiated, ultra-hot Jupiter-sized planet, WASP-76b, were used to detect several key atomic and molecular features of interest that may reveal the atmospheric properties of the planet.
