The Gaia-ESO Survey : Probes of the inner disk abundance gradient
2016
The nature of the metallicity gradient inside the solar circle (R_GC < 8 kpc) is poorly understood, but studies of Cepheids and a small sample of open clusters suggest that it steepens in the inner disk. We investigate the metallicity gradient of the inner disk using a sample of inner disk open clusters that is three times larger than has previously been studied in the literature to better characterize the gradient in this part of the disk. We used the Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) [Fe/H] values and stellar parameters for stars in 12 open clusters in the inner disk from GES-UVES data. Cluster mean [Fe/H] values were determined based on a membership analysis for each cluster. Where necessary, dis…
Gaia-ESO Survey: Global properties of clusters Trumpler 14 and 16 in the Carina nebula
2017
Aims: We present the first extensive spectroscopic study of the global population in star clusters Trumpler 16, Trumpler 14, and Collinder 232 in the Carina nebula, using data from the Gaia-ESO Survey, down to solar-mass stars. Methods: In addition to the standard homogeneous survey data reduction, a special processing was applied here because of the bright nebulosity surrounding Carina stars. Results: We find about 400 good candidate members ranging from OB types down to slightly subsolar masses. About 100 heavily reddened early-type Carina members found here were previously unrecognized or poorly classified, including two candidate O stars and several candidate Herbig Ae/Be stars. Their l…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Structural and dynamical properties of the young cluster Chamaeleon i
2017
Investigating the physical mechanisms driving the dynamical evolution of young star clusters is fundamental to our understanding of the star formation process and the properties of the Galactic field stars. The young (~2 Myr) and partially embedded cluster Chamaeleon I is one of the closest laboratories for the study of the early stages of star cluster dynamics in a low-density environment. The aim of this work is to study the structural and kinematical properties of this cluster combining parameters from the high-resolution spectroscopic observations of the Gaia-ESO Survey with data from the literature. Our main result is the evidence of a large discrepancy between the velocity dispersion …
The Gaia-ESO Survey: evidence of atomic diffusion in M67?
2018
Investigating the chemical homogeneity of stars born from the same molecular cloud at virtually the same time is very important for our understanding of the chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium and with it the chemical evolution of the Galaxy. One major cause of inhomogeneities in the abundances of open clusters is stellar evolution of the cluster members. In this work, we investigate variations in the surface chemical composition of member stars of the old open clusterM67 as a possible consequence of atomic diffusion effects taking place during the main-sequence phase. The abundances used are obtained from high-resolution UVES/FLAMES spectra within the framework of the Gaia-ESO S…
All-sky search in early O3 LIGO data for continuous gravitational-wave signals from unknown neutron stars in binary systems
2021
Rapidly spinning neutron stars are promising sources of continuous gravitational waves. Detecting such a signal would allow probing of the physical properties of matter under extreme conditions. A significant fraction of the known pulsar population belongs to binary systems. Searching for unknown neutron stars in binary systems requires specialized algorithms to address unknown orbital frequency modulations. We present a search for continuous gravitational waves emitted by neutron stars in binary systems in early data from the third observing run of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors using the semicoherent, GPU-accelerated, binaryskyhough pipeline. The search analyzes the most s…
Dynamics of boson stars and fermion-boson stars: a numerical-relativity panorama
2022
Los albores de la astronomía de ondas gravitacionales, actualmente liderada por la Colaboración LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA, abren un nuevo canal para inspeccionar la verdadera naturaleza de los objetos compactos oscuros. Los miembros más convincentes de esta categoría son los agujeros negros, de los que se cree ampliamente que están bien descritos por la métrica de Kerr cerca del equilibrio. Se han propuesto varias posibilidades teóricas más exóticas, denominadas imitadores de agujeros negros, ya que sus propiedades y dinámica se parecen en ciertos aspectos a las de los agujeros negros. Entre esos objetos compactos oscuros alternativos, las estrellas bosónicas, descritas por un campo escalar o vector…

Time-domain effective-one-body gravitational waveforms for coalescing compact binaries with nonprecessing spins, tides and self-spin effects
2018
We present TEOBResumS, a new effective-one-body (EOB) waveform model for nonprecessing (spin-aligned) and tidally interacting compact binaries.Spin-orbit and spin-spin effects are blended together by making use of the concept of centrifugal EOB radius. The point-mass sector through merger and ringdown is informed by numerical relativity (NR) simulations of binary black holes (BBH) computed with the SpEC and BAM codes. An improved, NR-based phenomenological description of the postmerger waveform is developed.The tidal sector of TEOBResumS describes the dynamics of neutron star binaries up to merger and incorporates a resummed attractive potential motivated by recent advances in the post-Newt…
Możliwości rozwoju przedsiębiorstw świadczących osobom starszym usługi zdrowotne i opiekuńcze w poszczególnych województwach w Polsce
2018
Postępujący proces starzenia się polskiego społeczeństwa wpływa na zwiększające się zapotrzebowanie na usługi zdrowotne i opiekuńcze. Aby wykazać, w których regionach kraju istnieją największe możliwości rozwoju prywatnej inicjatywy w zakresie świadczenia usług zdrowotnych i opiekuńczych, opracowano diagnozę stopnia zaspokojenia tych potrzeb osób starszych (65+) w poszczególnych województwach w Polsce w 2015 r. Wykorzystując syntetyczną miarę rozwoju (SMR) [Panek, 2009], wykazano, że najmniejsze możliwości rozwoju prywatnych przedsiębiorstw występują w województwie małopolskim, w dalszej kolejności podkarpackim i lubelskim. Najwięcej niepublicznych placówek powinno powstawać z kolei w wojew…
