Gamma-ray binaries are systems that comprise a young, massive star and a compact object that can be either a young pulsar or a black hole. They emit radiation from radio up to tens of TeV and show flux ...

One of the most intriguing features of the stellar velocity distribution in the solar neighbourhood is the existence of moving groups. At present, the origin of these kinematic structures is far from ...

The understanding of the origin and evolution of the Milky Way is one of the primary goals of the Gaia mission (ESA, launch autumn 2013). In order to study and analyse fully the Gaia data it will be ...

The high energy astrophysics, specifically the gamma-ray astrophysics, studies the processes that cannot be caused by hot matter but by other mechanisms colled non thermaland processes, which involve ...

Gamma-ray binaries are systems that comprise a compact object orbiting a companion star and display the maximum of the non-thermal Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) in gamma rays. Currently we know ...

High-mass binary systems involve extreme environments that produce non-thermal emission from radio to gamma rays. Only three types of these systems are known to emit persistent gamma-ray emission: ...

In this Thesis, we show how the properties of dark matter halos can be directly derived from the proper filtering of the primordial density field through the use of the CUSP formalism (ConflUent System ...
Moldón Vara, Francisco Javier (Date of defense: 2012-07-05)
Gamma-ray binaries are extreme systems that produce non-thermal emission from radio to very-high-energy (above TeV) gamma rays, with the energy output in the spectral energy distribution (SED) dominated ...
