    Traducción filológica y tradición clásica: Mariner y los Idilios de Teócrito

    La cuestión de la traducción ha preocupado, desde el momento de los primeros encuentros de culturas literarias, a estudiosos de todas las épocas. En nuestros días el interés por la problemática que plantea esta actividad es mayor aún y son numerosos los acercamientos al tema de la traducción desde diversos puntos de vista. Es evidente que no existe un único método de traducción y que las circunstancias que rodean el proceso -geográficas y temporales, pero también sociolingüísticas, semióticas y, en definitiva, culturales- condicionan decisivamente tanto el proceso de traducción como el resultado de éste y su recepción. Son estas circunstancias las que nos ayudan a comprender las distintas formas de trabajar de los traductores a lo largo de la histori

    Library of high and mid-resolution spectra in the CaII H & K, Hα, Hβ, NaI D_1, D_2, and HeI D3 line regions of F, G, K and M field stars

    In this work we present spectroscopic observations centered in the spectral lines most widely used as optical indicators of chromospheric activity (Hα, Hβ, CaII H & K, and HeI D_3) in a sample of F, G, K and M chromospherically inactive stars. The spectra have been obtained with the aim of providing a library of high and mid-resolution spectra to be used in the application of the spectral subtraction technique to obtain the active-chromosphere contribution to these lines in chromospherically active single and binary stars. This library can also be used for spectral classification purposes. A digital version with all the spectra is available via ftp and the World Wide Web (WWW) in both ASCII and FITS formats

    Late-type members of young stellar kinematic groups - I. Single stars

    Get PDF
    This is the first paper of a series aimed at studying the properties of late-type members of young stellar kinematic groups. We concentrate our study on classical young moving groups such as the Local Association (Pleiades moving group, 20-150 Myr), IC 2391 supercluster (35 Myr), Ursa Major group (Sirius supercluster, 300 Myr), and Hyades supercluster (600 Myr), as well as on recently identified groups such as the Castor moving group (200 Myr). In this paper we compile a preliminary list of single late-type possible members of some of these young stellar kinematic groups. Stars are selected from previously established members of stellar kinematic groups based on photometric and kinematic properties as well as from candidates based on other criteria such as their level of chromospheric activity, rotation rate and lithium abundance. Precise measurements of proper motions and parallaxes taken from the Hipparcos Catalogue, as well as from the Tycho-2 Catalogue, and published radial velocity measurements are used to calculate the Galactic space motions (U, V W) and to apply Eggen's kinematic criteria in order to determine the membership of the selected stars to the different groups. Additional criteria using age-dating methods for late-type stars will be applied in forthcoming papers of this series. A further study of the list of stars compiled here could lead to a better understanding of the chromospheric activity and their age evolution, as well as of the star formation history in the solar neighbourhood. In addition, these stars are also potential search targets for direct imaging detection of substellar companions

    Multiwavelength optical observations of chromospherically active binary systems. 1. Simultaneous H alpha, Na I D_1, D_2, and He I D_3 observations

    Get PDF
    This is the first paper of a series aimed at studying the chromosphere of active binary systems using the information provided for several optical spectroscopic features. Simultaneous H_α, Na I D_1, D_2, and He I D_3 spectroscopic observations are reported here for 18 systems. The chromospheric contribution in these Lines have been determined using the spectral subtraction technique. Very broad wings have been found in the subtracted H_α profile of some of the more active stars. These profiles are well matched using a two-components Gaussian fit (narrow and broad) and the broad component could be interpreted as arising from microflaring. Prominence-like extended material have been detected in a near-eclipse H_α observation of the system AR Lac. The excess emission found in the Na I D_1 and D_2 lines by application of the spectral subtraction technique and the behaviour of the H_α line in the corresponding simultaneous observations indicate that the filling-in of the core of these lines is a chromospheric activity indicator. For giant stars of the sample the He I D_3 line has been detected in absorption in the subtracted spectra. An optical flare has been detected in UX Ari and II Peg through the presence of the He I D_3 in emission incoincidence with the enhancement of the H_α emission

    A finite-volume scheme for fractional diffusion on bounded domains

    Get PDF
    We propose a new fractional Laplacian for bounded domains, expressed as a conservation law and thus particularly suited to finite-volume schemes. Our approach permits the direct prescription of no-flux boundary conditions. We first show the well-posedness theory for the fractional heat equation. We also develop a numerical scheme, which correctly captures the action of the fractional Laplacian and its anomalous diffusion effect. We benchmark numerical solutions for the Lévy–Fokker–Planck equation against known analytical solutions. We conclude by numerically exploring properties of these equations with respect to their stationary states and long-time asymptotics

    Ca II H and K and H_α emissions in chromospherically active binary-systems (RS Canum Venaticorum and BY Draconis)

    Get PDF
    We report high-resolution observations of the Ca II H and K and Balmer H_α lines in 53 chromospherically active binary systems including the RS Canum Venaticorum binaries (RS CVn) and BY Draconis (BY Dra) classes. The rotational periods of the sample cover a range from 0.8 to 83.2 days. H and K emission-line surface fluxes have been calculated for all the stars in the sample. In spectra where the H_ε line appears in emission, absolute surface fluxes were also determined. The Ca II line profiles corresponding to different seasons and orbital phases are analyzed in order to determine the contribution of each component and to study the chromospheric activity variations. We have measured the H_α equivalent width of the program stars and the H_α core emission was determined by subtraction of the equivalent width of a presumably inactive star of the same spectral type and luminosity class. Three different types of H_α line profiles have been found: strong emission line, weak emission line with strong superposed absorption profile, and filled-in absorption line profile

    The Wilson-Bappu effect and other CA-II H-Line and K-line parameters relationships in chromospherically active binaries

    Get PDF
    We present measurements of the emission core width W_0 and the wavelength separation of the K_1 dips, W_1, of the Ca II H and K emission lines observed on high-dispersion spectra of 28 chromospherically active binary systems (RS CVn and BY Dra stars) and 18 single active stars. We test the width-luminosity correlations (the Wilson-Bappu (WB) effect, and (W_1, M_V) in these very active stars and analyse the influence of the activity level (I_K3) and the rotational broadening (Vsin i) in these correlations. We have found that for very active stars the emission widths, both W_0 and W_1, are larger than expected from previously accepted width-luminosity relations. The stars with strong emission intensities, I_K3 and large values of Vsin i seem to present larger values of W_0 than resulted from WB relation, the effect of the rotational velocity being the most remarkable. On the contrary, W_1 is strongly influenced by I_K3 but the effect of the rotational broadening is lesser. We also analyse the behaviour of the Ca II H and K line parameters in these very active stars in relation with less active stars and we found that the increase of W_1 and I_K1 With I_K3 presents a flattening for the most active stars which is different for each value of W_0. Finally we also find a Hepsilon width-luminosity correlation in the stars of the sample in which this emission line is present
