Discovery of X-ray emission from the proto-stellar jet (2007)
F. Favata, J. Drake, L Irs (hh, Fabio Favata, G. Micela, ...
Abstract. We have for the rst time detected X-ray emission associated with a proto-stellar jet, on the jet emanating from L1551 IRS5. The IRS5 proto-star is hidden beyond a very large absorbing...
The Monitor project: Searching for occultations in young open clusters (2006)
Aigrain, Suzanne, Hodgkin, Simon, Irwin, Jonathan, Hebb, Leslie, Irwin, Mike, Favata, Fabio, ...
The Monitor project is a photometric monitoring survey of nine young (1-200Myr) clusters in the solar neighbourhood to search for eclipses by very low mass stars and brown dwarfs and for planetary...
Photospheric abundance peculiarities in RS CVn binaries (2006)
Morel, Thierry; U0048260, Micela, Giuseppina, Favata, Fabio
We discuss the results of a LTE abundance study of 14 single-lined RS CVn binaries. Increasingly peculiar abundance ratios are observed for the cooler and more active stars in this sample (this is...
Iron fluorescent line emission from young stellar objects in the Orion Nebula (2005)

The Origin of T Tauri X-ray Emission: New Insights from the Chandra Orion Ultradeep Project (2005)
Preibisch, Thomas, Kim, Yong -Cheol, Favata, Fabio, Feigelson, Eric D., Flaccomio, Ettore, Getman, Konstantin, ...
We use the data of the Chandra Orion Ultradeep Project (COUP) to study the nearly 600 X-ray sources that can be reliably identified with optically well characterized T Tauri stars (TTS) in the Orion...
Stellar coronal astronomy - a review (2003)
Favata, Fabio, Micela, Giuseppina
Coronal astronomy is by now a fairly mature discipline, with a quarter century having gone by since the detection of the first stellar X-ray coronal source (Capella), and having benefitted from a...
Direct determination of quasar redshifts (2001)
De Bruijne, Jos, Reynolds, Alastair, Perryman, Michael, Peacock, Anthony, Favata, Fabio, Rando, Nicola, ...
We present observations of 11 quasars, selected in the range z = 2.2-4.1, obtained with ESA's Superconducting Tunnel Junction (STJ) camera on the WHT. Using a single template quasar spectrum, we show...
Analysis of astronomical data from optical superconducting tunnel junctions (2001)
Reynolds, Alastair P., Perryman, Michael . A. C., Favata, Fabio, Peacock, Anthony
Currently operating optical superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) detectors, developed in ESA, can simultaneously measure the wavelength (delta lambda = 50 nm at 500 nm) and arrival time (to within...
Discovery of X-ray emission from the proto-stellar jet L1551 IRS5 (HH 154) (2001)
Favata, Fabio, Fridlund, C. V. M., Micela, G., Sciortino, S., Kaas, A. A.
We have for the first time detected X-ray emission associated with a proto-stellar jet, on the jet emanating from L1551 IRS5. The IRS5 proto-star is hidden beyond a very large absorbing column...
TTauri Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud: a combined HST and VLT effort (2001)
Romaniello, Martino, Panagia, Nino, Scuderi, Salvatore, Gilmozzi, Roberto, Tolstoy, Eline, Favata, Fabio, ...
The combination of the unprecedented spatial resolution attainable with WFPC2 on board HST and of the large collecting area of the VLT makes it possible to study in detail the low mass pre-Main...
Planet Detection Capabilities of the Eddington Mission (2000)
Deeg, Hans J., Horne, Keith, Favata, Fabio, Team, Eddington Science
Eddington is a space mission for extrasolar planet finding and for asteroseismic observations. It has been selected by ESA as an F2/F3 reserve mission with a potential implementation in 2008-13. Here...
The corona of the dMe flare star AD Leo (1999)
Favata, Fabio, Micela, G., Reale, F.
We have studied the X-ray emission (both the quiescent component and the flares) of the dM3e star AD Leo, analyzing the Einstein IPC, ROSAT PSPC and ASCA SIS observations. Using a consistent method...
