Aims: Star formation rate (SFR) inferences are based on the so-called constant SFR approximation, where synthesis models are required to provide a calibration...

Context. The concentration-virial mass (c-M) relation is a fundamental scaling relation within the standard cold dark matter (ΛCDM) framework well established...

Context. The Euclid spacecraft has been launched and will carry out a deep survey benefiting the discovery and characterisation of ultracool dwarfs (UCDs)...

The well-known bimodal distribution of Milky Way disk stars in the [α/Fe]–metallicity plane is often used to define thick and thin disks. In external edge-on...

Context. Accurate star formation histories (SFHs) of galaxies are fundamental for understanding the build-up of their stellar content. However, the most...

We report on the detection of X-ray polarisation in the black-hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8−1613 during its dim hard spectral state by the Imaging X-ray...

Using combined asteroseismic and spectroscopic observations of 418 red-giant stars close to the Galactic disc plane (6 kpc RGal ≲ 13 kpc, | ZGal| 0.3 kpc), we...

Context. Several clusters of red supergiants have been discovered in a small region of the Milky Way close to the base of the Scutum-Crux Arm and the tip of the...

Extinction due to intergalactic grey dust has been proposed as an alternative to accelerated expansion to account for the dimming of SnIa fluxes beyond z ≃ 0.5...
