    Discovery and analysis of a ULX nebula in NGC 3521
    We present Very Large Telescope/X-shooter and Chandra X-ray observatory/ACIS observations of the ULX [SST2011] J110545.62 + 000016.2 in the galaxy NGC 3521. The...

    Discovery and characterization of detached M dwarf eclipsing binaries in the WFCAM Transit Survey
    We report the discovery of 16 detached M dwarf eclipsing binaries with J 16 mag and provide a detailed characterization of three of them, using high-precision...

    Discovery and characterization of five new eclipsing AM CVn systems
    AM CVn systems are ultra-compact, hydrogen-depleted, and helium-rich, accreting binaries with degenerate or semidegenerate donors. We report the discovery of...

    Discovery of a high-z protocluster with tunable filters: the case of 6C0140+326 at z= 4.4
    We present the first results obtained using a tunable narrow-band filter in the search for high-z protoclusters. Using the recently commissioned red tunable...

    Discovery of a new Y dwarf: WISE J030449.03-270508.3
    We present a new Y dwarf, WISE J030449.03-270508.3, confirmed from a candidate sample designed to pick out low-temperature objects from the Wide-field Infrared...

    Discovery of a pre-cataclysmic binary with unusual chromaticity of the eclipsed white dwarf by the GPX survey
    We report the discovery of a relatively bright eclipsing binary system, which consists of a white dwarf (WD) and a main-sequence K7 star with clear signs of...

    Discovery of a red ultra-diffuse galaxy in a nearby void based on its globular cluster luminosity function
    Distance determinations of extremely low-surface-brightness galaxies are expensive in terms of spectroscopic time. Because of this, their distances are often...

    Discovery of a T dwarf + white dwarf binary system
    We present the discovery of the first T dwarf + white dwarf binary system LSPM 1459+0857 AB, confirmed through common proper motion and spectroscopy. The white...

    Discovery of a young low-mass brown dwarf transiting a fast-rotating F-type star by the Galactic Plane eXoplanet (GPX) survey
    We announce the discovery of GPX-1 b, a transiting brown dwarf with a mass of 19.7 ± 1.6 M Jup and a radius of 1.47 ± 0.10 R Jup, the first substellar object...
