Aims. Building on previous works to construct a homogeneous sample of brown dwarfs in binary systems, we investigate microlensing events detected by the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) survey during the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Methods. Given the difficulty in distinguishing brown-dwarf events from those produced by binary lenses with

Context. Measurable linear scattering polarization signals have been predicted and detected at the solar disk center in the cores of chromospheric lines. These forward-scattering polarization signals, which are of high interest for magnetic field diagnostics, have always been modeled either under the assumption of complete frequency redistribution

Context. The Neptunian desert and savanna have recently been found to be separated by a ridge, an overdensity of planets in the period range of ≃3–5 days. These features are thought to be shaped by dynamical and atmospheric processes. However, their roles are not yet well understood. Aims. Our aim was to confirm and characterize the super-Neptune
