Description
We present the results of a deep CCD-based IZ photometric survey of a ~ 1 deg(2) area in the central region of the Pleiades Galactic open cluster. The magnitude coverage of our survey (from I ~ 17.5 down to 22) allows us to detect substellar candidates with masses between 0.075 and 0.03 Msun. Details of the photometric reduction and selection criteria are given. Finder charts prepared from the I-band images are provided. Based on observations made with the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) and the Jacobus Kaptein Telescope (JKT) operated on the island of La Palma by the Isaac Newton Group at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias; and on observations made with the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) at the same observatory.

    Microlensing brown-dwarf companions in binaries detected during the 2022 and 2023 seasons
    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

    Accurate modeling of the forward-scattering Hanle effect in the chromospheric Ca I 4227 Å line
    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

    TOI-5005 b: A super-Neptune in the savanna near the ridge
    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
