Description
Topics discussed include the origin and early development of galaxies; gas and global star formation; galactic nuclei; population, age, and dynamics of the Galaxy; supernovae and their effects; chemical evolution; population synthesis; and galaxy interactions. Papers are presented on dwarf galaxies, the role of magnetic fields in the evolution of galaxies, molecular gas in spiral galaxies, evidence for coherent star-forming processes in the discs of spirals, and active galactic nuclei without black holes. Attention is also given to the populations and evolution of the Galaxy, the white dwarf luminosity function and the age of the Galaxy, supernovae and their effects, chemical evolution in galaxies, and the evolution of He-4 in galaxies. Other papers are on the stellar population synthesis, stellar population synthesis in galaxy nuclei, population synthesis an X-ray properties of passively evolving galaxies, and the evolutionary effects of interaction between galaxies.

    Study of basaltic asteroids through their phase curves
    Introduction Classified as type-V, the basaltic asteroids of the Main Belt (MB), for the most part, are connected to Vesta's dynamic family. However, since the discovery of the V-type asteroid (1459) Magnya in the outer MB, several new asteroids have been found in different regions, including V-types from inner regions not belonging to the Vesta

    The TESS TTV Follow-up Program: Revealing Volatile-Rich Terrestrial Planets Around M Stars
    Models predict that water-rich planets may be common around low-mass stars, but definitive evidence for the existence of water worlds has remained elusive. Recent JWST observations of sub-Neptune sized planets orbiting nearby M dwarfs found atmospheres enriched in CH4, CO2 and H2O, but the enrichment mechanism is debated. To answer this question
