Description
A photometric analysis is conducted of the open cluster NGC 7044, on the basis of UBVR CCD observations of 896 stars in the cluster field. Reddening and metallicity estimates are highly dependent on whether reddening slopes and absorption coefficients vary with spectral type. The color-magnitude diagram obtained is compared with selected sets of isochones, based on evolutionary models computed with and without consideration of convective overshooting from the stellar core during the H and He phases of core burning. Better general agreement is obtained between predicted and observed features of the color-magnitude diagram with overshooting models.

    An ultra-short-period super-Earth with an extremely high density and an outer companion
    We present the discovery and characterization of a new multi-planetary system around the Sun-like star K2-360 (EPIC 201595106). K2-360 was first identified in K2 photometry as the host of an ultra-short-period (USP) planet candidate with a period of 0.88 d. We obtained follow-up transit photometry, confirming the star as the host of the signal

    Counting stars from the integrated spectra of galaxies
    Over the last few decades, evolutionary population synthesis models have powered an unmatched leap forward in our understanding of galaxies. From dating the age of the first galaxies in the Universe to providing detailed measurements of the chemical composition of nearby galaxies, the success of this approach built upon simple stellar population

    Model-based identification of solar coronal mass ejections using deep neural networks
    Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a major driver of space weather and thus can have important negative technological and social impacts. To assess their geoeffectiveness once they are ejected, it is crucial their prompt identification in coronagraph images. In the last decade, deep neural networks (DNN) have experienced enormous improvements in
