The present state of cosmology is facing a crisis where there is a fundamental disagreement in measurements of the Hubble constant ( $H_{0}$), with significant tension between the early and late Universe methods. Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are important to measuring $H_{0}$ through the astronomical distance ladder. However, there remains potential

Massive stars drive the ionization and mechanical feedback within young star-forming regions. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is an ideal galaxy for studying individual massive stars and quantifying their feedback contribution to the environment. We analyze eight exemplary targets in LMC N11 B from the Hubble UV Legacy Library of Young Stars as

Context. Samples from the asteroid Ryugu provide key information on the initial composition and evolutionary processes of primitive bodies. Aims. This study aims to detect H 2O spectral features associated with inter-layer water in a statistically significant number of Ryugu grains protected from terrestrial contamination. Methods. We analysed

We present seeing-limited (0.8″) near-infrared integral field spectroscopy data of the type-2 quasars, QSO2s, SDSS J135646.10+102609.0 (J1356) and SDSS J143029.89+133912.1 (J1430, the Teacup), both belonging to the Quasar Feedback, QSOFEED, sample. The nuclear K-band spectra (1.95–2.45 μm) of these radio-quiet QSO2s reveal several H 2 emission

Using early data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey, we search for active galactic nuclei (AGN) signatures in 410,757 line-emitting galaxies. By employing the BPT emission-line ratio diagnostic diagram, we identify AGNs in 75,928/296,261 (≈25.6%) high-mass ( 9.5) and 2444/114,496 (≈2.1%) dwarf ( 9.5) galaxies. Of these AGN

Context. The C-19 stellar stream is the most metal-poor stream known to date. While its wth and velocity dispersion indicate a dwarf galaxy origin, its metallicity spread and abundance patterns are more similar to those of globular clusters (GCs). If it is indeed of GC origin, its extremely low metallicity ([Fe/H]=‑3.4, estimated from giant stars)
