We present the discovery of the variable optical counterpart to PSR J2055 $+$1545, a redback millisecond pulsar, and the first radial velocity curve of its companion star. The multiband optical light curves of this system show a 0.4- $0.6 \ \mathrm{mag}$ amplitude modulation with a single peak per orbit and variable colours, suggesting that the

Context. The recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi (RS Oph) underwent a thermonuclear eruption in August 2021. In this event, RS Oph was detected by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.), the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC), and the first Large-Sized Telescope (LST-1) of the future Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) at

Context. Low-surface-brightness galaxies (LSBGs) are important for understanding galaxy evolution and cosmological models. Nevertheless, the physical properties of these objects remain unknown, as even the detection of LSBGs can be challenging. Upcoming large-scale surveys are expected to uncover a large number of LSBGs, which will require accurate

We present a simulation-based cosmological analysis using a combination of Gaussian and non-Gaussian statistics of the weak lensing mass (convergence) maps from the first three years of the Dark Energy Survey. We implement the following: (1) second and third moments; (2) wavelet phase harmonics; (3) the scattering transform. Our analysis is fully

We study the stellar mass assembly of galaxies via the stellar mass function (SMF) and the coevolution with dark matter halos via abundance matching in the largest redshift range to date, 0.2 < z < 12. We used the 0.53 deg 2 imaged by JWST from the COSMOS-Web survey, in combination with ancillary imaging in over 30 photometric bands, to select

Aims. We aim to constrain the amplitude of the linear spectrum of density fluctuations (σ 8), the matter density parameter (Ω m), the Hubble constant (H 0), Γ = Ω ch, and S 8 from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS DR7) by studying the abundance of large voids in the large-scale structure of galaxies. Methods. Voids are identified as
