We report on the confirmation and mass determination of π Men c, the first transiting planet discovered by NASA's TESS space mission. π Men is a naked-eye (V = 5.65 mag), quiet G0 V star that was previously known to host a sub-stellar companion (π Men b) on a longperiod (Porb = 2091 days), eccentric (e = 0.64) orbit. Using TESS time-series

Context. Exoplanets have now been proven to be very common. The number of its detections continues to grow following the development of better instruments and missions. One key step for the understanding of these worlds is their characterization, which mostly depend on their host stars. Aims: We perform a significant update of the Stars With

In a ΛCDM cosmology, galaxy formation is a globally inefficient process: it is often the case that far fewer baryons are observed in galaxy discs than expected from the cosmic baryon fraction. The location of these `missing baryons' is unclear. By fitting halo profiles to the rotation curves of galaxies in the SPARC data set, we measure the

El Grupo Local (LG) es el hogar de m ́as de 100 galaxias conocidas. La gran mayor ́ıa de ellas son galaxias sat ́elites de la V ́ıa L ́actea (VL) o de la galaxia de Andr ́omeda (M31). Entre las galaxias sat ́elites de la VL, la mayor es la Gran Nube de Magallanes (LMC), que es visible a simple vista debido a su proximidad y brillo. Tambi ́en es el

We report the discovery of SDSS J0909+4449, an exceptional system consisting of a quasar at z = 2.788 strongly lensed by a group of galaxies at z ˜ 0.9 into three images separated by up to 14 arcsec based on archival data collected by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey, Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey, the
