  • Searching for R-process-enhanced Stars in the LAMOST Survey. II. Two New r-II Stars in the Milky Way Disk
    R-process-enhanced (RPE) stars are rare and typically metal-poor ([Fe/H] < ‑1.0), primarily found in the Milky Way halo system and dwarf galaxies. This study reports the discovery of two relatively bright, highly RPE stars ([Eu/Fe] > +0.70) located in the Milky Way disk, with [Fe/H] of ‑0.34 and ‑0.80, respectively. These two stars are selected

  • Revisiting the globular clusters of NGC 1052-DF2
    The ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG) NGC 1052-DF2 has captured the interest of astronomers ever since the low velocity dispersion measured from ten globular clusters (GCs) suggested a low dark matter fraction. Also, its GC system was found to be unusually bright, with a GC luminosity function peak at least one magnitude brighter than expected for a

  • Retrieving day- and nightside atmospheric properties of the ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109b: Detection of Fe and CO emission lines and evidence for inefficient heat transport
    The ultra-hot Jupiter (UHJ) TOI-2109b marks the lower edge of the equilibrium temperature gap between 3500 and 4500 K, an unexplored thermal regime that separates KELT-9b, the hottest planet yet discovered, from all other currently known gas giants. To study the thermochemical structure of TOI-2109b's atmosphere, we obtained high-resolution

  • Red giant evolutionary status determination: The complete Kepler catalog
    Context. Evolved cool stars have three distinct evolutionary status: shell-hydrogen burning (RGB), core-helium and shell-hydrogen burning (RC), and double-shell burning (AGB). Asteroseismology can distinguish between the RC and the other status, but distinguishing RGB and AGB has been difficult seismically and spectroscopically. The precise

  • Recovering coherent flow structures in active regions using machine learning
    Analysing high-resolution solar atmospheric observations requires robust techniques to recover plasma flow features across different scales, especially in active regions. Current methodologies often fall short in capturing subgranular-scale flows, and there is limited research on the errors introduced by velocity estimation techniques and analysing

  • Quiet Sun Ellerman bombs as a possible proxy for reconnection-driven spicules
    Context. Spicules are elongated, jet-like structures that populate the solar chromosphere and are rooted in the lower solar atmosphere. In recent years, high-resolution observations and advanced numerical simulations have provided insights into their properties, structures, and dynamics. However, the formation mechanism of spicules, particularly
