    Archaeoastronomy and Conflict: On the Orientation of Prehistoric Funerary Monuments in Western Sahara
    A variety of Prehistoric dry-stone monuments are ubiquitous in Western Sahara, a region delimited by the boundaries of the former Spanish colony. With either burial or ritual functions, these monuments are spread throughout the Sahara Desert creating sacred landscapes and housing the memory of millennia of occupation. Previous research has explored

    Absence of nuclear polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon emission from a compact starburst: The case of the type-2 quasar Mrk 477
    Mrk 477 is the closest type-2 quasar, at a distance of 163 Mpc. This makes it an ideal laboratory for studying the interplay between nuclear activity and star formation with a great level of detail and signal-to-noise. In this Letter we present new mid-infrared (mid-IR) imaging and spectroscopic data with an angular resolution of 0.4″ (∼300 pc)

    A targeted search for Main Belt Comets
    Main Belt Comets (MBCs) exhibit sublimation-driven activity while occupying asteroid-like orbits in the Main Asteroid Belt. MBCs and candidates show stronger clustering of their longitudes of perihelion around 15° than other objects from the Outer Main Belt (OMB). This potential property of MBCs could facilitate the discovery of new candidates by

    A Rapid Response Experiment carried out by the EU NEOROCKS project
    NEOROCKS (Near-Earth Object Rapid Observation, Characterization and Key Simulations) is an European project, funded by the Horizon 2020 UE program. Its aim is to increase our knowledge of the NEO physical characterization through observations and data dissemination. NEOROCKS is an international consortium, involving Italy, France, UK, Czech

    A Multi-Wavelength Study of Magnetic Activity in Praesepe and Hyades
    Hyades and Praesepe are the oldest (≈700 Myr old) open clusters within 250 pc, and thus the oldest easily accessible ensembles of low-mass stars with a definitive age. This makes them indispensable laboratories for studying the relationship between stellar rotation and magnetic activity in a single-aged population to better understand the evolution

    A giant umbrella-like stellar stream around the tidal ring galaxy NGC 922
    Context. Tidal ring galaxies (TRGs) are rarely observed in the local universe due to their intrinsically transient nature. The tidal ring structures are the result of strong interactions between gas-rich stellar disks and smaller galactic systems, and do not last longer than ∼500 Myr. Therefore, these are perfect scenarios in which to look for the
