  • The First Detection of Abundant Phosphine in a Brown Dwarf Atmosphere
    Phosphorus is an essential element for biological systems, but its synthesis and dispersion over the history of the Milky Way has defied galactic evolution models. The molecular hydride form of phosphorus, phosphine (PH 3), should be abundant in the atmospheres of low-temperature brown dwarfs and gas giant exoplanets, as it is in Jupiter and Saturn

  • The eccentricity distribution of warm sub-Saturns in TESS
    We present the eccentricity distribution of warm sub-Saturns (4–8 $R_{\rm{\oplus }}$, 8–200 d periods) as derived from an analysis of transit light curves from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission. We use the 'photoeccentric' effect to constrain the eccentricities of 76 planets, comprising 60 and 16 from single and

  • Systematic Reanalysis of KMTNet Microlensing Events. II. Two New Planets in Giant-source Events
    In this work, we continue to apply the updated KMTNet tender-love care photometric pipeline to historical microlensing events. We apply the pipeline to a subsample of events from the KMTNet database, which we refer to as the giant source sample. Leveraging the improved photometric data, we conduct a systematic search for anomalies within this

  • Small-scale dynamic phenomena associated with interacting fan-spine topologies: Quiet-Sun Ellerman bombs, UV brightenings, and chromospheric inverted-Y-shaped jets
    Context. Quiet-Sun Ellerman bombs (QSEBs) are small-scale magnetic reconnection events in the lower solar atmosphere. Sometimes, they exhibit transition region counterparts, known as ultraviolet (UV) brightenings. Magnetic field extrapolations suggest that QSEBs can occur at various locations of a fan-spine topology, with UV brightening occurring

  • Revisiting the Li Abundances of Stars with and without Detected Planets from High-resolution Spectroscopy
    Whether the presence of planets affects the lithium (Li) abundance of their host stars is still an open question. To investigate the difference in the Li abundance between planet-host stars (HSs) and isolated stars (ISs) with no detected planets, we analyze a large sample of stars with temperatures ranging from 4600 to 6600 K and metallicity

  • Rendezvous in CAVITY: Kinematics and gas properties of an isolated dwarf-dwarf merging pair in a cosmic void region
    Context. Galaxy mergers are pivotal events in the evolutionary history of galaxies, with their impact believed to be particularly significant in dwarf galaxies due to their low masses. However, these events remain largely underexplored, especially in pristine environments such as voids. Aims. In this work, we report the serendipitous identification
