  • Compositional Characterization of Cliff-Type Trans-Neptunian Objects
    Introduction: Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) harbor materials from the early solar nebula (e.g., Gladman et al. 2008; Tegler et al. 2016). Observations from the NIRSpec instrument onboard the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) included >50 TNOs during Cycle 1 for the large program "Discovering the Compositions of TNOs" (DiSCo-TNOs; #2418; PI: N

  • Composition of asteroid 84 Klio with NIRSpec/JWST
    Primitive C-complex asteroids, primarily located in the main asteroid belt, are commonly associated with carbonaceous chondrites (CCs) due to their low geometric albedo (typically pv<10%) and similar spectral shape [e.g. 1]. The presence of hydrated minerals and organics in CCs attests to the accretion of volatiles by their parent body in the early

  • Chemical abundances and Doppler imaging of the Ap Si/He-wk star HD 100357
    We present the results of time-resolved photometry, abundance analysis, and Doppler imaging of an Ap star, HD 100357. The TESS photometry revealed rotational modulation with a period of 1.6279247 d. Upon inspecting the residuals after removing the rotational period and its harmonics, we found additional frequencies around 15.8054 d $^{-1}$, which

  • Caveats about measuring carbon abundances in stars using the CH band
    Context. Stellar carbon abundances are crucial for tracing the star formation history and predicting the near-infrared emission of galaxies. It is still a complex task to derive accurate carbon abundance estimates for a wide variety of stars because it is hard to measure it based on atomic and molecular lines. It therefore remains challenging to

  • Benchmark brown dwarfs – I. A blue M2 + T5 wide binary and a probable young [M4 + M4] + [T7 + T8] hierarchical quadruple
    Benchmark brown dwarfs in wide binary systems are crucial for characterizing substellar objects and calibrating atmospheric and evolutionary models. However, brown dwarf benchmarks with subsolar metallicity, very cool temperatures, or suitability for dynamical mass measurements are rare, limiting our understanding across the full range of mass, age

  • Azimuthal offsets in spiral arms of nearby galaxies
    Spiral arms play a central role in disc galaxies, but their dynamical nature remains a long-standing open question. Azimuthal offsets between molecular gas and star formation are expected if gas crosses spiral arms, as predicted by quasi-stationary density wave theory. In this work, we measure offsets between CO and Hα peaks in radial bins for 24
