  • WALLABY pre-pilot survey: two dark clouds in the vicinity of NGC 1395
    We present the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) WALLABY pre-pilot observations of two 'dark' H I sources (with H I masses of a few times 10 8 $\rm {M}_\odot$ and no known stellar counterpart) that reside within 363 kpc of NGC 1395, the most massive early-type galaxy in the Eridanus group of galaxies. We investigate whether these

  • Variable Stars in Local Group Galaxies. VI. The Isolated Dwarfs VV 124 and KKr 25
    We present the discovery of variable stars in two isolated dwarf galaxies in the outskirts of the Local Group, VV 124 and KKr 25, using observations with the Hubble Space Telescope. VV 124 hosts stellar populations with a wide range of ages (>10 Gyr until the present) and therefore we find all types of classical pulsators. In VV 124, we detect a

  • Uncovering fossils of the distant Milky Way with UNIONS: NGC 5466 and its stellar stream
    We examine the spatial clustering of blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars from the u-band of the Canada-France Imaging Survey (CFIS, a component of the Ultraviolet Near-Infrared Optical Northern Survey, or UNIONS). All major groupings of stars are associated with previously known satellites, and among these is NGC 5466, a distant (16 kpc) globular

  • Two Bright M Dwarfs Hosting Ultra-Short-Period Super-Earths with Earth-like Compositions
    We present observations of two bright M dwarfs (TOI-1634 and TOI-1685: J = 9.5-9.6) hosting ultra-short-period (USP) planets identified by the TESS mission. The two stars are similar in temperature, mass, and radius (T eff ≍ 3500 K, M ⋆ ≍ 0.45-0.46 M ⊙, and R ⋆ ≍ 0.45-0.46 R ⊙), and the planets are both super-Earth size (1.25 R ⊕ < R p < 2.0 R ⊕)

  • TOI-1749: an M dwarf with a Trio of Planets including a Near-resonant Pair
    We report the discovery of one super-Earth- (TOI-1749b) and two sub-Neptune-sized planets (TOI-1749c and TOI-1749d) transiting an early M dwarf at a distance of 100 pc, which were first identified as planetary candidates using data from the TESS photometric survey. We have followed up this system from the ground by means of multiband transit

  • The UV-brightest Lyman continuum emitting star-forming galaxy
    We report the discovery of J0121+0025, an extremely luminous and young star-forming galaxy (M UV = -24.11, log[$L_{\rm Ly \alpha } / \rm erg~s^{-1}] = 43.8$) at z = 3.244 showing copious Lyman continuum (LyC) leakage ($f_{\rm esc, abs} \approx 40{{\ \rm per\ cent}}$).
