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

We present the Rossiter–McLaughlin measurement of the sub-Neptune TOI-1759A b with MAROON-X. A joint analysis with MuSCAT3 photometry and nine additional TESS transits produces a sky-projected obliquity of ∣λ∣ = 4° ± 18°. We also derive a true obliquity of ψ = 24° ± 12° making this planet consistent with full alignment albeit to <1σ. With a period

Context. Providing a detailed picture of the Sagittarius stream offers important constraints on the build-up of the Galactic halo as well as its gravitational potential at large radii. While several attempts have been made to model the structure of the Sagittarius stream, no model has yet been able to match all the features observed for the stream

Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs), icy remnants of planet formation orbiting beyond Neptune, comprise a dynamically and compositionally diverse population of >5000 known members. An extensive body of literature focuses on the dynamical structure of the trans-Neptunian region. Less information is available on TNO compositions due to the difficulty

Aims. Pulsating variable stars are invaluable tracers for reconstructing the star formation history and chemical evolution of their host galaxies. In this work, we explore the variable star population of Leo II, a distant dwarf spheroidal satellite of the Milky Way. Methods. We analyse an extensive dataset of ground-based BVRI time-series

We present the discovery and validation of a super-Earth planet orbiting the M dwarf star TOI-1846 (TIC 198385543). The host star ( $K_{\rm mag} = 9.6$) is located 47 pc away and has a radius of $R_\star = 0.41 \pm 0.01$ $\rm \, R_\odot$, a mass of $M_\star = 0.40 \pm 0.02$ $\rm \, M_\odot$ and an effective temperature of $T_{\rm eff} = 3568 \pm 44
