We report the discovery of a planet in the microlensing event OGLE-2018-BLG-1269 with a planet-host mass ratio q ∼ 6 × 10 -4, i.e., 0.6 times smaller than the Jupiter/Sun mass ratio. Combined with the Gaia parallax and proper motion, a strong one-dimensional constraint on the microlens parallax vector allows us to significantly reduce the

We study the potential of Lyman β and the O I 1027 and 1028 Å spectral lines to help in understanding the properties of the chromosphere and transition region (TR). The oxygen transitions are located in the wing of Lyman β, which is a candidate spectral line for the solar missions Solar Orbiter/Spectral Imaging of the Coronal Environment and Solar

The mass, origin, and evolutionary stage of the binary system LB-1 have been intensely debated, following the claim that it hosts an ∼70M ☉ black hole, in stark contrast with the expectations for Galactic remnants. We conducted a high-resolution, phase-resolved spectroscopic study of its Paschen lines, using the Calar Alto 3.5 m telescope. We find

Context. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is observing bright known planet-host stars across almost the entire sky. These stars have been subject to extensive ground-based observations, providing a large number of radial velocity measurements. Aims: The objective of this work is to use the new TESS photometric observations to

We present the final Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV) quasar catalog from Data Release 16 of the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS). This catalog comprises the largest selection of spectroscopically confirmed quasars to date. The full catalog includes two subcatalogs (the current versions are DR16Q_v4 and DR16Q_Superset
