  • A study of extragalactic planetary nebulae populations based on spectroscopy. I. Data compilation and first findings
    We compile published spectroscopic data and [O III] magnitudes of almost 500 extragalactic planetary nebulae (PNe) in 13 galaxies of various masses and morphological types. This is the first paper of a series that aims to analyse the PN populations and their progenitors in these galaxies. Although the samples are not complete or homogeneous, we

  • A quantitative demonstration that stellar feedback locally regulates galaxy growth
    We have applied stellar population synthesis to 500-pc-sized regions in a sample of 102 galaxy discs observed with the MUSE spectrograph. We derived the star formation history and analyse specifically the 'recent' ( $20\,\rm {Myr}$ ) and 'past' ( $570\,\rm {Myr}$ ) age bins. Using a star formation self-regulator model, we can derive local mass

  • A giant planet candidate transiting a white dwarf
    Astronomers have discovered thousands of planets outside the Solar System 1, most of which orbit stars that will eventually evolve into red giants and then into white dwarfs. During the red giant phase, any close-orbiting planets will be engulfed by the star 2, but more distant planets can survive this phase and remain in orbit around the white

  • A comprehensive study of the WASP-74 planetary system
    In this work, we present new transit observations of the hot Jupiter WASP-74 b using the high-resolution spectrograph HARPS-N and the multi-color simultaneous imager MuSCAT2. The new data allow us to refine the orbital properties of the planet, the physical parameters of the host star, and reveal some properties about the planet's atmosphere using

  • A common explanation of the Hubble tension and anomalous cold spots in the CMB
    The standard cosmological paradigm narrates a reassuring story of a universe currently dominated by an enigmatic dark energy component. Disquietingly, its universal explaining power has recently been challenged by, above all, the ∼4σ tension in the values of the Hubble constant. Another, less studied anomaly is the repeated observation of

  • X-ray spectral and timing evolution of MAXI J1727-203 with NICER
    We present a detailed X-ray spectral and variability study of the full 2018 outburst of MAXI J1727-203 using NICER observations. The outburst lasted approximately four months. Spectral modelling in the 0.3-10 keV band shows the presence of both a soft thermal and a hard Comptonised component. The analysis of these components shows that MAXI J1727
