We present a study aimed at understanding the physical phenomena underlying the formation and evolution of galaxies following a data-driven analysis of...
When nature tries to trick us. An eclipsing eccentric close binary superposed on the central star of the planetary nebula M 3-2
Bipolar planetary nebulae (PNe) are thought to result from binary star interactions and, indeed, tens of binary central stars of PNe have been found, in...
When the horseshoe fits: Characterizing 2023 FY<SUB>3</SUB> with the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias and the Two-meter Twin Telescope
Context. The Arjuna asteroid belt is loosely defined as a diverse group of small asteroids that follow dynamically cold, Earth-like orbits. Most of them are not...
WINGS-SPE II: A catalog of stellar ages and star formation histories, stellar masses and dust extinction values for local clusters galaxies
Context. The WIde-field Nearby Galaxy clusters Survey (wings) is a project whose primary goal is to study the galaxy populations in clusters in the local...
X-ray bubbles in the circumgalactic medium of TNG50 Milky Way- and M31-like galaxies: signposts of supermassive black hole activity
The TNG50 cosmological simulation produces X-ray emitting bubbles, shells, and cavities in the circumgalactic gas above and below the stellar discs of Milky Way...
Magnetized plasma is emerging continually from the solar interior into the atmosphere. Magnetic flux emergence events and their consequences in the solar...
Zeeman effect in sulfur monoxide. A tool to probe magnetic fields in star forming regions
Context. Magnetic fields play a fundamental role in star formation processes and the best method to evaluate their intensity is to measure the Zeeman effect of...
Aims: We attempt to detect starlight reflected from the hot Jupiter orbiting the main-sequence star τ Boo, in order to determine the albedo of the planetary...
