Descripción
We report the first quiescent detection of KV UMa, the optical counterpart of XTEJ1118 + 480, in the near-infrared. The observed magnitudes and colours are consistent with a K7-M0V star, at the distance of 1.4 +/- 0.2 kpc. The light curve shows strong orbital modulation with possible contamination from a superhump detected in the quiescent optical light curves.

    WEAVE First Light Observations: Origin and Dynamics of the Shock Front in Stephan's Quintet
    We present a detailed study of the large-scale shock front in Stephan's Quintet, a by-product of past and ongoing interactions. Using integral-field spectroscopy from the new William Herschel Telescope Enhanced Area Velocity Explorer (WEAVE), recent 144 MHz observations from the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey, and archival data from the Very Large

    A giant planet transiting a 3-Myr protostar with a misaligned disk
    Astronomers have found more than a dozen planets transiting stars that are 10–40 million years old 1, but younger transiting planets have remained elusive. The lack of such discoveries may be because planets have not fully formed at this age or because our view is blocked by the protoplanetary disk. However, we now know that many outer disks are

    Coronal and chromospheric activity of Teegarden's star
    Teegarden's star is a late-type M-dwarf planet host, typically showing only rather low levels of activity. In this paper we present an extensive characterisation of this activity at photospheric, chromospheric, and coronal levels. We specifically investigated TESS observations of Teegarden's star, which showed two very large flares with an
