Descripción
M31N 2008-12a, located in the Andromeda galaxy (M31), is the best studied recurrent nova. It presents periodic outbursts with about one year between eruptions. However, the annual eruption date varies from year to year. In order to discover the annual eruption and facilitate the multi-wavelength follow-up, a monitoring campaign with nightly cadence is needed. Perez-Fournon et al. and Reyes-Rodriguez et al. reported the discovery of the 2022 M31N 2008-12a eruption with the Las Cumbres Observatory global telescope network in the framework of a three-month monitoring campaign that included also the IAC80 and Isaac Newton telescopes. Here, we discuss the 2022 light curve based on all reported photometry, as well as ATLAS forced photometry, and compare it with the well-studied 2015 eruption discussed in Darnley et al.

    Massive characterisation of subgiants and red giants with TESS (Kepler and Gaia)
    TESS serves as a formidable tool for investigating stellar variability. Nonetheless, the adaptation of methodologies employed in other space missions, such as Kepler, to deduce long stellar rotation periods or solar-like stellar pulsations has been a challenge. The advent of multiple sectors of data for most stars every two years with the extended

    Measuring stellar long surface rotation periods by combining multi-sector/cycle long-cadence data from TESS
    The evolution of surface magnetic features on stars, such as spots and faculae, produces modulations in light curves. These modulations allow us to measure the surface rotation period, P_rot, of stars from the main sequence (e.g., McQuillan et al. 2014; Santos et al. 2019, 2021) to the red-giant (Ceillier et al. 2017) phase. Nevertheless, the

    The breakdown of current gyrochronology as evidenced by old coeval stars
    Gyrochronology can yield useful ages for field main-sequence stars, a regime where other techniques are problematic. Typically, gyrochronology relations are calibrated using young (2 Gyr) clusters, but the constraints at older ages are scarce, making them potentially inaccurate and imprecise. In order to test the performance of existing relations
