Descripción
The contrast of the photospheric granulation in the centre of the disk at a wavelength of 500 nm has been determined by means of photographs taken during the solar eclipse of May 30th 1984. After restoration, values of 17.3% and 20.4%, using the sum of two lorentzians to define the instrumental profile, and of 11.7% and 14.3%, using the sum of two gaussians, have been obtained. This suggests that the results are quite sensitive to the particular choice which is made of the analytical approximation to the point spread function. The corrected power spectrum does not show significant differences to those of previous works. A comparison between the method for correcting the image degradation which the authors propose with those used by other investigators is also made.

    An ultra-short-period super-Earth with an extremely high density and an outer companion
    We present the discovery and characterization of a new multi-planetary system around the Sun-like star K2-360 (EPIC 201595106). K2-360 was first identified in K2 photometry as the host of an ultra-short-period (USP) planet candidate with a period of 0.88 d. We obtained follow-up transit photometry, confirming the star as the host of the signal

    Neural calibration of imaging Stokes polarimeters
    Current polarimetric calibration techniques derive the instrument modulation matrix by numerically fitting an instrumental model to measurements of a set of calibration Stokes vectors. These techniques are typically limited to an error on the retrieved normalized Stokes Q, U and V parameters, in the $1\times10^{-2}$ to $1\times10^{-3}$ range. This

    Model-based identification of solar coronal mass ejections using deep neural networks
    Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a major driver of space weather and thus can have important negative technological and social impacts. To assess their geoeffectiveness once they are ejected, it is crucial their prompt identification in coronagraph images. In the last decade, deep neural networks (DNN) have experienced enormous improvements in
