Descripción
Results are presented on a non-LTE analysis of high-resolution Cassegrain echelle CCD spectra of the four most luminous stars in the NGC 346 cluster in the SMC, obtained with the ESO 3.6-m telescope, making it possible to estimate the age of the NGC 346 cluster and to trace its evolution. The results yield the effective temperatures, gravities, helium abundances, luminosities, and an estimate of ZAMS and present masses. It is shown that the observed stellar parameters are consistent with a cluster age of 2.6 + or - 0.5 Myr.

    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

    CEERS Key Paper. IX. Identifying Galaxy Mergers in CEERS NIRCam Images Using Random Forests and Convolutional Neural Networks
    A crucial yet challenging task in galaxy evolution studies is the identification of distant merging galaxies, a task that suffers from a variety of issues ranging from telescope sensitivities and limitations to the inherently chaotic morphologies of young galaxies. In this paper, we use random forests and convolutional neural networks to identify

    Distance estimation of gamma-ray-emitting BL Lac objects from imaging observations
    Aims. The direct redshift determination of BL Lac objects is highly challenging as the emission in the optical and near-infrared bands is largely dominated by the non-thermal emission from the relativistic jet, which points very close to our line of sight. Therefore, the optical spectra of BL Lac objects often show no spectral lines from the host
