Descripción
Following our recent report on the transition to quiescence of the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary XTE J1701-407 (ATel #3604), we continued to monitor the source in X-rays. Further observations were carried out between August 31 and September 20, during which Swift pointed towards the source once every 2-4 days with the XRT operated in the photon counting mode. Initially, we found the 2-10 keV luminosity of XTE J1701-407 to be steadily decreasing, down to Lx~1E33 erg/s on August 31 (assuming a distance towards the source of D=5 kpc; ATel #2814).

    Primitive asteroids in the Main Belt possess one of the most pristine inventories of materials in the Solar System. Main Belt primitive asteroids are particularly interesting due to clear evidence of phyllosilicates, i.e., silicates that have encountered liquid water and undergone chemical alteration. Since asteroids are thought to be likely

    NEOMIR: project statut of ESA's space-based infrared mission for NEO detection and early warning
    To warn about potential asteroid or comet impacts, we must first observe and discover these objects through dedicated NEO surveys. Most current and planned surveys are ground-based and use visible light, but they face limitations like weather dependency, limited sky visibility, difficulty detecting at low galactic latitudes, and inability to
