We identify stellar tidal debris from the ω Centauri (ω Cen) system among field stars in the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) survey via chemical tagging using a neural network trained on APOGEE observations of the ω Cen core. We find a total of 463 ω Cen debris candidates have a probability P > 0.8 of sharing common

Context. Despite predictions from planetary population synthesis models indicating that such systems should be exceedingly rare, short-period gas giants do exist around low-mass stars (T eff < 4965 K), albeit at lower frequency than around hotter stars. Aims. By combining data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and ground-based

WASP-4 b is a hot Jupiter exhibiting a decreasing orbital period, prompting investigations into potential mechanisms driving its evolution. We analysed 173 transit light curves, including 37 new observations, and derived mid-transit timings with EXOFAST, forming the most extensive transit timing variation (TTV) data set for this system. Adding 58

Context. O Vz stars are identified by optical spectra where the He II λ4686 absorption line is more intense than any other He line, suggesting they may be less luminous, less evolved, and closer to the zero-age main sequence (ZAMS). Despite ongoing debate, these stars remain candidates for understanding the early evolutionary stages of O-type stars

Context. Early theoretical works suggested that ultrahot Jupiters have inverted temperature-pressure (T–P) profiles in the presence of optical absorbers, such as TiO and VO. Recently, an inverted T–P profile of KELT-7b was detected, in agreement with the predictions. However, the diagnosis of T–P inversions has always been recognized to be a model

Context. The intracluster light (ICL) comprises stars that are not bound to individual galaxies within a galaxy cluster, and it provides insights into the cluster mass distribution, evolutionary history, and dynamical state. Aims. We study the viability of the intracluster stellar mass as a proxy for computing the total mass profiles of galaxy
