Coronal heating, chromospheric heating, and the heating & acceleration of the solar wind, are well-known problems in solar physics. Additionally, knowledge of the magnetic energy that powers solar flares and coronal mass ejections, important drivers of space weather, is handicapped by imperfect determination of the magnetic field in the sun's

Context. The discovery of moderate differential rotation between the core and the envelope of evolved solar-like stars could be the signature of a strong magnetic field trapped inside the radiative interior. The population of intermediate-mass red giants presenting surprisingly low-amplitude mixed modes (i.e. oscillation modes that behave as

The strongest quasi-steady heating in the solar atmosphere occurs in the active chromosphere and in particular within plage regions. Our aim is to investigate the relation between magnetic structures and the signatures of heating in the plage regions so as to clarify what mechanisms are at work. We observed a plage region in NOAA active region

We investigate the gravitational microlensing event KMT-2019-BLG-1715, the light curve of which shows two short-term anomalies from a caustic-crossing binary-lensing light curve: one with a large deviation and the other with a small deviation. We identify five pairs of solutions, in which the anomalies are explained by adding an extra lens or

We present a new method to assess the properties of transiting planet candidates by multicolor photometry. By analyzing multicolor transit/eclipse light curves and apparent magnitudes of the target in parallel, this method attempts to identify the nature of the system and provide a quantitative constraint on the properties of unresolved companion(s

Context. The role of radio mode feedback in non radio-loud quasars needs to be explored in depth to determine its true importance. Its effects can be identified based on the evidence of interactions between the radio structures and the ambient ionised gas. Aims: We investigate this interaction in a sample of 13 optically selected type 2 quasars
