Our understanding of the γ-ray sky has improved dramatically in the past decade, however, the unresolved γ-ray background (UGRB) still has a potential wealth of information about the faintest γ-ray sources pervading the Universe. Statistical cross-correlations with tracers of cosmic structure can indirectly identify the populations that most

Standard local helioseismic diagnostics of large sunspots show the signature of anomalously strong compact scatterers of p-modes within about 1 Mm beneath their photospheres. We applied standard "subjacent-vantage phase-correlation helioseismic holography" to the major sunspot umbra and inner penumbra in NOAA AR12192 as it crossed central solar

In the past decade the study of exoplanet atmospheres at high-spectral resolution, via transmission/emission spectroscopy and cross-correlation techniques for atomic/molecular mapping, has become a powerful and consolidated methodology. The current limitation is the signal-to-noise ratio that one can obtain during a planetary transit, which is in

As the fields of stellar and exoplanetary study grow and revolutionary new detection instruments are created, it is imperative that a homogeneous, precise source of stellar parameters is available. This first work of the gr8stars collaboration presents the all-sky magnitude limited sample of 5645 bright F,G,K, and M type dwarfs, along with

The physics of recombination lines in the He I singlet system is expected to be relatively simple, supported by accurate atomic models. We examine the intensities of He I singlets λ3614, λ3965, λ5016, λ6678, and λ7281 and the triplet He I λ5876 in various types of ionized nebulae and compare them with theoretical predictions to test the validity of

Context. The aim of this work is to provide evidence of the imprints left by large-scale structure on galaxy properties by selecting extensive samples of galaxies from different environments, while matching their intrinsic and local environmental characteristics. Aims. We investigated the effects of the large-scale structure on the g ‑ r stellar
