During a serendipitous observation of the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras, a very long type I X-ray burst was observed from the low mass X-ray binary Serpens X-1...
A Fourth Planet in the Kepler-51 System Revealed by Transit Timing Variations
Kepler-51 is a ≲1 Gyr old Sun-like star hosting three transiting planets with radii ≈6–9 R ⊕ and orbital periods ≈45–130 days. Transit timing variations (TTVs)...
A Framework for Prioritizing the TESS Planetary Candidates Most Amenable to Atmospheric Characterization
A key legacy of the recently launched the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission will be to provide the astronomical community with many of the...
Context. The solar spectrum is a primary reference for the study of physical processes in stars and their variation during activity cycles. High resolution...
A fresh look at the seismic spectrum of HD49933: analysis of 180 days of CoRoT photometry
Context: Solar-like oscillations have now been observed in several stars, thanks to ground-based spectroscopic observations and space-borne photometry. CoRoT...
A full transit of v<SUP>2</SUP> Lupi d and the search for an exomoon in its Hill sphere with CHEOPS
The planetary system around the naked-eye star v 2 Lupi (HD 136352; TOI-2011) is composed of three exoplanets with masses of 4.7, 11.2, and 8.6 Earth masses (M...
A Full-Sun Magnetic Index from Helioseismology Inferences
Solar magnetic indices are used to model the solar irradiance and ultimately to forecast it. However, the observation of such indices is generally limited to...
A fundamental plane for field star-forming galaxies
Context. Star formation rate (SFR), metallicity, and stellar mass are among the most important parameters of star-forming (SF) galaxies characterizing their...
We compare {{{H}}}α emission profiles of 12 dynamically confirmed black holes (BHs) and 2 neutron star X-ray transients (SXTs) in quiescence with those of a...
