Galactic cosmic rays at 0.7 A.U. with Venus Express housekeeping data
DOI: 10.1016/j.pss.2024.105867 Bibcode: 2024P&SS..24205867R

Wood, Simon; Witasse, Olivier; Sánchez-Cano, Beatriz +5 more

We apply a previously developed procedure to characterize galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) at 0.7 A.U. with engineering data coming from the Venus Express mission. The engineering parameters are the Error Detection and Correction EDAC cumulative counters, used for detection and correction of memory errors induced by highly energetic particles. It has a…

The emerging archaeological record of Mars
DOI: 10.1038/s41550-024-02439-w Bibcode: 2024NatAs...8.1490H

Fairén, Alberto G.; Holcomb, Justin A.; O'Leary, Beth L. +2 more

Humans first reached Mars in 1971, initiating the record of human activity on the Red Planet. As planetary scientists plan for future planetary protection procedures for Mars, they should also consider the developing archaeological record on one of our nearest planets.

Modeling Global Magnetic-Flux Emergence in Bipolar Solar-Active Regions
DOI: 10.1007/s11207-024-02303-0 Bibcode: 2024SoPh..299...56P

Démoulin, Pascal; Mandrini, Cristina H.; López Fuentes, Marcelo +2 more

Active regions (ARs) appear in the solar atmosphere as a consequence of the emergence of magnetic-flux ropes (FR). In this study, we use Bayesian methods to analyze line-of-sight magnetograms of emerging ARs. We employ a FR model consisting of a half-torus field structure based on eight parameters. The goal is to derive constrained physical parame…

The Second Case of a Major Merger Triggering a Starburst in a Green Pea Galaxy
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ad8dd2 Bibcode: 2024ApJ...977...68P

Ghosh, T.; Malhotra, S.; Rhoads, J. +4 more

We have used the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to map H I 21 cm emission from the Green Pea galaxy GP J1148+2546 at z ≈ 0.0451, only the second measurement of the H I spatial distribution of a Green Pea. The VLA H I 21 cm image, the DECaLS optical image, and Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectroscopy show that GP J1148+2546 has two neighbors, t…

A new atmospheric characterization of the sub-stellar companion HR 2562 B with JWST/MIRI observations
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202449951 Bibcode: 2024A&A...689A.185G

Tremblin, P.; Stolker, T.; Lagage, P. O. +8 more

Context. HR 2562 B is a planetary-mass companion at an angular separation of 0.56″ (19 au) from the host star, which is also a member of a select number of L/T transitional objects orbiting a young star. This companion gives us a great opportunity to contextualize and understand the evolution of young objects in the L/T transition. However, the ma…

LeMMINGs. Multiwavelength constraints on the co-existence of nuclear star clusters and AGN in nucleated galaxies
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stae1732 Bibcode: 2024MNRAS.532.4729D

Argo, M. K.; Gallagher, J. S.; Knapen, J. H. +16 more

The relation between nuclear star clusters (NSCs) and the growth of the central supermassive black holes (SMBHs), as well as their connection to the properties of the host galaxies, is crucial for understanding the evolution of galaxies. Recent observations have revealed that about 10 per cent of nucleated galaxies host hybrid nuclei, consisting o…

Parameters of the Possible Companion of the Neutron Star toward the Supernova Remnant G315.4–2.30
DOI: 10.1134/S1063773724700427 Bibcode: 2024AstL...50..550P

Pakhomov, Yu. V.

Based on low-resolution ($$R\approx 3000$$) spectra, we have determined some parameters of the star Gaia DR3 5877303483506681472 ($$G=19.4$$ mag), the closest object to the X-ray source [GV2003…

A detailed study of dwarf galaxies in the core of the Coma Cluster
DOI: 10.1007/s12036-024-10010-2 Bibcode: 2024JApA...45...20P

Hasan, S. N.; Poloji, Nagamani; Hasan, Priya

In an earlier paper, we determined the morphological types of galaxies in the Coma Cluster using data from the HST/ACS Coma Cluster treasury survey. Of the 132 members, 51 are non-dwarfs and 81 are dwarfs. We define dwarfs to have an absolute luminosity MF814W

At the same age, metallicity, and alpha-enhancement, sodium is a more effective tracer of the young and old sequences of the Milky Way disc
DOI: 10.1017/pasa.2024.85 Bibcode: 2024PASA...41...92O

Buder, Sven; Owusu, Evans Kojo; Ruiter, Ashley J. +2 more

Trends in elemental enrichment with stellar age can give us a powerful avenue to identify thus far unexplained origin sites of the elements. We investigate stellar abundance trends using the GALAH DR3 high-resolution spectroscopic dataset of 6 234 solar-type stars. Our study explores the elemental abundance [X/Fe] of sodium (Na) with stellar age. …

A study of centaur (54598) Bienor from multiple stellar occultations and rotational light curves
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202450833 Bibcode: 2024A&A...689A..82R

Colas, F.; Souami, D.; Redfield, S. +40 more

Context. Centaurs, distinguished by their volatile-rich compositions, play a pivotal role in understanding the formation and evolution of the early Solar System, as they represent remnants of the primordial material that populated the outer regions. Stellar occultations offer a means to investigate their physical properties, including shape and ro…
