Aims: A transiting planet candidate with a sub-Neptune radius orbiting the nearby (d = 51.9 ± 0.07 pc) M1.5 V star TOI-1470 with a period of ~2.5 d was announced by the NASA Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), which observed the field of TOI-1470 in four different sectors. We aim to validate its planetary nature using precise radial…

Gaia search for stellar companions of TESS Objects of Interest IV
DOI: 10.1002/asna.20230055 Bibcode: 2023AN....34430055M

Mugrauer, M.; Rück, J.; Michel, K. -U.

We present the latest results of our ongoing multiplicity study of (Community) TESS Objects of Interest, using astrometric and photometric data from the ESA‑Gaia mission to detect stellar companions of these stars and characterize their properties. A total of 134 binary, 6 hierarchical triple, and two quadruple star systems are identified among 11…

ALMA and Keck analysis of Fomalhaut field sources: JWST's Great Dust Cloud is a background object
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad2058 Bibcode: 2023MNRAS.524.2698K

Kalas, Paul; Fitzgerald, Michael P.; Kennedy, Grant M. +1 more

At 7.7 pc, the A-type star Fomalhaut hosts a bright debris disc with multiple radial components. The disc is eccentric and misaligned, strongly suggesting that it is sculpted by interaction with one or more planets. Compact sources are now being detected with JWST, suggesting that new planet detections may be imminent. However, to confirm such sou…

PAH Emission from Star-forming Galaxies in JWST Mid-infrared Imaging of the Lensing Cluster SMACS J0723.3-7327
DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/acc1e0 Bibcode: 2023ApJ...946L..40L

Langeroodi, Danial; Hjorth, Jens

The mid-infrared spectra of star-forming galaxies (SFGs) are characterized by characteristic broad polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission features at 3-20 µm. As these features are redshifted, they are predicted to dominate the flux at specific mid-infrared wavelengths, leading to substantial redshift-dependent color variations in br…

Photometric Properties and Stellar Parameters of the Rapidly Rotating Magnetic Early-B Star HD 345439
DOI: 10.1088/1674-4527/ac9f07 Bibcode: 2023RAA....23a5002S

Zhang, Yu; Liu, Jin-Zhong; Li, Lei +8 more

We first present the multicolor photometry results of the rapidly rotating magnetic star HD 345439 using the Nanshan One-meter Wide-field Telescope. From the photometric observations, we derive a rotational period of 0.7699 ± 0.0014 day. The light curves of HD 345439 are dominated by the double asymmetric S-wave feature that arises from the magnet…

Unraveling the Thermodynamic Enigma between Fast and Slow Coronal Mass Ejections
DOI: 10.3847/1538-4357/ad00ba Bibcode: 2023ApJ...958...92K

Wang, Yuming; Zhang, Jie; Mishra, Wageesh +3 more

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the most energetic expulsions of magnetized plasma from the Sun that play a crucial role in space weather dynamics. This study investigates the diverse kinematics and thermodynamic evolution of two CMEs (CME1: 2011 September 24 and CME2: 2018 August 20) at coronal heights where thermodynamic measurements are limit…

Cluster aggregates surrounding Pismis 5 in the Vela molecular ridge
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202244737 Bibcode: 2023A&A...675A..67Q

Hu, Qingshun; Zhang, Yu; Ma, Shuo +5 more

Context. In the Gaia era, the precision of astrometric data is unprecedented. High-quality data make it easier to find more cluster aggregates and gather further confirmation of these open clusters.
Aims: We use Gaia Data Release 3 (DR3) to redetermine the open clusters surrounding Pismis 5 in the Vela molecular ridge (VMR). We also investiga…

XMM-Newton view of the shock heating in an early merging cluster, CIZA J1358.9-4750
DOI: 10.1093/pasj/psac087 Bibcode: 2023PASJ...75...37O

Sato, Kosuke; Nakazawa, Kazuhiro; Gu, Liyi +10 more

CIZA J1358.9-4750 is a nearby galaxy cluster in the early phase of a major merger. The two-dimensional temperature map using XMM-Newton EPIC-PN observation confirms the existence of a high-temperature region, which we call the "hot region," in the "bridge region" connecting the two clusters. The ~500 kpc wide region between the south-east and nort…

Very late-time spectroscopy of SN 2009ip: Constraints on the ongoing Hα emission
DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202347319 Bibcode: 2023A&A...677L...1P

Prieto, Jose L.; Dessart, Luc; Pessi, Thallis

Context. The peculiar supernova (SN) 2009ip was an ambiguous event that placed many questions on its true origin. Here, we present very late-time spectroscopic and photometric observations of SN 2009ip, obtained 9 years (3274 days) after the 2012B outburst.
Aims: We analyze the Hα emission still present in the very late-time spectrum of SN 20…

Alignment and rotational disruption of dust grains in the Galactic Centre revealed by polarized dust emission
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad1246 Bibcode: 2023MNRAS.522.4196A

Hoang, Thiem; Akshaya, M. S.

We study the alignment and rotational disruption of dust grains at the centre of our Galaxy using polarized thermal dust emission observed by SOFIA/HAWC+ and JCMT/SCUPOL at 53, 216, and 850 µm. We analysed the relationship between the observed polarization degree with total emission intensity, dust temperature, gas column density, and polarization…
