We investigate the solar origin and heliospheric evolution of an intense geomagnetic storm that occurred on 2023 March 23─24. Despite multiple candidate coronal mass ejections (CMEs) observed between March 19 and 21, a ...

We aim to identify the cluster members, estimate cluster properties, study the dynamical state of the clusters as a function of mass, trace the existence of dynamical effects in massive stars, and check for spatial patterns ...
CubeSats present unique opportunities for observational astronomy in the modern era. They are useful in observing difficult-to-access wavelength regions and long-term monitoring of interesting astronomical sources. However, ...

Powerful, large-scale relativistic jets are usually associated with massive, old elliptical galaxies. This paradigm
has recently been challenged by the identification of narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies, thought to ...
Using observations of the solar corona in the 5303 Å (Fe XIV) emission line with the Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC) on board Aditya-L1, we estimated the electron density (Ne), thermal energy (ECME), and mass ...
Follow-up studies of persistent emission from fast radio burst (FRB) sources are critical for understanding their elusive emission mechanisms and the nature of their progenitors. This work presents new observations of the ...
Although frequently reported in observations, the definitive confirmation of high-mass prestellar cores has remained elusive, presenting a persistent challenge in star formation studies. Using two-band observational data ...
On 2025 August 18, the LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA collaboration reported gravitational waves from a subthreshold
binary neutron star merger. If astrophysical, this event would have a surprisingly low chirp mass, suggesting that
at ...
Bipolar sunspots, or more generally, bipolar magnetic regions (BMRs), are the dynamic magnetic regions that
appear on the solar surface and are central to solar activity. One striking feature of these regions is that they ...

We present a structural analysis of bulges in dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) host galaxies. Dual AGNs arise in galaxy mergers where both supermassive black holes are actively accreting. The AGNs are typically embedded ...

The present study performed classification global aerosols based on particle linear depolarization ratio (PLDR) and single scattering albedo (SSA) provided from AErosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) Version 3.0 and Level 2.0 ...
Context. This research presents unsupervised machine learning and statistical methods to identify and analyze tidal tails in open star clusters using data from the Gaia DR3 catalog. ...

We present the results of H I line observations towards 26 active galactive nucleus (AGN)-hosting and one star-forming dwarf galaxies ( M∗<10 9.5M⊙) with the 19-beam spectral line receiver of FAST at 1.4 GHz. Our FAST ...
The black hole shadow is fundamentally connected to the structure of light rings and the photon region in the background geometry. We investigate the photon region boundary in a generic asymptotically flat, stationary, ...

Stars primarily form in galactic spiral arms within dense, filamentary molecular clouds. The largest and most elongated of these molecular clouds are referred to as “bones,” which are massive, velocity-coherent filaments ...
A systematic search for H I 21 cm absorption in quasar─galaxy pairs (QGPs) provides a powerful means to map the distribution of cold gas around high-redshift star-forming galaxies. Fiber spectroscopy of high-redshift quasars ...

We report on UV and X-ray observations of the 2024 eruption of the recurrent nova LMCN 1968-12a, a rapidly
recurring extragalactic system with a ∼4.3 yr recurrence period and a massive white dwarf. The eruption was
discovered ...
Robust extragalactic distance measurements are crucial for resolving the persistent discrepancy in the value of the Hubble constant (H0). Active galactic nuclei (AGNs), through their compact and variable broad-line regions, ...
SFO 38, located in the Cepheus molecular cloud within the northern part of the H II region IC 1396, is shaped by intense ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the nearby O6.5V-type star HD 206267 and represents a classic example ...

The evolution of dust in core-collapse supernovae (SNe), in general, is poorly constrained owing to a lack of
infrared observations a few years after explosion. Most theories of dust formation in SNe heavily rely only on ...
