Astronomers test a method for investigating cosmic inflation
A team of astronomers from the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ), with participation by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) have...
Asymmetrical tidal tails of open star clusters: stars crossing their cluster's práh<SUP>†</SUP> challenge Newtonian gravitation
After their birth a significant fraction of all stars pass through the tidal threshold (práh) of their cluster of origin into the classical tidal tails. The...
Asymmetries in stellar streams induced by a galactic merger
Stellar streams are sensitive to perturbations from, for example, giant molecular clouds, bars and spiral arms, infalling dwarf galaxies, or globular clusters...

Asymmetries of the Stokes V profiles observed by HINODE SOT/SP in the quiet Sun
Aims: A recent analysis of polarization measurements of HINODE SOT/SP in the quiet Sun pointed out very complex shapes of Stokes V profiles. Here we present the...
AT2021uey: A planetary microlensing event outside the Galactic bulge
We report the analysis of a planetary microlensing event AT2021uey. The event was observed outside the Galactic bulge and alerted both space-(Gaia) and ground...
Atmospheric and seeing forecast: WRF model validation with in situ measurements at ORM
We present a comparison between in situ measurements and forecasted data at the Observatorio del Roque de Los Muchachos. Forecasting is obtained with the...
Atmospheric characterization of the ultra-hot Jupiter MASCARA-2b/KELT-20b. Detection of Ca II, Fe II, Na I, and the Balmer series of H (Hα, Hβ, and Hγ) with high-dispersion transit spectroscopy (Corrigendum)
Atmospheric characterization of the ultra-hot Jupiter MASCARA-2b/KELT-20b. Detection of CaII, FeII, NaI, and the Balmer series of H (Hα, Hβ, and Hγ) with high-dispersion transit spectroscopy
Ultra-hot Jupiters orbit very close to their host star and consequently receive strong irradiation, causing their atmospheric chemistry to be different from the...
