Description
The ISO ground-based preparatory programme working group (ISO-GBPPwg) was set the goal in 1990 to characterise accurately in the infrared some 400 stars covering the whole sky. Telescopes in Chile, Hawaii and the Canary Islands were used to obtain J, H, K, and L photometry for all of these stars and, for the brightest ones, spectroscopy and/or N and Q bolometry. The stars were chosen single and non-variable, with spectral type in the range K9 to A0 and luminosity class III to V. The stellar effective temperatures (Te) were determined using the Infrared Flux Method and the V-K versus Te relationship. The results from both methods were combined with the surface gravity and metallicity to give the spectral energy distributions up to about 50 μm, from the Kurucz stellar model atmosphere grids. Tests were then made to confirm the accuracy of the spectral energy distributions over the required wavelength range.

    Einasto Gravitational Potentials have Difficulty to Hold Spherically Symmetric Stellar Systems with Cores
    It was known that an ideal spherically symmetric stellar system with isotropic velocities and an inner core cannot reside in a Navarro, Frenk, and White (NFW) gravitational potential. The incompatibility can be pinned down to the radial gradient of the NFW potential in the very center of the system, which differs from zero. The gradient is

    The Aligned Orbit of a Hot Jupiter around the M Dwarf TOI-4201
    Measuring the obliquities of stars hosting giant planets may shed light on the dynamical history of planetary systems. Significant efforts have been made to measure the obliquities of FGK stars with hot Jupiters, mainly based on observations of the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect. In contrast, M dwarfs with hot Jupiters have hardly been explored because

    ROSALIA: ROman Sky Analyst for Low surface brightness Imaging & Astronomy
    Diffuse emission in the outskirts of galaxies, such as stellar tidal streams, galaxy stellar halos and intracluster light, provides important constraints on the structure and evolution of the Universe. However, such low surface brightness diffuse emission can be up to thousands of times dimmer (>29 AB mag/[square arcseconds]) than the sky
