Description
Aims.We discuss a simple model of a line-tied coronal arcade with piecewise constant density to explore the effects of curvature on radially polarised fast modes.Methods.A partial differential equation is derived for the velocity perturbation of the fast modes and it is solved analytically in terms of Bessel functions of half integer order, obtaining a dispersion relation.Results.The properties of the modes are studied in terms of the parameters. All the modes are leaky under these conditions. Besides the usual kink and sausage modes, new families are described: the vertical, swaying (longitudinal), and rocking modes arise.Conclusions.The damping rates are similar to observed rates. For thin arcades the modes are markedly different from those of a straight slab and resemble more the modes of a circular membrane.

    An ultra-short-period super-Earth with an extremely high density and an outer companion
    We present the discovery and characterization of a new multi-planetary system around the Sun-like star K2-360 (EPIC 201595106). K2-360 was first identified in K2 photometry as the host of an ultra-short-period (USP) planet candidate with a period of 0.88 d. We obtained follow-up transit photometry, confirming the star as the host of the signal

    Long-term Study of the 2020 Magnetar-like Outburst of the Young Pulsar PSR J1846-0258 in Kes 75
    Magnetar-like activity has been observed in a large variety of neutron stars. PSR J1846‑0258 is a young 327 ms radio-quiet pulsar with a large rotational power (∼8 × 10 36 erg s ‑1), and resides at the center of the supernova remnant Kes 75. It is one of the rare examples of a high-magnetic-field pulsar showing characteristics both of magnetars and

    Constraining the overcontact phase in massive binary evolution: III. Period stability of known B+B and O+B overcontact systems
    Context. Binary systems play a crucial role in massive star evolution. Systems composed of B-type and O-type stars are of particular interest due to their potential to lead to very energetic phenomena or the merging of exotic compact objects. Aims. We aim to determine the orbital period variations of a sample of B+B and O+B massive overcontact
