Description
Optical spectroscopy, H-alpha interferometry, and near-IR mapping and photometry of the bipolar H II region S201 are reported. The observations are used to place constraints upon the energetics of the H II region as well as to provide a clearer understanding of the IR structure. The exciting star is coincident with a central bar of obscuring material and is of spectral type about O 9.5, and is associated with the brightest 2.2 micron point emission source. A detailed investigation of the IR continuum variation suggests a local extinction A(V) of about 23 mag and an associated hot thermal emission component with temperature about 700 K. It is concluded that what is observed is the external ionization of a nearby molecular cloud IC 1848-I.

    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

    Neural calibration of imaging Stokes polarimeters
    Current polarimetric calibration techniques derive the instrument modulation matrix by numerically fitting an instrumental model to measurements of a set of calibration Stokes vectors. These techniques are typically limited to an error on the retrieved normalized Stokes Q, U and V parameters, in the $1\times10^{-2}$ to $1\times10^{-3}$ range. This

    Model-based identification of solar coronal mass ejections using deep neural networks
    Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a major driver of space weather and thus can have important negative technological and social impacts. To assess their geoeffectiveness once they are ejected, it is crucial their prompt identification in coronagraph images. In the last decade, deep neural networks (DNN) have experienced enormous improvements in
