Description
The analysis of the efficiency of accretion in the X-ray binary system A 0535 + 26/HDE 245770 and of the specific angular momentum of the matter accreted during its X-ray outbursts leads to the conclusion that there are two disks present in the system. An excretion disk around the Be star HDE 245770 and an accretion disk (possibly temporary) around the neutron star A 0535 + 26. The two failures of the pulsar to produce the expected X-ray outbursts in 1985-86 indicate that probably there exists a state in which the pulsar remains 'fast' (i.e., rotates faster than it would correspond to its instantaneous equilibrium period) during the whole orbital cycle, including the periastron passages.

    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

    Counting stars from the integrated spectra of galaxies
    Over the last few decades, evolutionary population synthesis models have powered an unmatched leap forward in our understanding of galaxies. From dating the age of the first galaxies in the Universe to providing detailed measurements of the chemical composition of nearby galaxies, the success of this approach built upon simple stellar population

    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
