Description
We perform an analysis of spectra and photometry for 22,770 stars included in the third data release (DR3) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We derive atmospheric parameters and distances. Our analysis procedures are throughly checked using three recently published spectroscopic libraries of nearby stars and alternative methods. The SDSS sample covers a range in stellar brightness of 14

    The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
    WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, saw first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-deg field-of-view prime-focus corrector system, a nearly 1000-multiplex fibre positioner, 20 individually deployable 'mini' integral field units (IFUs), and a single large IFU

    The extent and power of 'maintenance mode' feedback in MaNGA AGN
    We study the ionized gas kinematics of 293 Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) hosts as compared to that of 485 control galaxies from the MaNGA-SDSS survey using measurements of the [O III]$\lambda$5007 Å emission-line profiles, presenting flux, velocity, and W$_{80}$ maps. In 45 per cent of the AGN, a broad component was needed to fit the line profiles

    TOI-663: A newly discovered multi-planet system with three transiting mini-Neptunes orbiting an early M star
    We present the detection of three exoplanets orbiting the early M dwarf TOI-663 (TIC 54962195; V = 13.7 mag, J = 10.4 mag, R ★ = 0.512 ± 0.015 R ⊙, M ★ = 0.514 ± 0.012 M ⊙, d = 64 pc). TOI-663 b, c, and d, with respective radii of 2.27 ± 0.10 R ⊕, 2.26 ± 0.10 R ⊕, and 1.92 ± 0.13 R ⊕ and masses of 4.45 ± 0.65 M ⊕, 3.65 ± 0.97 M ⊕, and <5.2 M ⊕ at
