Description
New polarization data at 850 microns of OMC2 in Orion A are presented. These measurements trace the direction of magnetic fields in the densest parts of the filamentary molecular clouds and form a part of the comparison of magnetic-field directions at various spatial and density scales. They allow us to put constraints on existing models, and better understand the competitive role of magnetic fields and turbulence in the ISM and in the process of star formation.

    VaTEST III: Validation of eight potential super-earths from TESS data
    NASA's all-sky survey mission, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), is specifically engineered to detect exoplanets that transit bright stars. Thus far, TESS has successfully identified approximately 400 transiting exoplanets, in addition to roughly 6 000 candidate exoplanets pending confirmation. In this study, we present the results

    Validation of a Third Planet in the LHS 1678 System
    The nearby LHS 1678 (TOI-696) system contains two confirmed planets and a wide-orbit, likely brown-dwarf companion, which orbit an M2 dwarf with a unique evolutionary history. The host star occupies a narrow "gap" in the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram lower main sequence, associated with the M dwarf fully convective boundary and long-term luminosity

    Infrared Spectroscopy of RNA Nucleosides in a Wide Range of Temperatures
    The RNA world hypothesis suggests that early cellular ancestors relied solely on RNA molecules for both genetic information storage and cellular functions. RNA, composed of four nucleosides—adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, and uridine—forms the basis of this theory. These nucleosides consist of purine nucleobases, adenine and guanine, and pyrimidine
