We use spectral energy distribution fitting to place constraints on the stellar populations of 59 ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) in the low-to-moderate density fields of the MATLAS survey. We use the routine PROSPECTOR, coupled with archival data in the optical from the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey, and near- and mid-infrared imaging from the

Detailed chemical studies of F/G/K - or solar-type - stars have long been routine in stellar astrophysics, enabling studies in both Galactic chemodynamics and exoplanet demographics. However, similar understanding of the chemistry of M and late-K dwarfs - the most common stars in the Galaxy - has been greatly hampered both observationally and

We study the circular polarization of the magnetic-field-induced transition (MIT) between the 3d 5( 6 S)4d 7 D 2 and 3d 5( 6 S)4p 7 P 4° states of Cr I at 533.03 nm (wavelength in air). The fractional circular polarization V/I of this spectral line resulting from the solution of the radiation transfer problem in a sunspot model permeated by a

The discovery of interstellar comet 2I/Borisov offered the unique opportunity to obtain a detailed analysis of an object coming from another planetary system, and leaving behind material in our interplanetary space. We continuously observed 2I/Borisov between 2019 October 3 and December 13 using the 1.52-m Telescopio Carlos Sánchez equipped with

Precise lens modeling is a critical step in time delay studies of multiply imaged quasars, which are key for measuring some important cosmological parameters (especially H 0). However, lens models (in particular those semi-automatically generated) often show discrepancies with the observed flux ratios between the different quasar images. These flux

Redshift measurements, primarily obtained from host galaxies, are essential for inferring cosmological parameters from type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). Matching SNe to host galaxies using images is nontrivial, resulting in a subset of SNe with mismatched hosts and thus incorrect redshifts. We evaluate the host galaxy mismatch rate and resulting biases
