  • Hyades Member K2-136c: The Smallest Planet in an Open Cluster with a Precisely Measured Mass
    K2-136 is a late-K dwarf (0.742 ± 0.039 M ⊙) in the Hyades open cluster with three known, transiting planets and an age of 650 ± 70 Myr. Analyzing K2 photometry, we found that planets K2-136b, c, and d have periods of 8.0, 17.3, and 25.6 days and radii of 1.014 ± 0.050 R ⊕, 3.00 ± 0.13 R ⊕, and 1.565 ± 0.077 R ⊕, respectively. We collected 93

  • J-PLUS: characterization of high-velocity stars in the second data release
    High-velocity stars in the Milky Way are related to extreme astrophysical phenomena. In this work, we characterize 28 stars with Galactocentric velocities higher than 400 $\mathrm{km\, s^{-1}}$ observed in the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey Data Release 2 (J-PLUS DR2) survey. We combine J-PLUS photometry with astrometric data from the

  • Multiwavelength observations of the extraordinary accretion event AT2021lwx
    We present observations from X-ray to mid-infrared wavelengths of the most energetic non-quasar transient ever observed, AT2021lwx. Our data show a single optical brightening by a factor >100 to a luminosity of 7 × 10 45 erg s -1 and a total radiated energy of 1.5 × 10 53 erg, both greater than any known optical transient. The decline is smooth and

  • OzDES Reverberation Mapping Programme: Mg II lags and R-L relation
    The correlation between the broad line region radius and continuum luminosity (R-L relation) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is critical for single-epoch mass estimates of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). At z ~ 1-2, where AGN activity peaks, the R-L relation is constrained by the reverberation mapping (RM) lags of the Mg II line. We present 25

  • The MAGPI Survey: impact of environment on the total internal mass distribution of galaxies in the last 5 Gyr
    We investigate the impact of environment on the internal mass distribution of galaxies using the Middle Ages Galaxy Properties with Integral field spectroscopy (MAGPI) survey. We use 2D resolved stellar kinematics to construct Jeans dynamical models for galaxies at mean redshift z ~ 0.3, corresponding to a lookback time of 3-4 Gyr. The internal

  • The First Detection of an Orphan Burst at the Rise Phase
    We report on the earliest detection of the optical transient MASTER OT J123248.62-012924.5 coincident within the error box with the optical and X-ray transient AT2021lfa/ZTF21aayokph. In our images the brightness of the object rises monotonically with $7σ$ confidence. We interpret this transient as a gamma-ray burst (GRB) characterized by smooth
