With tens to hundreds of spectra of white dwarfs being taken each night from multi-object spectroscopic surveys, automated spectral classification is essential as part of efficient data processing. In this study, we design a neural network to classify the spectral type of white dwarfs using a combination of spectra from the Dark Energy

Solar pores are strongly magnetized regions without a photospheric penumbra, with predominantly vertical magnetic fields. We present a multiline investigation of flashes in a pore using high-resolution Swedish Solar Telescope observations in Fe I 6302, Ca II (λ8542 and K), and Hβ, complemented with (extreme-)UV observations from the Interface

We report the confirmation of three transiting exoplanets orbiting TOI-1243 (LSPM J0902+7138), TOI-4529 (G 2-21), and TOI-5388 (Wolf 346) that were initially detected by TESS through ground-based photometry and radial velocity follow-up measurements with CARMENES. The planets present short orbital periods of 4.65, 5.88, and 2.59 days, and they

The ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are some of the oldest and most metal-poor environments in the Local Group. In particular, they are predicted to host the first stars (only H and He) that lit up in our Universe. No metal-free stars have been found to date, but their chemical products can be observed on the surfaces of the ancient second

Luminous infrared (IR) galaxies are key sites of obscured stellar mass assembly at z > 0.5. Their star formation rates (SFRs) are often estimated using the luminosities of the 6.2 and 11.2 μm polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) features or those of the [Ne II] and [Ne III] fine-structure lines, as they are minimally affected by obscuration. It is

The Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM) survey is an ESO large programme designed to obtain multi-epoch spectroscopy for 929 massive stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). It will provide binary fractions and orbital configurations of binary systems and search for dormant black hole binary candidates (OB+BH). We present projected rotational
