The oldest stars in the Milky Way (born in the first few billion years) are expected to have a high density in the inner few kpc, spatially overlapping with the Galactic bulge. We use spectroscopic data from the Pristine Inner Galaxy Survey (PIGS) to study the dynamical properties of ancient, metal-poor inner Galaxy stars. We compute distances

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

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

Hasta ahora, la única formar de monitorizar de manera consistente el hemisferio del Sol no visible (farside de aquí en adelante) desde la Tierra es el uso de métodos heliosísmicos. Estos métodos interpretan las oscilaciones del hemisferio visible (nearside de aquí en adelante) para inferir la actividad del farside, que es de gran importancia en las

To better understand which sources contribute to optical passband fluxes of Q0957+561, we present and analyse light curves of the doubly imaged gravitationally lensed quasar from its discovery to 2023. After an early microlensing event, the difference light curves (describing delay-corrected flux ratios between the two quasar images) only show

The study of temperate sub-Neptunes is the new frontier in exoplanetary science. A major development in the past year has been the first detection of carbon-bearing molecules in the atmosphere of a temperate sub-Neptune, K2-18 b, a possible Hycean world, with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The JWST is poised to characterize the atmospheres
