Context. We analyze the optical variability of the flat-spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) Ton 599 using BVRI photometry from the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) collaboration (2011─2023), complemented by photometric and spectroscopic data from the Steward Observatory monitoring program. Aims. We aim to characterize short- and long-term optical

Non-uniformity plays an important role for MHD waves. For a uniform plasma of infinite extent the MHD waves can be subdivided in two classes with distinct properties. The first class contains the Alfvén waves. The Alfvén waves are incompressible and propagate parallel vorticity. They do not have a parallel component of displacement, they do not

TOI-282 is a bright (V = 9.38) F8 main-sequence star known to host three transiting long-period (P b = 22.9 d, P c = 56.0 d, and P d = 84.3 d) small (R p ≍ 2─4 R ⊕) planets. The orbital period ratio of the two outermost planets, namely TOI-282 c and d, is close to the 3:2 commensurability, suggesting that the planets might be trapped in a mean

We present a radiation-magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD) simulation of a magnetic cancellation event. The model is calculated with the Bifrost code and spans from the uppermost convection zone to the corona. The cancellation occurs between the positive polarity of an emerged magnetic bipole and a preexisting negative polarity. We try both to understand

It is relatively rare for gas giant planets to have resonant or near-resonant companions, but these systems are particularly useful for constraining planet formation and migration models. In this study, we examine Kepler-1624b, a sub-Saturn orbiting an M dwarf that was previously found to exhibit transit timing variations (TTVs) with an amplitude

The large-scale structure survey J-PAS is taking data since October 2023. In this work, we present a forecast based on the Fisher matrix method to establish its sensitivity to the sum of the neutrino masses. We adapt the Fisher Galaxy Survey Code (FARO) to account for the neutrino mass under various configurations applied to galaxy clustering
