Descripción
We present UBV Johnson CCD photometry of two young clusters of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), namely NGC 1850 and NGC 1858, which are located at the NW part of the Bar. We determine their reddening, age and slope of the initial mass function (IMF). The age of NGC 1858 is 8 x 106 yr, while that for the majority of stars in NGC 1850 is 70 x 106 yr. In this cluster a younger generation with age of 8 x 106 yr is also present.

    Characterisation at Cryogenic Temperatures of an Attenuator for an Application of Astrophysical Instrumentation with MKIDs
    The use of non-cryogenic certified commercial electronics for cryogenic applications may be attractive due to their cost and availability, but it also carries risks related to reliability, performance and thermal compatibility. The decision to use commercial components that are not certified for cryogenics instead of components specifically

    Context. Hot Jupiters are giant planets subject to intense stellar radiation. The physical and chemical properties of their atmosphere make them the most amenable targets for atmospheric characterization. Aims. In this paper we analyze the photometry collected during the secondary eclipses of the hot Jupiter WASP-3 b by CHEOPS, TESS, and Spitzer

    Blue supergiants as a progenitor of intermediate-luminosity red transients
    The current perspective about the explosions of massive hydrogen-rich blue supergiants is that they resemble SN 1987A. These so-called peculiar Type II supernovae, however, are one of the rarest types of supernovae and may not hence be the fate of all blue supergiants. In this work, we explore other explosion scenarios for blue supergiants. We
