Context. The Javalambre VARiability survey (J-VAR) is a multi-filter photometric survey conducted at the Observatorio Astrofísico de Javalambre, covering selected regions of the northern sky, and providing time-domain information for the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS) fields. J-VAR primarily focuses on small bodies of the

We analyse a sample of 225 star-forming regions from the DESIRED-E project, each with simultaneous determinations of the electron temperature from ionized nitrogen and oxygen, $T_{\rm e}$([N II]) and $T_{\rm e}$([O III]), respectively. We derive new empirical relations connecting the gas-phase metallicity to the global electron temperature, $T_{\rm

Binaries in which both stars are pulsating are rare but extremely valuable. We present the first study of an asteroseismic binary system consisting of a core helium-burning red clump (RC) star and a red giant branch (RGB) star. The Kepler target KIC 10841730 is a wide binary (period $2917 \pm 8$ d) that provides ideal conditions to test the

Symbiotic stars are long-period interacting binaries composed of an evolved giant and a hot compact companion. Their complex spectra and variability make them both astrophysically valuable and observationally challenging. We investigate how known symbiotic stars are represented in Gaia DR3 and the Focused Product Release (FPR), assess the

We investigated the properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) at giant molecular cloud (GMC) scales (∼100 pc) in a sample of 27 nearby luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) spanning all interacting stages along the merger sequence, i.e. from isolated systems to late-stage mergers. In particular, we study the relations between star-formation (SF) and

Double-peaked Hα emission profiles can serve as potential signatures of accreting intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), particularly those residing outside galactic nuclei. Such features are expected to arise from rotating disklike structures around black holes and can be used to identify elusive IMBH candidates. J. Sánchez Almeida et al. reported
