We present an analysis of microlensing event OGLE-2019-BLG-0825. This event was identified as a planetary candidate by preliminary modeling. We find that significant residuals from the best-fit static binary-lens model exist and a xallarap effect can fit the residuals very well and significantly improves χ 2 values. On the other hand, by including

We present the discovery of the eclipsing double white dwarf (WD) binary WDJ 022558.21-692025.38 that has an orbital period of 47.19 min. Following identification with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, we obtained time series ground based spectroscopy and high-speed multiband ULTRACAM photometry which indicate a primary DA WD of mass $0.40

The origin of rapid rotation in massive stars remains debated, although binary interactions are now often advocated as a cause. However, the broad and shallow lines in the spectra of fast rotators make direct detection of binarity difficult. In this paper, we report on the discovery and analysis of multiplicity for three fast-rotating massive stars

We present the new design of the ATLAS unit (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (see [1]) to be installed at Teide Observatory (TO) in Tenerife island (Spain), and the results of the ongoing tests of the first module (ATLAS-P). ATLAS-Teide, the 5th ATLAS unit, will be built by the IAC and will be operated as part of the ATLAS network in

Recent cosmic shear studies have shown that higher-order statistics (HOS) developed by independent teams now outperform standard two-point estimators in terms of statistical precision thanks to their sensitivity to the non-Gaussian features of large-scale structure. The aim of the Higher-Order Weak Lensing Statistics (HOWLS) project is to assess

On the 26th of September, 2022, at 23:14 UT, the APL/NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft impacted successfully on the secondary of the NEA binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, after a 10 months travel. [1] The 589 kg spacecraft impacted Dimorphos at 6.14 km/s, and images of the system were taken by the DRACO camera onboard DART
