Aims: We inspect the microlensing data of the KMTNet survey collected during the 2018-2020 seasons in order to find lensing events produced by binaries with brown dwarf (BD) companions. Methods: In order to pick out binary-lens events with candidate BD lens companions, we conducted systematic analyses of all anomalous lensing events observed during

We use the recent releases of sensitive VLA/LOFAR large-area surveys at 340 MHz and 54 MHz, in conjunction with the 1.4 GHz NVSS, to accurately determine the `spectral index-flux density relation' (α − S) for extragalactic radio sources selected at metre and decametre wavelengths, with the latter explored for the first time. This newly determined α

We present a new homogeneous survey of VLT/FLAMES LR8 line-of-sight radial velocities (v los) for 1604 resolved red giant branch stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal galaxy. In addition, we provide reliable Ca II triplet metallicities, [Fe/H], for 1339 of these stars. From this combination of new observations (2257 individual spectra) with ESO

Context. Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental mechanism in astrophysics. A common challenge in mimicking this process numerically in particular for the Sun is that the solar electrical resistivity is small compared to the diffusive effects caused by the discrete nature of codes. Aims: We aim to study different anomalous resistivity models and

We present a spatially resolved study of the ionized gas in the central 2 kpc of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110 and investigate the role of its moderate-luminosity radio jet (kinetic radio power of P jet = 2.3 × 10 43 erg s −1). We used new optical integral-field observations taken with the MEGARA spectrograph at the Gran Telescopio Canarias, which

In this work, we study the accuracy that can be achieved when inferring the atmospheric information from realistic numerical magneto-hydrodynamic simulations that reproduce the spatial resolution we will obtain with future observations made by the 4m class telescopes DKIST and EST. We first study multiple inversion configurations using the SIR code
