The distribution of close-in exoplanets is shaped by a complex interplay between atmospheric and dynamical processes. The Desert, Ridge, and Savanna (respectively a lack, overoccurence, and mild deficit of Neptunes with increasing periods) illustrate the sensitivity of these worlds to such processes, making them ideal targets to disentangle their

We report a candidate repeating tidal disruption event (TDE), AT2022sxl, found from large-field optical survey data. Two flares with a separation time of ∼7.2 yr between the two optical peaks are observed. Related mid-infrared (MIR) flares, with delay times of ∼200 days are also seen. We analyze two optical spectra of the TDE source, one near the

We present the Rossiter–McLaughlin measurement of the sub-Neptune TOI-1759A b with MAROON-X. A joint analysis with MuSCAT3 photometry and nine additional TESS transits produces a sky-projected obliquity of ∣λ∣ = 4° ± 18°. We also derive a true obliquity of ψ = 24° ± 12° making this planet consistent with full alignment albeit to <1σ. With a period

Context. Providing a detailed picture of the Sagittarius stream offers important constraints on the build-up of the Galactic halo as well as its gravitational potential at large radii. While several attempts have been made to model the structure of the Sagittarius stream, no model has yet been able to match all the features observed for the stream

Surface magnetic fields are detected in less than 10% of the massive O-type star population and even less frequently among "old" massive stars approaching the terminal-age main sequence (TAMS). It is unclear to what extent the rarity of magnetic detections in massive stars near the TAMS is due to magnetic field decay or observational biases. We

Few planetary systems have measured mutual inclinations, and even fewer are found to be non-coplanar. Observing the gravitational interactions between exoplanets is an effective tool to detect non-transiting companions to transiting planets. Evidence of these interactions can manifest in the light curve through transit timing variations (TTVs) and
