We report an unusual case of a two-ribbon flare associated with an umbral brightening in a magnetically unipolar region.

Context. The penumbra of sunspots has a complex magnetic field topology whose three-dimensional organization remains unclear after more than a century of...

Aims: Flip-flops are top-hat-like X-ray flux variations, which have been observed in some transient accreting black hole binary systems, and feature...

We study the quiescent ultradiffuse galaxy FCC 224 in the Fornax cluster using Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging, motivated by peculiar properties of its...

We report the discovery of an unusual low-ionization broad absorption line quasar at z=1.776 which exhibits absorption lines from many excited states of Fe II...

We have serendipitously discovered that Leoncino Dwarf, an ultrafaint, low-metallicity record-holder dwarf galaxy, may have hosted a transient source, and...

Context. Small planets located at the lower mode of the bimodal radius distribution are generally assumed to be composed of iron and silicates in a proportion...

Aims: We present a number of improvements to the MILES library and stellar population models. We correct some small errors in the radial velocities of the stars...

Context. Found within the central molecular zone, the Quintuplet is one of the most massive young clusters in the Galaxy. As a consequence it offers the...
