The RRc star IY Lyr shows a 3.94-year orbital wobble consistent with a ~1.37 solar-mass compact companion, likely a neutron star, and is claimed to be the first such system found in the Galactic thick disk.

StarCLR pretrains on TESS light curves via contrastive learning on overlapping subsequences and improves variable star classification F1 scores over scratch-trained models when fine-tuned on TESS, ZTF, and Gaia.
ZTF data yielded 32 robust ultracool dwarf rotation periods including 12 new detections, with a trend of decreasing periods toward later spectral types in dwarfs older than 100 Myr.
A synthesis of observational data on red novae as stellar merger events, including outburst properties, progenitor diversity, and long-term remnants.
