A new 3D non-LTE Ag I model atom yields a solar silver abundance of 1.15 ± 0.08, raising the prior value by 0.19 dex and shrinking the meteoritic offset to 0.06 dex.
3D NLTE sodium abundance corrections relative to 1D LTE are typically negative and larger for saturated lines in giants, reaching -0.7 dex, with a public grid released for use.
Simulations show that 10-30% pollution from supermassive star ejecta reproduces the nitrogen-enhanced abundance pattern of GN-z11 and some other high-z galaxies.
Niebla is an open-source phenomenological code for computing the EBL spectrum via stellar population evolution and multiple dust re-emission models, with three fitted versions and a blazar simulation demonstrating infrared sensitivity.
A multi-parameter fuzzy classification using sigmoidal membership functions derived from Gaussian mixture models on SDSS data yields less contaminated red and green-valley samples with clearer physical trends than hard-boundary methods.
Fast-rotating green valley galaxies maintain higher metallicities than slow-rotating ones because slow rotators experience stronger outflows and more mergers that deplete their chemical content.
MWC 656 hosts a hot stripped star companion of 1.48 solar masses instead of a black hole.
N/O ratios in z~3 star-forming galaxies are indistinguishable from low-redshift values over the metallicity range 12+log(O/H)=7.5-8.44.
The local Hubble constant is measured as 73.04 ± 1.04 km/s/Mpc from Cepheid-calibrated Type Ia supernovae, showing a 5-sigma discrepancy with the Planck+LCDM prediction.
MIST provides a new publicly available grid of solar-scaled stellar isochrones and evolutionary tracks computed self-consistently with MESA from pre-main sequence through advanced stages for masses 0.1-300 solar masses and metallicities -2 to 0.5.
Stellar models require a convective step-overshoot of 1.2 to match the observed k2 in HD 152248, showing that standard models produce insufficient core-to-envelope density contrast in massive stars.
FastChem 4 adds a multidimensional Newton solver, logarithmic element densities, adaptive regularization for condensates, and an expanded database of 800 gas species and 511 condensates across 44 elements, yielding improved convergence and new condensation sequences for solar and carbon-rich cases.
Reddening maps of the LMC and SMC are produced via SED fitting of RGB stars from SMASH and VMC photometry, yielding mean E(B-V) of 0.076 mag and 0.058 mag with relative spatial structure stable across three stellar atmosphere models but absolute values differing by up to 0.03 mag.
Green Pea and Blueberry galaxies live in isolated low-density environments with the lowest neighbor counts among compared galaxy populations.
KIC 3868420 is a newly identified high-amplitude δ Scuti-γ Dor hybrid star in the Hertzsprung gap with best-fit mass 2.26-2.30 solar masses, radius 4.41-4.43 solar radii, and age about 540 million years from frequency matching.
Monte Carlo tests with mock clusters show that fitting Gaia-like photometry with isochrones from different stellar codes produces biases of 0.6 to 1.5 in ΔY/ΔZ unless identical models are used for generation and fitting.
Veiling-corrected lithium abundances in eight young clusters peak at 3.3-3.8 dex with upper age limits of ~5 Myr, alongside slightly sub-solar iron and barium overabundances up to 0.75 dex.
Stacking analysis yields L-M slope 1.56, slightly steeper than self-similar, with X-ray detected clusters showing more centrally concentrated profiles than undetected ones.
Tayler-Spruit magnetic fields can convert low-frequency internal gravity waves to magneto-gravity waves in low-mass star cores, with effects strongest on the red giant branch in central regions.
Realistic 1D neutrino-driven explosions produce lower Fe-peak yields and different lighter-element patterns than piston or bomb models, with explodability driving discrepancies across FRANEC, KEPLER, and MESA progenitors.
Palomar 15 has [Fe/H] = -1.94 dex with no significant abundance spreads, alpha-element patterns typical of outer halo objects, and one star showing elevated Na and Al suggestive of multiple populations.
Planet-hosting wide binaries display diverse differential abundance trends with condensation temperature that are not universal across systems.
MESA gains simultaneous binary star evolution, large nuclear networks, implicit hydrodynamics, and GYRE pulsation coupling for better massive star and supernova modeling.
