abstract
This paper presents a table with estimates of the absolute magnitude of the Sun and the conversions from $vegamag$ to the AB and ST systems for several wide-band filters used in ground and space-based observatories. These estimates use the dustless spectral energy distribution (SED) of Vega, calibrated absolutely using the SED of Sirius, to set the $vegamag$ zero-points and a composite spectrum of the Sun that coadds space-based observations from the ultra-violet to the near infrared with models of the Solar atmosphere. The uncertainty of the absolute magnitudes is estimated comparing the synthetic colors with photometric measurements of solar analogs and is found to be $\sim$ 0.02 magnitudes. Combined with the uncertainty of $\sim$ 2% in the calibration of the Vega SED, the errors of these absolute magnitudes are $\sim$ 3--4%. Using these SEDs, for the three of the most utilized filters in extragalactic work the estimated absolute magnitudes of the Sun are $M_B$ = 5.44, $M_V$ = 4.81 and $M_K$ = 3.27 mag in the $vegamag$ system and $M_B$ = 5.31, $M_V$ = 4.80 and $M_K$ = 5.08 mag in AB.

457P shows dust activity without detectable H2O, CO, CO2, or CH3OH, with Q(H2O) < 2e24 molecules/s, indicating it may be more volatile-depleted than other main-belt comets.
Multi-band photometry and Monte Carlo modeling of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS yield a dust size distribution with power-law index -3.5 and a phase curve showing opposition surge of 0.1-0.4 mag distinct from Solar System comets.
A ~60-minute microlensing event is interpreted via Bayesian modeling as a ~0.03 Earth-mass primordial black hole in the Milky Way dark-matter halo.
FUor masses inferred from Keplerian line broadening in H-band spectra match the solar neighborhood IMF, indicating a universal eruptive phase during star formation.
Using lensed JWST data behind Abell S1063, the UVLF at z~6-11 is fit with gradual quadratic turnover, yielding no evidence for turnover to M_UV=-13.5 at z=6, exclusion limits on turnover models, and lower bounds showing faint galaxies contribute >50% of UV luminosity density and ~64% of ionizing pho
Bulgeless galaxies trace the upper envelope of the mass-R1 relation with scatter driven by central stellar density and the spatial configuration of mergers rather than their number.
JWST observations of 133P/Elst-Pizarro yield water outgassing rates of (1.9 ± 0.6) × 10^25 and (1.4 ± 0.4) × 10^25 molecules/s at true anomalies 8° and 37.4°, with hypervolatile depletion Q(CO2)/Q(H2O) < 0.009 and an average log(Afrho/Q(H2O)) = -24.6 ± 0.2 across three MBCs.
The Sagittarius dwarf progenitor had a metallicity gradient of roughly -0.3 dex per kpc prior to infall.
Analysis of eight 2021 outbursts on comet 7P/Pons-Winnecke using ground-based photometry yields ejecta masses of 10^5-10^6 kg and normalized rates comparable to several other comets but discrepant with 67P spacecraft data.
Observational analysis of 21 giant stars shows Fe I+Fe II blend emission proportional to Ca II K with matching Teff power-law exponent and a slope break in the flux ratio at log g ≈ 2.5.
Simulations forecast 21-51% probability of resolving individual SMBH binaries with PTAs in 0-10 years, with localization areas containing ~190k early-type galaxies on average and a ranking method that excludes roughly half the candidates when galaxy properties are available.
Multiwavelength study of 621 winged radio galaxies shows XRGs are radio-luminous with frequent backflow signatures while ZRGs link to lower jet power and environmental perturbations.
High-mass quiescent galaxies in clusters assemble more luminous stellar halos than field galaxies while low-mass cluster galaxies assemble less luminous ones over 0.1 < z < 1.
Tidal stripping fails to explain missing bright red giants near Sgr A* as loss-cone diffusion scales too weakly with stellar radius compared to the rapid drop in red-giant lifetimes.

AMPM II. A Lunar-Mass Primordial Black Hole Microlensing Candidate in the Milky Way Halo
A ~60-minute microlensing event is interpreted via Bayesian modeling as a ~0.03 Earth-mass primordial black hole in the Milky Way dark-matter halo.
