Self-consistent simulations reveal that reverse shocks in GRB photospheres stay radiation-mediated down to optical depths of a few tenths, with photons decoupling over a broad radial range and forming a quasi-thermal post-cursor.
A new histogram-free likelihood method applied to simulated JWST observations of brown dwarfs shows that globular cluster ages can be determined with formal errors under 0.2 Gyr.
ALMA observations reveal ram-pressure stripping in five galaxies at z=2.51, the most distant confirmed instances, indicating environmental gas removal in a protocluster.
Calypso is a parameter-conditioned stochastic surrogate model for circumbinary accretion flows using PCA and multivariate Gaussian modeling, released as open-source software with a closed-form likelihood for parameter inference from time series.
Realistic ISM fluctuations from TIGRESS-NCR MHD simulations drive stellar radial heating with σ_R ∝ t^{1/2} (early, cold) and t^{1/5} (late, warm) plus substantial migration explained by quasilinear theory with λ_* ~600 pc and τ_* ~70 Myr.
Blue straggler stars in old open clusters exhibit a Kraft break in rotation, with rapid rotators above the break and slow rotators below, indicating their envelopes behave like those of single stars.
Red quasars are intrinsically X-ray weak with low alpha_OX values, tracing a distinct evolutionary stage of suppressed black hole accretion relative to stellar mass growth.
First detection of QPOs above 250 keV in Swift J1727.8-1613 with up to 8.9 sigma significance, showing decreasing rms and increasing soft lags that suggest a geometric origin from small-scale jet precession.
At z=1, disk galaxies exhibit U-shaped stellar age profiles with turnover at the edge, indicating inside-out growth with approximately 300% mass increase in outer regions since z=0.
First near-IR weak-lensing analysis of CANDELS fields detects 12 shear-selected overdensities with masses 0.2-2.2 x 10^14 solar masses at redshifts 0.22-0.9 and mean z=0.68.
A soft-spectrum PULX candidate is reported in Cen A but XMM-SAS randomisation during data reduction renders the marginal 1.27 Hz pulsation detection unreliable across repeated reductions.
MELTYQ couples magma-atmosphere equilibrium models with spectral retrievals to constrain sub-Neptune magma oxidation states and volatile inventories from transmission spectra.
Spectroscopic members of the M92 stream yield a Milky Way bar pattern speed of 29.1 +0.7/-0.4 km s^{-1} kpc^{-1}.
Kriging and Gaussian mixture modeling applied to HST data yield 1-pc resolution dust extinction maps in the SMC and LMC, showing log-normal column density distributions and systematic differences from FIR-derived dust masses.
Multimessenger observations and one-zone leptohadronic modeling of PKS 1725+123 during a flare constrain its emission to external Compton gamma-rays, SSC X-rays, and a neutrino rate of about 0.3 events per year peaking at 1 PeV.
Type Ib supernovae are systematically bluer than Type Ic supernovae in optical colors, likely due to helium-rich versus helium-poor progenitors.
The mHz QPO in 1ES 1927+654 has persisted and stabilized at ~2.5 mHz with stable soft lags, no strong harmonic, and repeatable large-amplitude flux patterns, also seen in NuSTAR.
Dynamic Time Warping with a shared warping path across parameters aligns binary stellar tracks for accurate interpolation while preserving physical relationships such as the Stefan-Boltzmann law.
The double-white-dwarf model for sources like CHIME/ILT J1634+44 predicts a beat-period drift of |P_b dot| ~ 10^{-10} s s^{-1}, producing tens of seconds of O-C timing drift in one year and enabling a minimal falsifiable test via joint period and derivative measurements.
Bar pattern speeds anti-correlate with stellar and total dynamical mass in 30 galaxies, placing the slowest bars in the most massive systems and supporting angular momentum transfer to dark matter.
A local Tremaine-Weinberg framework integrates the continuity equation over flexible loops to measure galactic pattern speeds, recovering standard methods as special cases and validated on IllustrisTNG simulations.
A z=4.9 LAE protocluster exhibits 40% larger rest-optical sizes than field LAEs with no UV difference, indicating wavelength-dependent environmental influences on galaxy structure.
Self-gravitating disks heated by stars reach a universal optical effective temperature of 4000-4500 K independent of accretion rate, black hole mass, and viscosity, explaining Little Red Dots.
