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.
