Template fits to observed galaxy fluxes allow calculation of K-corrections and conversions among observations of galaxies at various wavelengths. We present a method for creating model-based template sets given a set of heterogeneous photometric and spectroscopic galaxy data. Our technique, non-negative matrix factorization, is akin to principle component analysis (PCA), except that it is constrained to produce nonnegative templates, it can use a basis set of models (rather than the delta function basis of PCA), and it naturally handles uncertainties, missing data, and heterogeneous data (including broad-band fluxes at various redshifts). The particular implementation we present here is suitable for ultraviolet, optical, and near-infrared observations in the redshift range 0 < z < 1.5. Since we base our templates on stellar population synthesis models, the results are intepretable in terms of approximate stellar masses and star-formation histories. We present templates fit with this method to data from GALEX, Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectroscopy and photometry, the Two-Micron All Sky Survey, the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe and the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey. In addition, we present software for using such data to estimate K-corrections and stellar masses.

The COLIBRE-SKIRT pipeline: Calibration-free dust radiative transfer postprocessing for cosmological simulations
The COLIBRE-SKIRT pipeline reproduces the observed low-redshift cosmic SED without calibrating the post-processing, using live dust from the simulation and a new 'split & scale' grain-size mapping.

The Stellar Mass Function of Gas-Rich Galaxies and the Underlying $M_{\rm HI}-M_{\rm star}$ Scaling Relation in the Local Universe
Gas-rich galaxies follow a single Schechter stellar mass function; abundance matching the HI and stellar mass functions yields a selection-corrected M_HI-M_star relation.

Weak Evolution of Cosmic Atomic Hydrogen over the Past 4.5 Billion Years
Combining FAST and DESI data for 2.5 million galaxies shows cosmic atomic hydrogen density declined by only a factor of 1.35 over 4.5 Gyr, far less than the 2.46-fold decline in star formation.

Thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich cross-correlations with unWISE galaxies: disentangling radio contamination, dust properties, and electron pressure
Radio contamination must be jointly fit with tSZ and CIB in unWISE-Planck/ACT cross-spectra; its inclusion yields positive signals to ℓ ≃ 6000 that match a two-parameter generalized NFW pressure profile.

The Edge-on Galaxies in the DESI survey (EGIDE): sample building and photometry
The EGIDE project releases a tenfold larger catalogue of edge-on galaxies with griz photometry, stellar masses, redshifts and star formation rates, finding that red-sequence galaxies are thicker than blue-cloud ones a...

Discovery of EP J175257.3-351923 as a Candidate Black Hole Low-Mass X-ray Binary
EP J175257.3-351923 is identified as a candidate black hole low-mass X-ray binary from its FRED outburst profile, persistent hard state, truncated disk spectrum with 217 keV cutoff, and high X-ray-to-optical ratio.

HI Observations of Baryon-Dominated Dwarf Galaxy Candidates
Resolved HI observations of six baryon-dominated dwarf galaxy candidates show four are dark-matter deficient with high baryon efficiency, two in isolated environments without tidal signs.

Modeling Gravitational Wave Bias from 3D Power Spectra of Spectroscopic Surveys
Using mock gravitational wave catalogs built from the SDSS DR7 galaxy survey, the clustering bias of GW sources is most sensitive to host stellar mass, secondarily to star formation rate, and nearly insensitive to met...

Multi-wavelength Constraints on the Transient EP250905a
EP250905a is best explained as a mildly off-axis structured-jet afterglow at z=2.714, possibly weakly magnified by a foreground galaxy at z=0.374.

Ageing and Quenching: Influence of Galaxy Environment and Nuclear Activity in Transition Stage
In SDSS galaxies at the transition stage, slow ageing is environment-dependent and sensitive to nuclear activity, while fast quenching shows no significant environmental dependence.
