New opacity distribution functions (ODFs) for several metallicities have been computed. The main improvements upon previous ODFs computed by Kurucz (1990) are: (1) the replacement of the solar abundances from Anders & Grevesse (1989) with those from Grevesse & Sauval (1998); (2) the replacement of the TiO lines provided by Kurucz (1993) with the TiO lines from Schwenke (1998), as distributed by Kurucz (1999a); (3) the addition of the H2O lines from Partridge & Schwenke (1997) as distributed by Kurucz (1999b); (4) the addition of the HI-HI and HI-H+ quasi-molecular absorptions near 1600 A and 1400 A computed according to Allard et al. (1998). Other minor improvements are related with some changes in a few atomic and molecular data. New grids of ATLAS9 model atmospheres for Teff from 3500K to 50000K and logg from 0.0 dex to 5.0 dex have been computed for several metallicities with the new ODFs. Preliminary comparisons of the results from the old and new models have shown differences in the energy distributions of stars cooler than 4500K, in the ultraviolet energy distribution of metal-poor A-type stars, in the U-B and u-b color indices for Teff<7000K and in all the color indices for Teff<4250K.

    astro-ph.SR 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    High-resolution interferometric imaging of eight post-AGB circumbinary discs reveals diverse inner-rim substructures including azimuthal brightness enhancements and arc-like features not explained by inclination alone.

  2. The Close Binary V486 Carinae

    V486 Car is a near-contact binary with component masses 2.1 and 0.4 solar masses, radii 3.2 and 1.48 solar radii, temperatures 10000 K and 6200 K, plus evidence for a ~0.3 solar mass companion at a few AU.

  3. Spectral Disentangling Reveals Deep CNO-cycle Exposure in ET Cru

    astro-ph.SR 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Spectral disentangling of ET Cru yields masses of 13.41 and 6.00 solar masses with 1.3% precision and shows the secondary has severe CNO-cycle chemical anomalies exceeding typical Algol systems.

    astro-ph.SR 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Tertiary in EM Boo is A-F type with Teff=7000K; system distance ~300 pc indicates Gaia DR3 underestimates true distance due to multiplicity.

    astro-ph.SR 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    The first NIR high-resolution spectroscopy of solar analog HD115617 shows a 250 K temperature discrepancy with optical data but confirms solar composition, main-sequence status, and no chemical signature of planetary ...

  6. A tidally detached super Neptune on a strongly misaligned retrograde orbit

    astro-ph.EP 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    TOI-1710 b has a true obliquity of 149 degrees indicating retrograde motion, favoring high-eccentricity migration via planet-planet scattering and Kozai-Lidov cycles for this tidally detached super-Neptune.

  7. Revisiting Ca II Activity Indices in FGK Stars: Systematic Biases in Infrared Triplet Measurements

    astro-ph.SR 2026-04 accept novelty 5.0

    Negative Ca II IRT residual indices in FGK stars arise mainly because synthetic photospheric templates miss chromospheric structure and NLTE effects that deepen the observed cores.

  8. The neighboring stars of N6946-BH1 and the observational characteristics of failed supernovae

    astro-ph.SR 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    N6946-BH1's remnant is roughly 10 times fainter than its progenitor while stellar merger remnants are 10-100 times brighter, and asymmetric dust cannot explain the difference.

    astro-ph.SR 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Rotation produces only modest changes to blue loop luminosity and extent in MESA Cepheid models and cannot fix the mass discrepancy without substantial main-sequence overshooting.

    Non-LTE wind atmosphere models computed with CMFGEN reproduce the SED and Balmer decrement of most Little Red Dots when dust-attenuated with Av ~2, while predicting Fe II, O I, and Ca lines, but struggle to produce bo...
