Stellar clusters form by gravitational collapse of turbulent molecular clouds, with up to several thousand stars per cluster1. They are thought to be the...

Aims: We develop an accurate and general semi-classical formalism that deals with the definition and the calculation of the collisional depolarizing constants...

We present our shape and rotational characterization of four near-Earth asteroids observed as part of the Visible NEAs Observations Survey. This work includes...

Context. Basaltic V-type asteroids play a crucial role in studies of Solar System evolution and planetesimal formation. Comprehensive studies of their physical...

Proximity observations by OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa2 provided clues on the shape evolution processes of the target asteroids, (101955) Bennu and (162173) Ryugu...

Secular evolution is one of the key routes through which galaxies evolve along the Hubble sequence. Not only does the disc undergo morphological and kinematic...

Context. Classical bulges in spiral galaxies are known to rotate, but the origin of this observed rotational motion is not well understood. It has been shown...

Context. We need to understand the spin evolution of massive stars to compute their internal rotation-induced mixing processes, isolate effects of close binary...

In this paper, we report the potential detection of a nonmonotonic radial rotation profile in a low-mass lower-luminosity giant star. For most low- and...
