We report the discovery of a new directly imaged brown-dwarf companion with Keck/NIRC2+pyWFS around a nearby mid-type M-dwarf LSPM J1446+4633 (hereafter J1446). The L ' -band contrast (4.5 × 10 ‑3) is consistent with a ∼20–60 M Jup object at 1–10 Gyr and our two-epoch NIRC2 data suggest a ∼30% (∼3.1σ) variability in its L ' -band flux. We

Context. Over the past 15 years, studies of quasars in the far-infrared (FIR) have reported host luminosities ranging from 10 12 to 10 14 L ⊙. These luminosities, often derived from Herschel/SPIRE photometry, suggest star formation rates (SFRs) of up to several thousand M ⊙ yr ‑1, positioning them among the most luminous starburst galaxies in the

We present very high-energy optical photometry and spectroscopic observations of SN 2024bch in the nearby galaxy NGC 3206 (∼20 Mpc). We used gamma-ray observations performed with the first Large-Sized Telescope (LST-1) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) and optical observations with the Liverpool Telescope (LT) combined with data
