Description
A Copernicus spectrum of the early-type supergiant Beta Ori, extending from 1010 to 1440 A with 0.2-A resolution and from 1710 to 3215 A with 0.4-A resolution, is described. Some 1137 absorption lines are identified, and equivalent widths and profiles are computed for selected features. It is found that: (1) the Ly-alpha line is the major feature over the entire spectrum; (2) 'metals' are mostly in the first and second state of ionization; and (3) only the resonance lines of Si III and Si IV are markedly blue-shifted by about 180 km/s, but there is no evidence of P Cyg profiles.

    Constraining the TeV gamma-ray emission of SN 2024bch, a possible type IIn-L from a red supergiant progenitor: Multiwavelength observations and analysis of the progenitor
    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

    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

    Transit timing variations in HIP 41378: CHEOPS and TESS confirm a non-transiting sixth planet in the system
    In multiple-planet systems, gravitational interactions of exoplanets could lead to transit timing variations (TTVs), whose amplitude becomes significantly enhanced when planets are in or near mean-motion resonances (MMRs), making them more easily detectable. In cases where both TTVs and radial velocity (RV) measurements are available, combined
