We present the results of band 3, 6, and 7 ALMA observations obtained of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) in MACS 1931.8-2635 over the course of Cycles 4 and 5. MACS 1931 is a massive (M500 = ˜5 x 1014 M⊙) cool-core galaxy cluster in the Cluster Lensing and Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) with the most actively star-forming BCG in the sample

Kepler-730 is a planetary system hosting a statistically validated hot Jupiter in a 6.49 day orbit and an additional transiting candidate in a 2.85 day orbit. We use spectroscopic radial velocities from the APOGEE-2N instrument, Robo-AO contrast curves, and Gaia distance estimates to statistically validate the planetary nature of the additional

We report the independent discovery and characterization of two K2 planets: K2-180b, a mini-Neptune-sized planet in an 8.9-d orbit transiting a V = 12.6 mag, metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -0.65 ± 0.10) K2V star in K2 campaign 5; K2-140b, a transiting hot Jupiter in a 6.6-d orbit around a V = 12.6 mag G6V ([Fe/H] = + 0.10 ± 0.10) star in K2 campaign 10. Our

The bulk of stars in galaxy clusters are confined within their constituent galaxies. Those stars do not trace the extended distribution of dark matter well as they are located in the central regions of the cluster's dark matter subhaloes. A small fraction of stars is expected, however, to follow the global dark matter shape of the cluster. These

Double bars are thought to be important features for secular evolution in the central regions of galaxies. However, observational evidence about their origin and evolution is still scarce. We report on the discovery of the first Box/Peanut (B/P) structure in an inner bar detected in the face-on galaxy NGC 1291. We use the integral field data

Recent observations have shown in some sunspots the presence of structures that have been called umbral filaments (UFs). These consist of bright filamentary features intruding sunspot umbrae, different in morphology, evolution, and magnetic configuration from usually observed light bridges. We report on the properties of an UF observed inside the
