  • The S2 stream: the shreds of a primitive dwarf galaxy
    The S2 stream is a kinematically cold stream that is plunging downwards through the Galactic disc. It may be part of a hotter and more diffuse structure called the Helmi stream. We present a multi-instrument chemical analysis of the stars in the metal-poor S2 stream using both high- and low-resolution spectroscopy, complemented with a re-analysis

  • The principle of maximum entropy explains the cores observed in the mass distribution of dwarf galaxies
    Cold dark matter (CDM) simulations predict a central cusp in the mass distribution of galaxies. This prediction is in stark contrast with observations of dwarf galaxies that show a central plateau or "core" in their density distribution. The proposed solutions to this core-cusp problem can be classified into two types. One invokes feedback

  • The post-common-envelope binary central star of the planetary nebula PN G283.7-05.1. A possible post-red-giant-branch planetary nebula central star
    We present the discovery and characterisation of the post-common-envelope central star system in the planetary nebula PN G283.7-05.1. Deep images taken as part of the POPIPlaN survey indicate that the nebula may possess a bipolar morphology similar to other post-common-envelope planetary nebulae.

  • The Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager on Solar Orbiter
    Aims: This paper describes the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager on the Solar Orbiter mission (SO/PHI), the first magnetograph and helioseismology instrument to observe the Sun from outside the Sun-Earth line. It is the key instrument meant to address the top-level science question: How does the solar dynamo work and drive connections between

  • The irregular limb of Manoetius South Pole and Improved Orbital Solution (extended analysis)
    In 2033, after a 12-year trip across the Solar System, NASA's Lucy mission will arrive at the Patroclus─Menoetius binary system, in Jupiter's L5 cloud. On its way, Lucy will visit one asteroid and seven Jupiter Trojans, all of them primitive asteroids. Lucy's foreseen discoveries about the surface geology, color, and composition of these Trojans

  • The impact of dust attenuation laws on the stellar mass of galaxies ─ based on 170 million galaxies from HELP survey
    The Herschel Extragalactic Legacy Project (HELP) focused on the data from ESA's Herschel} mission, which covered around 1300~$\rm deg^2$ on the sky. HELP systematically combines data from 23 of the premier extragalactic survey fields. It compiles all the ancillary data that are available across the HELP fields into a catalogue with consistent
