We present evidence for the discovery of a protocluster of starburst galaxies (Lyα emitters, or LAEs) near the end of the epoch of reionization. The recent trend in the search for high-redshift protoclusters focuses on utilizing bias tracers, such as luminous starburst galaxies, as signposts of overdensities. Thus, we conducted a photometric

AM CVn binaries are a class of ultracompact, hydrogen-deficient binaries, each consisting of a white dwarf accreting helium-dominated material from a degenerate or semi-degenerate donor star. Of the 56 known systems, only Gaia14aae undergoes complete eclipses of its central white dwarf, allowing the parameters of its stellar components to be

We present a sample of 33 Balmer break galaxies (BBGs) selected as Hubble Space Telescope/F160W dropouts in the deepest CANDELS/GOODS fields (H ≳ 27.3 mag) but relatively bright in Spitzer/IRAC ([3.6], [4.5] 24.5 mag), implying red colors (median and quartiles: H-[3.6]> ={3.1}2.83.4 {mag}). Half of these BBGs are newly identified sources. Our

We provide homogeneous optical (UBVRI) and near-infrared (NIR, JHK) time series photometry for 254 cluster (ω Cen, M 4) and field RR Lyrae (RRL) variables. We ended up with more than 551 000 measurements, of which only 9% are literature data. For 94 fundamental (RRab) and 51 first overtones (RRc) we provide a complete optical/NIR characterization
