    The DES view of the Eridanus supervoid and the CMB cold spot
    The Cold Spot is a puzzling large-scale feature in the Cosmic Microwave Background temperature maps and its origin has been subject to active debate. As an...

    The discovery of a very cool binary system
    We report the discovery of a very cool d/sdL7+T7.5p common proper motion binary system, SDSS J1416+13AB, found by cross-matching the United Kingdom Infrared...

    The discovery of an M4+T8.5 binary system
    We report the discovery of a T8.5 dwarf, which is a companion to the M4 dwarf Wolf 940. At a distance of 12.50+0.75-0.67 pc, the angular separation of 32 arcsec...

    The EDGE-CALIFA survey: exploring the role of molecular gas on galaxy star formation quenching
    Understanding how galaxies cease to form stars represents an outstanding challenge for galaxy evolution theories. This process of "star formation quenching" has...

    The effect of environment on Type Ia supernovae in the Dark Energy Survey three-year cosmological sample
    Analyses of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have found puzzling correlations between their standardized luminosities and host galaxy properties: SNe Ia in high-mass...

    The effects of galaxy formation on the matter power spectrum: a challenge for precision cosmology
    Upcoming weak lensing surveys, such as LSST, EUCLID and WFIRST, aim to measure the matter power spectrum with unprecedented accuracy. In order to fully exploit...
