A targeted search for Main Belt Comets
Main Belt Comets (MBCs) exhibit sublimation-driven activity while occupying asteroid-like orbits in the Main Asteroid Belt. MBCs and candidates show stronger...
A targeted search for strongly lensed supernovae with the Las Cumbres Observatory
Gravitationally lensed supernovae (glSNe) are of interest for time delay cosmology and SN physics. However, glSNe detections are rare, owing to the intrinsic...
A test for asymptotic giant branch evolution theories: planetary nebulae in the Large Magellanic Cloud
We used a new generation of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stellar models that include dust formation in the stellar winds to find the links between evolutionary...
A tidally tilted sectoral dipole pulsation mode in the eclipsing binary TIC 63328020
We report the discovery of the third tidally tilted pulsator, TIC 63328020. Observations with the TESS satellite reveal binary eclipses with an orbital period...
A TiO study of the black hole binary GRO J0422+32 in a very low state
We present 53 simultaneous photometric (I band) and spectroscopic (6900-9500Å) observations of GRO J0422+32, taken during 1997 December. From these we determine...
A tool to separate optical/infrared disc and jet emission in X-ray transient outbursts: the colour-magnitude diagrams of XTE J1550-564
It is now established that thermal disc emission and non-thermal jet emission can both play a role at optical/infrared (OIR) wavelengths in X-ray transients...
A transit timing variation observed for the long-period extremely low-density exoplanet HIP 41378 f
HIP 41378 f is a temperate 9.2 ± 0.1 R ⊕ planet with period of 542.08 d and an extremely low density of 0.09 ± 0.02 g cm -3. It transits the bright star HIP...
A transiting M-dwarf showing beaming effect in the field of Ruprecht 147
We report the discovery and characterization of an eclipsing M5Vdwarf star, orbiting a slightly evolved F7V main sequence star. In contrast to previous claims...
A transiting super-Earth close to the inner edge of the habitable zone of an M0 dwarf star
We present a super-Earth orbiting close to the inner edge of the habitable zone of the cool dwarf star K2-286 (EPIC 249889081), detected with data from the K2...
