APOGEE view of the globular cluster NGC 6544
The second phase of the APOGEE survey is providing near-infrared (near-IR), high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectra of stars in the halo, disc, bar, and...
Apostle-Auriga: effects of different subgrid models on the baryon cycle around Milky Way-mass galaxies
Modern hydrodynamical simulations reproduce many properties of the real Universe. These simulations model various physical processes, but many of these are...
Apparent correlation between extrinsic and intrinsic flux variations in the first gravitationally lensed quasar
To better understand which sources contribute to optical passband fluxes of Q0957+561, we present and analyse light curves of the doubly imaged gravitationally...
Appearances can be deceiving: clear signs of accretion in the seemingly ordinary Sextans dSph
We report the discovery of clear observational signs of past accretion/merger events in one of the Milky Way satellite galaxies, the Sextans dwarf spheroidal...
Aquila X-1: a low-inclination soft X-ray transient
We have obtained I-band photometry of the neutron star X-ray transient Aql X-1 during quiescence. We find a periodicity at 2.487 cycles d^-1, which we interpret...
We present a spectral analysis of a sample of red-sequence galaxies identified by van Dokkum as dry merger remnants and ongoing dry mergers. Kinematics, stellar...
Are extreme asymptotic giant branch stars post-common envelope binaries?
Modelling dust formation in single stars evolving through the carbon-star stage of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) reproduces well the mid-infrared colours...
Are luminous radio-loud active galactic nuclei triggered by galaxy interactions?
We present the results of a comparison between the optical morphologies of a complete sample of 46 southern 2 Jy radio galaxies at intermediate redshifts (0.05...
Are Q-stars a serious threat for stellar-mass black hole candidates?
We examine the status of the threat posed to stellar-mass black hole candidates by the possible existence of Q-stars (compact objects with an exotic equation of...
