Description
Cyg OB2 No. 5 (BD+40deg4220; V729 Cyg) is known to be a contact binary system formed by two O-type stars. For this object a 6-cm radio emission has been detected at the optical position as well as an additional weak non-thermal radio source located at ~ 0.9 arcsec to the north east of the contact binary. It has been suggested that this radio component was possibly a third stellar object in the system. This was the first time that a radio companion was observed to be associated with the contact binary system. In this work we present new radio, CCD and Hipparcos observations that provide the basis for a plausible explanation of the origin of the non-thermal radiation emitted by the `third' component of this system and its nature.

    Einasto Gravitational Potentials have Difficulty to Hold Spherically Symmetric Stellar Systems with Cores
    It was known that an ideal spherically symmetric stellar system with isotropic velocities and an inner core cannot reside in a Navarro, Frenk, and White (NFW) gravitational potential. The incompatibility can be pinned down to the radial gradient of the NFW potential in the very center of the system, which differs from zero. The gradient is

    The Aligned Orbit of a Hot Jupiter around the M Dwarf TOI-4201
    Measuring the obliquities of stars hosting giant planets may shed light on the dynamical history of planetary systems. Significant efforts have been made to measure the obliquities of FGK stars with hot Jupiters, mainly based on observations of the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect. In contrast, M dwarfs with hot Jupiters have hardly been explored because

    ROSALIA: ROman Sky Analyst for Low surface brightness Imaging & Astronomy
    Diffuse emission in the outskirts of galaxies, such as stellar tidal streams, galaxy stellar halos and intracluster light, provides important constraints on the structure and evolution of the Universe. However, such low surface brightness diffuse emission can be up to thousands of times dimmer (>29 AB mag/[square arcseconds]) than the sky
