Description
In the (logR_e_, μ_e_) plane defined by the logarithm of the effective radius and the effective surface brightness, elliptical galaxies that are members of Hickson's compact groups turn out to belong to the bright family, thus suggesting that most of them have likely experiences subtantial secondary evolution.

    MUSE view of PDS 456: Kiloparsec-scale wind, extended ionized gas, and close environment
    PDS 456 is the most luminous (L bol ∼ 10 47 erg s −1) radio-quiet quasar at z < 0.3 and can be regarded as a local counterpart of the powerful quasars shining at Cosmic Noon. It hosts a strong nuclear X-ray ultra-fast (∼0.3c) outflow, and a massive and clumpy CO (3-2) molecular outflow extending up to ∼5 kpc from the nucleus. We analyzed the first

    TOI-837 b is a young Saturn-sized exoplanet with a massive 70 M<SUB>⊕</SUB> core
    We present an exhaustive photometric and spectroscopic analysis of TOI-837, a F9/G0 35 Myr young star, hosting a transiting exoplanet, TOI-837 b, with an orbital period of ~8.32 d. Utilizing data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and ground-based observations, we determine a planetary radius of $0.818_{-0.024}^{+0.034}$ R J for TOI-837

    Changing Look of the Optical Spectrum of the MeV Blazar PKS 0446+112 (4FGL J0449.1+1121)
    Following the high activity of the γ-ray Fermi source 4FGL J0449.1+1121 (PKS 0446+112), possibly associated with a IceCube neutrino event IC-240105A, we obtained optical spectroscopy with the Gran Telescopio Canarias of the counterpart. We detect a clear emission line at 3830 Å identified as Lyα that confirms the redshift of source at z = 2.153
