Description
The analysis of the efficiency of accretion in the X-ray binary system A 0535 + 26/HDE 245770 and of the specific angular momentum of the matter accreted during its X-ray outbursts leads to the conclusion that there are two disks present in the system. An excretion disk around the Be star HDE 245770 and an accretion disk (possibly temporary) around the neutron star A 0535 + 26. The two failures of the pulsar to produce the expected X-ray outbursts in 1985-86 indicate that probably there exists a state in which the pulsar remains 'fast' (i.e., rotates faster than it would correspond to its instantaneous equilibrium period) during the whole orbital cycle, including the periastron passages.

    An ultra-short-period super-Earth with an extremely high density and an outer companion
    We present the discovery and characterization of a new multi-planetary system around the Sun-like star K2-360 (EPIC 201595106). K2-360 was first identified in K2 photometry as the host of an ultra-short-period (USP) planet candidate with a period of 0.88 d. We obtained follow-up transit photometry, confirming the star as the host of the signal

    Dehydrogenation, polymerization and self-assembly in the inhibition of copper surfaces by an ultrathin imidazole film
    Here we present a joint experimental-theoretical study on the deposition of imidazole molecules on a Cu(100) surface. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) have been carried out on samples prepared upon deposition of sublimated imidazole molecules in ultra-high vacuum (UHV).

    Constraints on VHE gamma-ray emission of flat spectrum radio quasars with the MAGIC telescopes
    Flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) constitute a class of jetted active galaxies characterized by a very luminous accretion disc, prominent and rapidly moving line-emitting cloud structures (broad-line region, BLR), and a surrounding dense dust structure known as dusty torus. The intense radiation field of the accretion disc strongly determines the
