Description
We report some recent of the Tenerife experiments. On a strip at Dec = +40° we have identified structure in the microwave sky at several frequencies. Clear evidence is found for a feature centred at RA 185° with a peak amplitude of 80 K. A statistical analysis of the data at this declination reveals the presence of signal at an rms of 42 ± 9 K. Assuming a model of a Harrison-Zeldovich spectrum of fluctuations, we infer an expected quadrupole term of 25-7+9 K. The radiometers are now observing adjacent bands of the sky separated 2.5 degrees in declination; some of the preliminary results obtained in these adjacent scans are discussed.

    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

    Counting stars from the integrated spectra of galaxies
    Over the last few decades, evolutionary population synthesis models have powered an unmatched leap forward in our understanding of galaxies. From dating the age of the first galaxies in the Universe to providing detailed measurements of the chemical composition of nearby galaxies, the success of this approach built upon simple stellar population

    Model-based identification of solar coronal mass ejections using deep neural networks
    Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are a major driver of space weather and thus can have important negative technological and social impacts. To assess their geoeffectiveness once they are ejected, it is crucial their prompt identification in coronagraph images. In the last decade, deep neural networks (DNN) have experienced enormous improvements in
