Description
We present results from ongoing science projects conducted by members of the Faulkes Telescope (FT) team and Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT). Many of these projects incorporate observations carried out and analysed by FT users, comprising amateur astronomers and schools. We also discuss plans for the further development of the LCOGT network.

    The puzzle of isolated and quenched dwarf galaxies in cosmic voids
    We report, for the first time, the detection of a sample of quenched and isolated dwarf galaxies (with 8.9 < log(M ⋆/M ⊙) < 9.5) in the least dense regions of the cosmic web, including voids, filaments, and walls. These dwarfs have no neighboring galaxy within 1.0 Mpc in projected distance. Based on the full spectral fitting of their central

    Exploring spectropolarimetric inversions using neural fields: Solar chromospheric magnetic field under the weak-field approximation
    Context. Full-Stokes polarimetric datasets, originating from slit-spectrograph or narrow-band filtergrams, are routinely acquired nowadays. The data rate is increasing with the advent of bi-dimensional spectropolarimeters and observing techniques that allow long-time sequences of high-quality observations. There is a clear need to go beyond the

    Molecular gas stratification and disturbed kinematics in the Seyfert galaxy MCG-05-23-16 revealed by JWST and ALMA
    Understanding the processes that drive the morphology and kinematics of molecular gas in galaxies is crucial for comprehending star formation and, ultimately, galaxy evolution. Using data from the Galactic Activity, Torus and Outflow Survey (GATOS) obtained with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and the archival data from the Atacama Large
