Description
Since the discovery of the first extrasolar planet 51 Pegb [1] more than 190 extrasolar planets have been detected in orbit around other stars by means of precise stellar radial velocity (RV) measurements. But all RV surveys are concentrating almost entirely on solar-type stars covering only a narrow spectral and stellar mass range (spectral type F8-K1, 0.7-1.3 M &sun;) and up to now only six substellar companions around the intermediate mass stars HD 47536 [2], HD 104985 [3], γ Cep [4], HD 11977 [5], HD 13189 [6], and β Gem [7] have been identified. Interestingly, all these planets have masses of several Jupiter masses.

    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

    A Systematic Search for and Characterization of White Dwarf Binaries Across the H-R Diagram
    White dwarfs (WDs) are the endpoint of evolution for 97% of stars. Most of these stars are in multiple systems, and a significant fraction of those are compact enough to exchange mass, altering the structures and subsequent evolution of both stars. The physical mechanisms that facilitate these mass exchanges include common envelope evolution, Roche

    Deep HST Imaging Favors the Bulgeless Edge-on Galaxy Explanation for the Hypothetical Stellar Wake Created by a Runaway Supermassive Black Hole
    A long linear structure recently discovered could be the stellar wake produced by the passage of a runaway supermassive black hole (SMBH) or, alternatively, a bulgeless edge-on galaxy. We report on new very deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging that seems to be in tension with the SMBH runaway scenario but is consistent with the bulgeless edge-on
