  • Rapid contraction of giant planets orbiting the 20-million-year-old star V1298 Tau
    Current theories of planetary evolution predict that infant giant planets have large radii and very low densities before they slowly contract to reach their final size after about several hundred million years 1,2. These theoretical expectations remain untested so far as the detection and characterization of very young planets is extremely

  • Probing the atmosphere of WASP-69 b with low- and high-resolution transmission spectroscopy
    Consideration of both low- and high-resolution transmission spectroscopy is key for obtaining a comprehensive picture of exoplanet atmospheres. In studies of transmission spectra, the continuum information is well established with low-resolution spectra, while the shapes of individual lines are best constrained with high-resolution observations. In

  • Probing Galaxy Evolution in Massive Clusters Using ACT and DES: Splashback as a Cosmic Clock
    We measure the projected number density profiles of galaxies and the splashback feature in clusters selected by the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect from the Advanced Atacama Cosmology Telescope (AdvACT) survey using galaxies observed by the Dark Energy Survey (DES). The splashback radius is consistent with CDM-only simulations and is located at ${2.4}_{

  • Preliminary analysis of the Hayabusa2 samples returned from C-type asteroid Ryugu
    C-type asteroids 1 are considered to be primitive small Solar System bodies enriched in water and organics, providing clues to the origin and evolution of the Solar System and the building blocks of life. C-type asteroid 162173 Ryugu has been characterized by remote sensing 2-7 and on-asteroid measurements 8,9 with Hayabusa2 (ref. 10). However, the

  • Planetary nebulae in Gaia EDR3: Central star identification, properties, and binarity
    Context. The Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3), published in December 2020, features improved photometry and astrometry compared to that published in the previous DR2 file and includes a substantially larger number of sources, of the order of 2000 million, making it a paradigm of big data astronomy. Many of the central stars of planetary nebulae
