Descripción
We present the scheme developed for the quick analysis and data quality checks on the MAGIC Cherenkov Telescope at La Palma. Due to its low energy threshold MAGIC acquires data of atmospheric showers at a rate of more than 200Hz, which translates in up to 700GB per night. A fast On-Site data reduction is needed to detect hardware problems and in many cases to decide on observation strategies. The data are automatically calibrated and pre-processed at the MAGIC site using automated scripts on multiprocessor systems. Check plots are generated, and first results are available in the morning. This system complements a quick online analysis which runs in parallel with the data acquisition.

    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

    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

    The molecular gas perspective on the growth and death of H emitters in the Spiderweb protocluster at Alpha z=2.16
    Galaxy clusters at low redshift are dominated by massive quiescent galaxies hosting stellar populations 10 Gyrs old, indicating that they were formed in the early universe when clusters were still in the process of being assembled (i.e., protoclusters). The rapid growth of galaxies within protoclusters is driven by the efficient transformation of
