Descripción
NGC 2841 has been mapped in the J and K near-infrared bands out to some 10 kpc from its center. Maps and radial profiles in micron(J), micron(K) and J-K are presented, and profiles in B-J and B-K derived. The bulge and disk are very well distinguished, but there is also an indication of a bluer ring in the disk between 2 and 7 kpc galactrocentric distance. This is accentuated when an improved technique for calibrating intragalactic dust reddening, based on H I and H surface densities is applied. This annular region of enhanced star formation rate coincides with the presence of an enhanced H2 distribution, derived from CO measurements by Young and Scoville (1982).

    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

    Neural calibration of imaging Stokes polarimeters
    Current polarimetric calibration techniques derive the instrument modulation matrix by numerically fitting an instrumental model to measurements of a set of calibration Stokes vectors. These techniques are typically limited to an error on the retrieved normalized Stokes Q, U and V parameters, in the $1\times10^{-2}$ to $1\times10^{-3}$ range. This

    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
