Descripción
After our tentative detection of an optical counterpart to CXOU J010043.1-721134 from archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging, we have followed up with further images in four bands. Unfortunately, the source originally identified is not confirmed. We provide deep photometric limits in four bands and accurate photometry of field stars around the location of the magnetar.

Los agujeros negros y estrellas de neutrones en binarias de rayos-X son laboratorios únicos para explorar la física de estos objetos compactos. No solo permiten confirmar la existencia de agujeros negros de origen estelar a través de mediciones dinámicas de sus masas, sino que también permiten investigar el comportamiento de la materia y la

    We present time-resolved Gran Telescopio Canarias optical spectroscopy and William Herschel Telescope i-band photometry of the X-ray transient SWIFT J1753.5–0127 in quiescence. The i-band light curve is dominated by flickering with an amplitude of ∼0.5 mag and shows no evidence of the ellipsoidal modulation of the companion star. The telluric

    Context. The study of planetary nebulae (PNe) offers the opportunity to evaluate the efficiency of the dust production mechanism during the very late asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phases, which allows us to assess the role played by AGB stars as dust manufacturers. Aims. We studied the relationship between the properties of PNe, particularly the

    Context. AU Mic is a very active M dwarf star with an edge-on debris disk and two known transiting sub-Neptunes with a possible third planetary companion. The two transiting planets exhibit significant transit-timing variations (TTVs) that are caused by the gravi tational interaction between the bodies in the system. Aims. Using photometrical
