Descripción
We have examined the wind momentum problem of O-type stars in the Galaxy. It is shown that the discrepancy between theoretical and empirical mass loss rates and terminal velocities can be reversed by using recently updated values of force multiplier parameters. With these new values, the momentum problem found by former investigators is reversed so that there now appears to be more than enough radiation force in order to accelerate the stellar winds of a sample of Galactic O-type stars.

    Reconnaissance ultracool spectra in the Euclid Deep Fields
    Context. The Euclid spacecraft has been launched and will carry out a deep survey benefiting the discovery and characterisation of ultracool dwarfs (UCDs), especially in the Euclid Deep Fields (EDFs), which the telescope will scan repeatedly throughout its mission. The photometric and spectroscopic standards in the EDFs are important benchmarks

    TOI-837 b is a young Saturn-sized exoplanet with a massive 70 M<SUB>⊕</SUB> core
    We present an exhaustive photometric and spectroscopic analysis of TOI-837, a F9/G0 35 Myr young star, hosting a transiting exoplanet, TOI-837 b, with an orbital period of ~8.32 d. Utilizing data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and ground-based observations, we determine a planetary radius of $0.818_{-0.024}^{+0.034}$ R J for TOI-837

    MUSE view of PDS 456: Kiloparsec-scale wind, extended ionized gas, and close environment
    PDS 456 is the most luminous (L bol ∼ 10 47 erg s −1) radio-quiet quasar at z < 0.3 and can be regarded as a local counterpart of the powerful quasars shining at Cosmic Noon. It hosts a strong nuclear X-ray ultra-fast (∼0.3c) outflow, and a massive and clumpy CO (3-2) molecular outflow extending up to ∼5 kpc from the nucleus. We analyzed the first
