Purpose: From April 2017, a monitoring program of observations has been started at the RT-16 telescope of Ventspils Radio Astronomy Center (frequencies 5, 6.1, 6.7, 8.4 GHz) to study the intraday and interdiurnal variability of extragalactic radio ...

An Outsider’s View of Extragalactic Infrared Astronomy [PDF]
No one could be more of an outsider to infrared astronomy than myself. Like all outsiders, one forms preconceived notions about disciplines outside one's own speciality. In my own case, I can summarise these under three headings.

Long-term future of extragalactic astronomy [PDF]
If the current energy density of the universe is indeed dominated by a cosmological constant, then high-redshift sources will remain visible to us only until they reach some finite age in their rest-frame. The radiation emitted beyond that age will never reach us due to the acceleration of the cosmic expansion rate, and so we will never know what these

Extragalactic stellar astronomy with the brightest stars in the universe [PDF]
AbstractA supergiants are objects in transition from the blue to the red (and vice versa) in the uppermost HRD. They are the intrinsically brightest “normal” stars at visual light with absolute visual magnitudes up to −9. They are ideal to study young stellar populations in galaxies beyond the Local Group to determine chemical composition and evolution,

Highlights from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory [PDF]
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has been collecting data for more than a decade. During this time, it has heralded the birth of neutrino astronomy with the discovery of the astrophysical neutrino flux.

Abstract The period from 1 to 14 May 2024 was marked by some of the most intense solar activity of Solar Cycle 25, including multiple X‐class flares, fast coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and diverse solar radio emissions. We present observations from the Mexican e‐Callisto network (REC‐Mx), including long‐duration continuum emissions (CTMs), Type II ...

Can Fractal Dimension Distinguish between Grand-design and Flocculent Spiral Arms?
About two-thirds of disk galaxies host spiral arms, ranging from well-delineated grand-design spirals to fragmented flocculent spiral galaxies. We introduce fractal dimension D _B as a nonparametric measure to distinguish between grand-designs and ...

The Kinematic Bimodality: Efficient Feedback and Cold Gas Deficiency in Slow-rotating Galaxies
The bimodality in the stellar spin of low-redshift (massive) galaxies, ubiquitously existing at all star formation levels and in diverse environments, suggests that galaxies grow and quench through two diverged evolutionary pathways.

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

It is not straightforward to physically interpret the apparent morphology of galaxies. Recent observations by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) revealed a dominant galaxy population at high redshifts ( z > 2) that were visually classified as disks ...
