Spatially resolved kinematics of an ultracompact dwarf galaxy

, 2011
We present the internal kinematics of UCD3, the brightest known ultracompact dwarf galaxy (UCD) in the Fornax cluster, making this the first UCD with spatially resolved spectroscopy.

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4126-4139, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Mapping the Stellar Kinematics in the Central 240 pc of M87 with the James Webb Space Telescope

The Astrophysical Journal
The supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the giant elliptical galaxy M87 is one of the most well studied in the local Universe, but the stellar- and gas-dynamical SMBH mass measurements disagree.

The ORCA‐TWIN qCMOS Experiment I. Science Case and Commissioning at Calar Alto Observatory

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 7, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We describe a pilot study to explore a new generation of fast and low noise CMOS image sensors for time domain astronomy, using two remote telescopes with a baseline of 1635 km. The experiment involves direct imaging with novel qCMOS image sensor technology that combines fast readout with sub‐electron readout noise.

The AURORA Survey: Tracing Galactic Outflows at z ≳ 2.5 with JWST/NIRSpec Near-ultraviolet Absorption Lines

The Astrophysical Journal
We probe galactic-scale outflows in star-forming galaxies at z  ≳ 2.5 drawn from the JWST/NIRSpec AURORA program. For the first time, we directly compare outflow properties from the early Universe to the present day using near-UV absorption lines.

Latitude Survey of Neutrons and Muons to Determine Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing Yield Functions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) is a ground‐based technique that utilizes epithermal neutron measurements as a proxy for environmental hydrogen content. Similarly to other ground‐based cosmic ray detectors (e.g., neutron monitors), CRNS detectors are affected by the solar cycle and space weather events.

Projection effects in barred galaxies cause the wrong interpretation of radial flows

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Galaxy disks in rotation are sometimes the site of radial flows, especially in their gas component. It is important to estimate the outflows, due to active galactic nucleus or supernovae feedback, or the inflows, due to bar gravity torques.

Distribution and Kinematics of Classical Cepheids in the Galactic Outer Ring

Open Astronomy, 2015
The existence of an outer ring in the Galaxy can explain the kinematics of OB associations in the Perseus and Sagittarius stellar-gas complexes. Moreover, it can also explain the orientation of the Carina arm with respect to the major axis of the bar. We

Ground‐Based Solar Radio Observations From the Mexican e‐Callisto Stations During the May 2024 Extreme Space Weather Events

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
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 ...
