Faint White Dwarf Flux Standards: Data and Models

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Fainter standard stars are essential for the calibration of larger telescopes. This work adds to the calibration spectra (CALSPEC) database of 19 faint white dwarfs (WDs) with all-sky coverage and V magnitudes between 16.5 and 18.7.

Radio Pulse Power Distribution of Lightning in Jupiter's 2021–2022 Stealth Superstorms

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Surveys and observations of lightning on Jupiter prior to the NASA Juno mission used night‐side imaging approaches, and a common conclusion was that the optical energy was similar to the highest energy terrestrial lightning flashes, or superbolts.

Echoes in the Noise: Posterior Samples of Faint Galaxy Surface Brightness Profiles with Score-based Likelihoods and Priors

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Examining the detailed structure of galaxy populations provides valuable insights into their formation and evolution mechanisms. Significant barriers to such analysis are the nontrivial noise properties of real astronomical images and the point-spread ...

Massive Star Formation in the Ultraviolet Observed with the Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
Spectroscopic observations of a massive star formation in the ultraviolet and their interpretation are reviewed. After a brief historical retrospective, two well-studied resolved star clusters and the surrounding H II regions are introduced: NGC 2070 in ...

Characterization of the Outer Uranian Rings in the Visual and Near‐IR Using Keck, JWST, and HST Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract We present observations of the Uranian outer ring system at near‐infrared and visible wavelengths. Observations with the Keck Telescope were taken in July‐August 2007 at 2.12 and 1.63 μm, when the ring plane was almost edge‐on (ring opening angle B=0.62 $B=0.62$–0.24° ${}^{\circ}$). These data showed, for the first time, the μ ring at infrared

Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1983
The Space Telescope, scheduled for launch aboard the Space Shuttle in 1986, has been renamed the Edwin P. Hubble Space Telescope, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) announced. The orbiting optical astronomical observatory will carry a 2.4‐m mirror and five scientific instruments that will be able to look into space 7 times farther
