Orbital period change of Dimorphos due to the DART kinetic impact. [PDF]
The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft successfully performed the first test of a kinetic impactor for asteroid deflection by impacting Dimorphos, the secondary of near-Earth binary asteroid (65803) Didymos, and changing the orbital ...

A possible solution of the puzzling variation of the orbital period of MXB 1659-298 [PDF]
MXB 1659-298 is a transient neutron star Low-Mass X-ray binary system that shows eclipses with a periodicity of 7.1 hr. The source went to outburst in August 2015 after 14 years of quiescence.

Detached cataclysmic variables are crossing the orbital period gap [PDF]
A central hypothesis in the theory of cataclysmic variable (CV) evolution is the need to explain the observed lack of accreting systems in the ~2-3 h orbital period range, known as the period gap.

Discovery of orbital eccentricity and evidence for orbital period increase of SS433 [PDF]
The examination of long-term (1979–2020) photometric observations of SS433 enabled us to discover a non-zero orbital eccentricity of e = 0.05 ± 0.01. We have also found evidence for a secular increase in the orbital period at a rate of $\dot{P}_\mathrm{

On Langmuir’s periodic orbit [PDF]
Niels Bohr successfully predicted in 1913 the energy levels for the hydrogen atom by applying certain quantization rules to classically obtained periodic orbits. Many physicists tried to apply similar methods to other atoms. In his well-known 1921 paper, I.~Langmuir established numerically the existence of a periodic orbit in the helium atom considered

An 8.8 Minute Orbital Period Eclipsing Detached Double White Dwarf Binary [PDF]
We report the discovery of ZTF J2243+5242, an eclipsing double white dwarf binary with an orbital period of just 8.8 minutes, the second known eclipsing binary with an orbital period of less than 10 minutes.

Orbital Period Refinement of CoRoT Planets with TESS Observations
CoRoT was the first space mission dedicated to exoplanet detection. Operational between 2007 and 2012, this mission discovered 37 transiting planets, including CoRoT-7b, the first terrestrial exoplanet with a measured size. The precision of the published
