Galactic reddening in 3D from stellar photometry – an improved map [PDF]
We present a new 3D map of interstellar dust reddening, covering three quarters of the sky (declinations of δ ≳ −30°) out to a distance of several kiloparsecs. The map is based on high-quality stellar photometry of 800 million stars from Pan-STARRS 1 and

Fixing the U-band photometry of Type Ia supernovae [PDF]
We present previously unpublished photometry of supernovae 2003gs and 2003hv. Using spectroscopically-derived corrections to the U-band photometry, we reconcile U-band light curves made from imagery with the Cerro Tololo 0.9-m, 1.3-m and Las Campanas 1-m

The fourth data release of the Kilo-Degree Survey: ugri imaging and nine-band optical-IR photometry over 1000 square degrees [PDF]
Context. The Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) is an ongoing optical wide-field imaging survey with the OmegaCAM camera at the VLT Survey Telescope, specifically designed for measuring weak gravitational lensing by galaxies and large-scale structure.

Massive Stars as the Radiant Queens of the Universe—The Case of ζ Puppis
Since the Cosmic Dawn, massive stars have been playing a crucial role as the chemical recycling engines of galaxies that enable the birth of new stars and planetary systems, not only through the strong winds that they exhibit during their relatively ...

The CANDELS/SHARDS Multiwavelength Catalog in GOODS-N: Photometry, Photometric Redshifts, Stellar Masses, Emission-line Fluxes, and Star Formation Rates [PDF]
We present a WFC3 F160W (H-band) selected catalog in the CANDELS/GOODS-N field containing photometry from the ultraviolet (UV) to the far-infrared (IR), photometric redshifts, and stellar parameters derived from the analysis of the multiwavelength data ...

The level of photometry is the basic level of the Hungarian galaxy [PDF]
The photometric and fundamental plane for a sample of early type galaxies(elliptical and lenticular galaxies) which belongs to Virgo cluster have been calculated by fitting the Sersic model ( r1/n-model) to the surface brightness profiles along the major

The Apparent Tidal Decay of WASP-4 b Can Be Explained by the Rømer Effect
Tidal orbital decay plays a vital role in the evolution of hot Jupiter systems. As of now, this has only been observationally confirmed for the WASP-12 system.

Identification of the Mixing Ratios of Beer-Mixed Beverages by UV/VIS Spectroscopy
UV/VIS spectroscopy was used in conjunction with a calibration method to determine the mixing ratio of samples of beer-mixed drinks with mineral water (sour Radler beers) from the food service industry.
