Binary system delays and timing noise in searches for gravitational waves from known pulsars [PDF]
The majority of fast millisecond pulsars are in binary systems, so that any periodic signal they emit is modulated by both Doppler and relativistic effects.

Signal in Space Error and Ephemeris Validity Time Evaluation of Milena and Doresa Galileo Satellites
In August 2016, Milena (E14) and Doresa (E18) satellites started to broadcast ephemeris in navigation message for testing purposes. If these satellites could be used, an improvement in the position accuracy would be achieved.

The first observed stellar occultations by the irregular satellite Phoebe (Saturn IX) and improved rotational period [PDF]
peer reviewedWe report six stellar occultations by Phoebe (Saturn IX), an irregular satellite of Saturn, obtained between mid-2017 and mid-2019. The 2017 July 6 event was the first stellar occultation by an irregular satellite ever observed.

Galileo Single Point Positioning Assessment Including FOC Satellites in Eccentric Orbits
On August 2016, the Milena (E14) and Doresa (E18) satellites started to broadcast ephemeris in navigation message for testing purposes. As the Galileo constellation is not yet complete. It is very important to have two more satellites available since the

Five New Transits of the Super-Neptune HD 149026 [PDF]
We present new photometry of HD 149026 spanning five transits of its "super-Neptune" planet. In combination with previous data, we improve upon the determination of the planet-to-star radius ratio: R_p/R_star = 0.0491^{+0.0018}_{-0.0005}.
