Extant interspecific hybridization among trematodes within the Schistosoma haematobium species complex in Nigeria. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical DiseasesBackgroundNatural interspecific hybridization between the human parasite (Schistosoma haematobium [Sh]) and bovine parasites (Schistosoma bovis [Sb], Schistosoma curassoni [Sc]) is increasingly reported in Africa.

The Apparent Tidal Decay of WASP-4 b Can Be Explained by the Rømer Effect
Universe, 2023 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.

Transiting Circumbinary Planets in the Era of Space-Based Photometric Surveys
Universe, 2023 Planets orbiting binary stars—circumbinary planets—play a paramount role in our understanding of planetary and stellar formation and evolution, dynamical interactions in many-body systems, and the potential for habitable environments beyond the Solar ...

One-Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks for Detecting Transiting Exoplanets
Axioms, 2023 The transit method is one of the most relevant exoplanet detection techniques, which consists of detecting periodic eclipses in the light curves of stars.

Orbital Period Refinement of CoRoT Planets with TESS Observations
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 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

Follow-Up Observations of PTFO 8-8695: A 3 MYr Old T-Tauri Star Hosting a Jupiter-mass Planetary Candidate [PDF]
, 2015 We present Spitzer 4.5\micron\ light curve observations, Keck NIRSPEC radial velocity observations, and LCOGT optical light curve observations of PTFO~8-8695, which may host a Jupiter-sized planet in a very short orbital period (0.45 days). Previous work

Eclipsing binary and white dwarf features associated with K2 target EPIC251248385 [PDF]
, 2019 White dwarfs, remnants of Sun-like stars which have completed their evolution, are one of the most common types of stars in space. Despite this, very few white dwarfs have been observed in transiting or eclipsing systems, and only two planetary systems ...
