A new tidal scenario for double bar formation
Double bars make up a significant fraction of barred galaxies. We propose a new formation scenario for double bars that involves tidal interactions. We...
A new VLA/e-MERLIN limit on central images in the gravitational lens system CLASS B1030+074
We present the new Very Large Array 22 GHz and extended Multi-Element Remote-Linked Interferometer Network 5 GHz observations of CLASS B1030+074, a two-image...
A NICER look at the state transitions of the black hole candidate MAXI J1535-571 during its reflares
The black hole candidate and X-ray binary MAXI J1535-571 was discovered in 2017 September. During the decay of its discovery outburst, and before returning to...
A novel black hole mass scaling relation based on coronal gas, and its dependence with the accretion disc
Using bona-fide black hole (BH) mass estimates from reverberation mapping and the line ratio [Si VI] 1.963$\rm{\mu m}$/Brγ broad as tracer of the AGN ionizing...
A nuclear grand-design spiral within the normal disc spiral of NGC 5248
We report the discovery of trailing grand-design nuclear spiral structure in the spiral galaxy NGC 5248. Two tightly wound red spiral arms, with widths less...
A numerical study of interactions and stellar bars
For several decades, it has been known that stellar bars in disc galaxies can be triggered by interactions, or by internal processes such as dynamical...
A pair of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright K-dwarf TOI-1064 characterized with CHEOPS
We report the discovery and characterization of a pair of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright K-dwarf TOI-1064 (TIC 79748331), initially detected in the...
A photometric analysis of Abell 1689: two-dimensional multistructure decomposition, morphological classification and the Fundamental Plane
We present a photometric analysis of 65 galaxies in the rich cluster Abell 1689 at z = 0.183, using the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys...
A photometric study of globular clusters observed by the APOGEE survey
In this paper, we describe the photometric and spectroscopic properties of multiple populations in seven northern globular clusters. In this study, we employ...
