Ultra-diffuse galaxies, an extreme type of dwarf galaxy, have been the focus of extensive observational and theoretical studies over the past decade. With stellar masses comparable to dwarf galaxies (between 10 7 and 10 9 solar masses) but much larger in size (as defined by their effective radius), they exhibit an extremely low surface brightness. These galaxies display highly diverse properties: some have large dark matter halos, others lack them, and their number of globular clusters varies widely. Studies of their kinematics and stellar populations have shown that these extreme galaxies

Type 2 quasars (QSO2s) are active galactic nuclei (AGN) seen through a significant amount of dust and gas that obscures the central supermassive black hole and the broad-line region. Here, we present new mid-infrared spectra of the central kiloparsec of five optically selected QSO2s at redshift z ∼ 0.1 obtained with the Medium Resolution Spectrometer module of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) aboard the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). These QSO2s belong to the Quasar Feedback (QSOFEED) sample, and they have bolometric luminosities of log L bol  = 45.5 to 46.0 erg s −1 , global star

Light bridges are elongated and bright structures protruding into the umbra of sunspots. The presence of light bridges has a significant role in the evolution of sunspots and the heating of their overlying atmosphere. Therefore, investigating these structures is crucial to understanding fundamental aspects of sunspots. By applying a novel code based on deep-learning algorithms called SICON to spectropolarimetric observations acquired with the Hinode satellite, we computed atmospheric parameters that allowed us to infer the variation of the physical properties of light bridges on a geometric
