Description
Thirty Seyfert galaxies have been studied for bright sources. The photometry is reported and three of the more unusual galaxies (Mrk 705, Mrk 817, and Mrk 1095) are individually discussed. It is confirmed that infrared emission in excess of the stellar contribution is commonplace in Seyfert galaxies. Attention is drawn to the J-K colors of the galaxies which are generally redder for the Type I Seyferts than the Type II's. This can be explained either thermally or nonthermally.

    The double low-mass white dwarf eclipsing binary system J2102-4145 and its possible evolution
    In recent years, about 150 low-mass white dwarfs (WDs), typically with masses below 0.4 M ⊙, have been discovered. The majority of these low-mass WDs are observed in binary systems as they cannot be formed through single-star evolution within Hubble time. In this work, we present a comprehensive analysis of the double low-mass WD eclipsing binary

    Discovery of two warm mini-Neptunes with contrasting densities orbiting the young K3V star TOI-815
    We present the discovery and characterization of two warm mini-Neptunes transiting the K3V star TOI-815 in a K-M binary system. Analysis of its spectra and rotation period reveal the star to be young, with an age of 200 −200 +400 Myr. TOI-8l5b has a 11.2-day period and a radius of 2.94 ± 0.05 R ⊕ with transits observed by TESS, CHEOPS, ASTEP, and

    The extent and power of 'maintenance mode' feedback in MaNGA AGN
    We study the ionized gas kinematics of 293 Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) hosts as compared to that of 485 control galaxies from the MaNGA-SDSS survey using measurements of the [O III]$\lambda$5007 Å emission-line profiles, presenting flux, velocity, and W$_{80}$ maps. In 45 per cent of the AGN, a broad component was needed to fit the line profiles
