Description
The study of the stellar content and physics of the ionized gas in local high-mass star-forming regions is specially important for better understanding extragalactic starbursts. Recent observations from space telescopes and near-infrared detectors have provided a wealth of new information about the gas and stars in these objects. In this paper, I review some relevant observational results related to: a) the stellar content in high and low-mass stars of the ionizing clusters; b) the interplay between the gas and stars; c) the role of ionization fronts; d) the chemical composition of the ionized gas.

    ExoMiner++: Enhanced Transit Classification and a New Vetting Catalog for 2-minute TESS Data
    We present ExoMiner++, an enhanced deep learning model that builds on the success of ExoMiner to improve transit signal classification in 2-minute TESS data. ExoMiner++ incorporates additional diagnostic inputs, including periodogram, flux trend, difference image, unfolded flux, and spacecraft attitude control data, all of which are crucial for

    VHE γ-ray observations of bright BL Lacs with the Large-Sized Telescope prototype (LST-1) of the CTAO
    Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) is the next-generation ground-based $\gamma$-ray observatory operating in the energy range from $20\, \mathrm{GeV}$ up to $300\, \mathrm{TeV}$, with two sites in La Palma (Spain) and Paranal (Chile). It will consist of telescopes of three sizes, covering different parts of the large energy range. We

    Characterising the short-orbital period X-ray transient Swift J1910.2–0546
    Context.Swift J1910.2–0546 (=MAXI J1910‑057) is a Galactic X-ray transient discovered during a bright outburst in 2012. Its X-ray spectral and timing properties point to a black-hole accretor, yet the orbital period remains uncertain, and no reliable dynamical constraints on the binary parameters are available. The 2012 event, extensively monitored
