Description
Relations are presently established among T(eff), colors, and metallicity for a sample of Population I and II F and G main-sequence stars whose physical parameters and photometric indices are well known. A comparison of these results with empirical calibrations, as well as the Yale and vandenBergh and Bell (1985) colors shows that theoretical colors underestimate metallicity effects on the T(eff) scale. These efforts are part of a program aimed at a more accurate determination of the parameters of P I and P II stars.

    Apparent correlation between extrinsic and intrinsic flux variations in the first gravitationally lensed quasar
    To better understand which sources contribute to optical passband fluxes of Q0957+561, we present and analyse light curves of the doubly imaged gravitationally lensed quasar from its discovery to 2023. After an early microlensing event, the difference light curves (describing delay-corrected flux ratios between the two quasar images) only show

    Identification of the Top TESS Objects of Interest for Atmospheric Characterization of Transiting Exoplanets with JWST
    JWST has ushered in an era of unprecedented ability to characterize exoplanetary atmospheres. While there are over 5000 confirmed planets, more than 4000 Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) planet candidates are still unconfirmed and many of the best planets for atmospheric characterization may remain to be identified. We present a sample

    High-resolution Spectroscopic Reconnaissance of a Temperate Sub-Neptune
    The study of temperate sub-Neptunes is the new frontier in exoplanetary science. A major development in the past year has been the first detection of carbon-bearing molecules in the atmosphere of a temperate sub-Neptune, K2-18 b, a possible Hycean world, with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The JWST is poised to characterize the atmospheres
