Description
We report atmospheric parameter estimates (Teff, log g, [Fe/H]) and other information (radial velocities, proper motions, distance estimates) for roughly 40,000 stars (out of a total of some 75,000) from the third public release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), DR-3. As part of this exercise, we have compiled a set of spectral templates that might prove useful as examples of the kinds of stars that will be found in the SEGUE (Sloan Extension for Galactic Understanding and Evolution) project, which is part of the proposed SDSS-II extension. This work received partial funding support from grant PHY 02-16783, Physics Frontier Centers/JINA: Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics, awarded by the US National Science Foundation. C.R. acknowldeges support from NASA grant HST-HF-01143.01-A.

    Workshop summary: Kaons@CERN 2023

    Kaon physics is at a turning point - while the rare-kaon experiments NA62 and KOTO are in full swing, the end of their lifetime is approaching and the future experimental landscape needs to be defined. With HIKE, KOTO-II and LHCb-Phase-II on the table and under scrutiny, it is a very good moment in time to take stock and contemplate about the

    3.5 years of observing exoplanet day sides with CHEOPS

    Characterising Exoplanets Satellite (CHEOPS) is the first ESA exoplanet space mission. The satellite carries a 30cm telescope, optimised to deliver exquisite (ppm-level) photometry of bright exoplanetary systems at optical wavelengths. CHEOPS has spent approximately 20% of its observing time during its 3.5-year long nominal mission studying

    Finding Water Worlds with Transit Timing Variations

    Models predict that planets with water-rich compositions may be common around low-mass stars, but definitive evidence for the existence of water worlds has remained elusive. Precise mass and radius measurements for small planets allow us to identify candidate water worlds that have bulk densities too low to be consistent with a rocky composition
