Observational and theoretical evidence supports the idea that the influence of supermassive black hole growth on galaxies extends from the central tens of parsecs (localised, transient impact) to hundreds of kiloparsecs (global, long-term impact). Because of the completely different scales of these localised and global effects on the host galaxies

We present detailed forecasts for the constraints on the characteristics of primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) generated prior to recombination that will be obtained with the LiteBIRD satellite. The constraints are driven by some of the main physical effects of PMFs on the CMB anisotropies: the gravitational effects of magnetically-induced

The Kepler mission has delivered unprecedented high-quality photometry. These data have impacted numerous research fields including Galactic studies, asteroseismology, and exoplanets, and continue to be an astrophysical gold mine to this day. Because of this, thorough investigations of the ∼200,000 stars observed by Kepler remain of paramount

The application of cross-correlation techniques to JWST transmission spectra has opened an alternate pathway to study exoplanet atmospheres with JWST observations, which will contribute to pave the road for the first atmospheric studies with ELTs. JWST observed for the first time the hot-Jupiter WASP-39b on July 2022 as part of the JWST Transiting

Context. Evolutionary models suggest that the initial growth phases of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are dust-enshrouded and characterised by jet or wind outflows that should gradually clear the interstellar medium (ISM) in the host by heating and/or expelling the surrounding gas. eFEDSJ091157.4

Context. The spatial coherence wavefront outer scale (ℒ 0) characterizes the size of the largest turbulence eddies in Earth's atmosphere, determining low spatial frequency perturbations in the wavefront of the light captured by ground-based telescopes. Advances in adaptive optics (AO) techniques designed to compensate for atmospheric turbulence
