In recent decades, observations of the X-ray and radio continuum have been instrumental in studying the coupling between accretion and ejection processes in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), with emphasis on systems harbouring black hole accretors. However, we have only recently begun to systematically study the evolution of their X-ray, optical and

Ultracool dwarf stars are abundant, long-lived and uniquely suited to enable the atmospheric study of transiting terrestrial companions with the JWST. Among them, the most prominent is the M8.5V star TRAPPIST-1 and its seven planets. While JWST Cycle 1 observations have started to yield preliminary insights into the planets, they have also revealed

For the first time, the LIGHTS survey is routinely imaging galaxies at a depth and spatial resolution comparable to what LSST will produce in 10 years (i.e. ~31 mag/arcsec^2). This opens up the possibility of probing the edge of galaxies with a precision that we have not been able to achieve in the past. While we have been limited to one

Active galactic nuclei (AGN) winds and jets are potential drivers of multi-phase outflows and can significantly modify the interstellar medium (ISM) properties of their host galaxies. The Quasar Feedback (QSOFEED) project aims to investigate the impact of multi-phase quasar-driven outflows and jets on the nuclear regions of quasar host galaxies

The forthcoming New Robotic Telescope, a collaboration between the UK and Spain, is poised to become the world's largest and fastest autonomous observatory, located in La Palma. It is tailored to be a premier 4m class follow-up facility for the imminent wave of time-domain and transient astrophysics. It exemplifies innovation with its use of

Astrochemical models are important tools to interpret observations of molecular and atomic species in different environments. However, these models are time-consuming, precluding a thorough exploration of the parameter space, leading to uncertainties and biased results. Using neural networks to simulate the behaviour of astrochemical models is a
