Context. Binary stars are gravitationally bound stellar systems where the evolution of each component can significantly influence the evolution of its companion and the system as a whole. In certain cases, the evolution of these systems can lead to the formation of a red giant-white dwarf system, which may exhibit symbiotic characteristics. Aims

Magnetic fields play a significant role in star-forming processes on core to clump scales. We investigate magnetic field orientations and strengths in the massive star-forming clump P2 within the filamentary infrared dark cloud G28.34+0.06 using dust polarization observations made using SCUBA-2/POL-2 on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) as

We present the eccentricity distribution of warm sub-Saturns (4–8 $R_{\rm{\oplus }}$, 8–200 d periods) as derived from an analysis of transit light curves from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission. We use the 'photoeccentric' effect to constrain the eccentricities of 76 planets, comprising 60 and 16 from single and

In this work, we continue to apply the updated KMTNet tender-love care photometric pipeline to historical microlensing events. We apply the pipeline to a subsample of events from the KMTNet database, which we refer to as the giant source sample. Leveraging the improved photometric data, we conduct a systematic search for anomalies within this

Context. Quiet-Sun Ellerman bombs (QSEBs) are small-scale magnetic reconnection events in the lower solar atmosphere. Sometimes, they exhibit transition region counterparts, known as ultraviolet (UV) brightenings. Magnetic field extrapolations suggest that QSEBs can occur at various locations of a fan-spine topology, with UV brightening occurring

Whether the presence of planets affects the lithium (Li) abundance of their host stars is still an open question. To investigate the difference in the Li abundance between planet-host stars (HSs) and isolated stars (ISs) with no detected planets, we analyze a large sample of stars with temperatures ranging from 4600 to 6600 K and metallicity
