Descripción
We present near IR photometry and spectrophotometry of two unusual novae observed in 1991: Nova Herculis and Nova Scuti. Both are seen to have unusual spectral and light curve characteristics, the former due to the very formation of a dust cloud surrounding the nova and the second because of what is interpreted to be high interstellar reddening. Both novae present strong and well defined Brackett gamma lines, although in the former this line disappeared rapidly due to blanketing from the circumstellar dust cloud. Considerable differences are seen between the visible and IR light curves of both objects. Nova Herculis is found to be the fastest nova ever observed in the visible with a time to decay 3 mag from maximum (t 3) of 2.8 d.

    VaTEST III: Validation of eight potential super-earths from TESS data
    NASA's all-sky survey mission, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), is specifically engineered to detect exoplanets that transit bright stars. Thus far, TESS has successfully identified approximately 400 transiting exoplanets, in addition to roughly 6 000 candidate exoplanets pending confirmation. In this study, we present the results

    Validation of a Third Planet in the LHS 1678 System
    The nearby LHS 1678 (TOI-696) system contains two confirmed planets and a wide-orbit, likely brown-dwarf companion, which orbit an M2 dwarf with a unique evolutionary history. The host star occupies a narrow "gap" in the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram lower main sequence, associated with the M dwarf fully convective boundary and long-term luminosity

    Infrared Spectroscopy of RNA Nucleosides in a Wide Range of Temperatures
    The RNA world hypothesis suggests that early cellular ancestors relied solely on RNA molecules for both genetic information storage and cellular functions. RNA, composed of four nucleosides—adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, and uridine—forms the basis of this theory. These nucleosides consist of purine nucleobases, adenine and guanine, and pyrimidine
