Descripción
The authors have combined an enhanced Earth-based occultation data set and Voyager occultation observations to determine a new solution for the ring orbital elements and the direction of the planetary pole. They describe the new ground-based observations and the Voyager data used for this analysis. They discuss the new orbit solution and a search for resonances associated with the γ and δ rings, which are not well matched by simple elliptical orbits. Then the authors discuss the new solution and investigate the suspected association of resonances between satellites 1986U7 and 1986U8 and some of the rings.

    The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
    WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, saw first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-deg field-of-view prime-focus corrector system, a nearly 1000-multiplex fibre positioner, 20 individually deployable 'mini' integral field units (IFUs), and a single large IFU

    The double low-mass white dwarf eclipsing binary system J2102-4145 and its possible evolution
    In recent years, about 150 low-mass white dwarfs (WDs), typically with masses below 0.4 M ⊙, have been discovered. The majority of these low-mass WDs are observed in binary systems as they cannot be formed through single-star evolution within Hubble time. In this work, we present a comprehensive analysis of the double low-mass WD eclipsing binary

    Morphology and Kinematics of the Gas in M51: How Interaction with NGC 5195 Has Molded the Structure of Its Arms
    The Whirlpool Galaxy is a well-studied grand design galaxy with two major spiral arms, and a large satellite NGC 5195. The arms both show long uniform sections with perturbations ("kinks" or sharp turns) in specific regions. Comparing the two arms shows a small radial offset between the main kinked regions. We analyzed the morphology and also the
