Stars like hiding their ages! In today’s paper, the authors inferred velocities of thousands of stars, which will help to determine their ages!
Sometimes, it takes a village to find a planet. Today’s authors pinned down a big one!
How can tides help us find hidden compact companions and yield detailed physics on stellar binaries?
Today’s authors found a unique occupant of the “brown dwarf desert,” on an extremely close orbit around its M dwarf host.
Evaporating close-in planets could be found more efficiently if you look for them around stars enshrouded in the escaping planetary material.
