The influence of late-stage nuclear burning on red supergiant supernova light curves
Viktoriya Morozova, Anthony L. Piro, Jim Fuller +1
Many Type II supernovae (SNe) show hot early (~30 days) emission, and a diversity in their light curves extending from the Type IIP to the Type IIL, which can be explained by inter…
LSQ13ddu: A rapidly-evolving stripped-envelope supernova with early circumstellar interaction signatures
Peter Clark, Kate Maguire, Cosimo Inserra +30
This paper describes the rapidly evolving and unusual supernova LSQ13ddu, discovered by the La Silla-QUEST survey. LSQ13ddu displayed a rapid rise of just 4.80.9 d to reach a…

In the context of the BUFFALO (Beyond Ultra-deep Frontier Fields And Legacy Observations) survey, we present a new analysis of the merging galaxy cluster MACS\,J0416.1-2403 ($z = 0…
A record of the final phase of giant planet migration fossilized in the asteroid belt's orbital structure
Matthew S. Clement, Alessandro Morbidelli, Sean N. Raymond +1
The asteroid belt is characterized by an extreme low total mass of material on dynamically excited orbits. The Nice Model explains many peculiar qualities of the solar system, incl…
Elemental Abundances in M31: The Kinematics and Chemical Evolution of Dwarf Spheroidal Satellite Galaxies

We present deep spectroscopy from Keck/DEIMOS of Andromeda I, III, V, VII, and X, all of which are dwarf spheroidal satellites of M31. The sample includes 256 spectroscopic members…
Cool Jupiters greatly outnumber their toasty siblings: Occurrence rates from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Songhu Wang, Jonathan Horner +8
Our understanding of planetary systems different to our own has grown dramatically in the past 30 years. However, our efforts to ascertain the degree to which the Solar system is a…
KELT-25b and KELT-26b: A Hot Jupiter and a Substellar Companion Transiting Young A-stars Observed by TESS

We present the discoveries of KELT-25b (TIC 65412605, TOI-626.01) and KELT-26b (TIC 160708862, TOI-1337.01), two transiting companions orbiting relatively bright, early A-stars. Th…
LEoPart: a particle library for FEniCS
Jakob M. Maljaars, Chris N. Richardson, Nathan Sime
This paper introduces LEoPart, an add-on for the open source finite element software library FEniCS to seamlessly integrate Lagrangian particle functionality with (Eulerian) mesh-b…
A well aligned orbit for the 45 Myr old transiting Neptune DS Tuc Ab
G. Zhou, J. N. Winn, E. R. Newton +18
DS Tuc Ab is a Neptune-sized planet that orbits around a member of the 45 Myr old Tucana-Horologium moving group. Here, we report the measurement of the sky-projected angle between…
Milky Way Satellite Census. II. Galaxy--Halo Connection Constraints Including the Impact of the Large Magellanic Cloud
E. O. Nadler, R. H. Wechsler, K. Bechtol +63
The population of Milky Way (MW) satellites contains the faintest known galaxies and thus provides essential insight into galaxy formation and dark matter microphysics. Here we com…
Milky Way Satellite Census. I. The Observational Selection Function for Milky Way Satellites in DES Y3 and Pan-STARRS DR1
A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol, S. Mau +55
We report the results of a systematic search for ultra-faint Milky Way satellite galaxies using data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and Pan-STARRS1 (PS1). Together, DES and PS1…
