Nonthermal hotspot orbiting the supermassive black hole Sgr A*

Alejandro Cruz-Osorio, David Barrero-González, Juan J. Zaldívar +1

Recent millimeter wavelength observations at 230 GHz by the Event Horizon Telescope have resolved the innermost structure of the Galactic Center, Sgr A*, revealing a ring-like stru…

Magnetic Fields in Massive Star-forming Regions (MagMaR). IX. Radiative Torque Alignment and Disruption in NGC6334I

Vineet Rawat, Thiem Hoang, Patricio Sanhueza +18

Intense radiation from high-mass stars is expected to significantly affect dust grain alignment and evolution through RAdiative Torques (RATs). We investigate this effect in a mass…

Investigating the electron temperature of [Ar IV] in planetary nebulae using the DESIRED database

J. García-Rojas, E. Reyes-Rodríguez, J. E. Méndez-Delgado +9

(Abridged) We investigate the behaviour of the electron temperature derived from [Ar IV] lines, Te([Ar IV]), in a sample of PNe to characterize the thermal structure of high-excita…

Remembering George Smoot

John Berliner, Tom Broadhurst, Martin Bucher +31

George Smoot (1945-2025) was a major figure in observational cosmology, particularly through his role in the precision measurement of the CMB dipole and the discovery of the primor…

Ages of the resolved stellar populations inside the JWST/MIRI bubbles in NGC 628

Avinash Ck, Divakara Mayya, Alessandro Bressan +3

JWST images in the MIRI filters are characterized by prominent interstellar bubbles, most of which are expected to be created by mechanical energy injected into the interstellar me…
