Early Exploration of the Scientific Discovery Space for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Courtney D. Dressing, Danica Adams, Evelyne Alecian +324
The paper summarizes 70 science cases for the proposed NASA Habitable Worlds Observatory, outlining the observational needs across four scientific pillars and detailing required ca…
JWST Reveals Compact Nuclear Starbursts Masquerading as AGNs in Metal-Poor Dwarfs: Where Are the Accreting Intermediate-Mass Black Holes?
William Matzko, Shobita Satyapal, Jeffrey D. Mckaig +19
We present JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy of the low-mass, metal-poor galaxy SDSS~J160135.95+311353.7 (J1601), selected for its extreme mid-infrared colors and compact nuclear emission,…
Non-LTE atmosphere models of very luminous sources and their applicability to Little Red Dots, quasi-stars, and similar objects
Fabrice Martins, Daniel Schaerer, Rui Marques-Chaves
We investigate whether atmosphere models traditionally used for massive stars with strong winds can produce synthetic spectra morphologically similar to those of Little Red Dots (L…
IXPE view of the Crab pulsar following the 17 July and 6 August 2025 glitches
Paolo Soffitta, Niccolò Bucciantini, Josephine Wong +19
The Crab pulsar experienced two relatively small glitches separated by only 20 days in September and October 2025. IXPE observed the source twice, with delay times since the glitch…
A candidate to the long sought optical counterpart to the Rapid Burster in the bulge fossil fragment Liller 1
Cristina Pallanca, Francesco R. Ferraro, Barbara Lanzoni +6
We report on the possible identification of the optical counterpart of the Rapid Burster MXB 1730-335 in the stellar system Liller 1. The identification was performed by taking adv…
