Mapping the Landscape of M Dwarf X-ray Flares: New Discoveries in Context

Imri A. Dickstein, Maayane T. Soumagnac, Eran O. Ofek +4

We report the discovery of 11 X-ray flares from 7 M dwarfs previously unknown to exhibit flaring activity, by cross-matching eROSITA observations of bright, nearby M dwarfs with th…

IK Pegasi and the Double-merger Path to Type Ia Supernovae

Na'ama Hallakoun, Sahar Shahaf, Sagi Ben-Ami +3

Recent Gaia astrometry has revealed thousands of main-sequence + white-dwarf binaries (MS+WD) at separations of ~0.1-10 au, including a subset hosting unusually massive (>~0.8 Msun…

Gaia Barium Dwarfs and Their Ostensibly Ordinary Counterparts

Param Rekhi, Sahar Shahaf, Sagi Ben-Ami +4

The recently identified Gaia population of main-sequence--white dwarf (MS+WD) binaries at separations of , often with moderate eccentricities, is not readily re…

Ba Enrichment in Gaia MS+WD Binaries: Tracing -Process Element Production

Param Rekhi, Sagi Ben-Ami, Na'ama Hallakoun +3

A large population of intermediate-separation binaries, consisting of a main-sequence (MS) star and a white dwarf (WD), has recently emerged from Gaia's third data release (DR3), p…

Triage of the Gaia DR3 astrometric orbits. II. A census of white dwarfs

S. Shahaf, N. Hallakoun, T. Mazeh +4

The third data release of Gaia was the first to include orbital solutions assuming non-single stars. Here, we apply the astrometric triage technique of Shahaf et al. to identify bi…

A Census of NUV M-Dwarf Flares Using Archival GALEX Data and the gPhoton2 Pipeline

Param Rekhi, Sagi Ben-Ami, Volker Perdelwitz +1

M-dwarfs are common stellar hosts of habitable-zone exoplanets. NUV radiation can severely impact the atmospheric and surface conditions of such planets, making characterization of…

ULTRASAT: A wide-field time-domain UV space telescope

Y. Shvartzvald, E. Waxman, A. Gal-Yam +41

The Ultraviolet Transient Astronomy Satellite (ULTRASAT) is scheduled to be launched to geostationary orbit in 2026. It will carry a telescope with an unprecedentedly large field o…
