A new catalog contains mid-infrared photometry and measured global properties of the 100 largest galaxies in the sky, including the Magellanic Clouds, Local Group galaxies M31 and M33, and the Fornax and Virgo galaxy cluster giants.

Observations of sunspots in three regions of the active region NOAA 12673 show that sunspot penumbrae evolve through the interaction of the preexisting magnetic field system and the later-emerging magnetic field system.
Smadar Naoz et al 2020 ApJL 888 L8
Could a supermassive black hole binary exist in our galactic center, rather than a singlesupermassive black hole? New calculations place limits on the properties of the companion to Sgr A*, should it exist.

Four years of observations with the Gemini Planet Imager indicate that the young, directly-imaged exoplanet 51 Eridani b is on an eccentric orbit with a semimajor axis of ~11.1 AU and a period of 28 years.
Yuma Sugahara et al 2019 ApJ 886 29
The measured velocities of galactic outflows in seven star-forming galaxies at z = 5–6 are used to demonstrate that outflow velocity is physically related to the halo circular velocity over redshifts of z = 0–6.

The Outer Rim cosmological simulation, one of the largest high-resolution N-body simulations performed to date, covers a volume of (4.225 Gpc)3 and evolves more than one trillion particles.
