The first catalog of TeV gamma-ray sources is presented from the newly completed High Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) — the most sensitive TeV survey to date for such a large fraction of the sky.

Optical and infrared images from Spitzer Space Telescope, Hubble Space Telescope, and ground-based facilities have revealed 6 new planetary-mass brown dwarf candidates in the Chamaeleon I star-forming region.

Gravity harmonics measured during the Cassini Grand Finale may be used to get an estimate of the structure of how Saturn’s gas flows and to better constrain the planet’s density structure and composition.
Benedikt Diemer 2017 ApJS 231 5
The Subhalo and PARticle Trajectory Analysis (SPARTA) parallel computer code can analyze the orbits of billions of particles in large cosmological simulations of dark matter halos, reliably measuring halo properties.
Krishnendu Mandal et al 2017 ApJ 842 89
New computational advancements have been made in time–distance helioseismology, a process that allows us to infer internal properties of the Sun from surface measurements of wave travel times.
Takashi J. Moriya et al 2017 ApJL 843 L19
The superluminous transients that appear at central regions of some active galactic nuclei may be powered by the interaction between accretion-disk winds and clouds in broad-line regions surrounding them.
