The superior spatial resolution of NuSTAR above 10 keV allowed for the detection of dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the source SWIFT J2028.5+2543. This pair has a projected separation of 25.3 kpc.

NGC 1332 is used to demonstrate that by resolving gas kinematics on small angular scales in galaxy nuclei, ALMA is able to measure determine the masses of supermassive black holes.
A. Gianninas et al 2016 ApJ 822 L27
Three precursors to extremely low-mass white dwarfs with mixed H/He atmospheres were recently discovered to have asteroseismic pulsations, providing insight into what causes the pulsations.

The first systematic supernova remnant survey at energies from 1 to 100 GeV — using data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) — reveals 30 sources as likely GeV supernova remnants.

Black hole low-mass X-ray binaries could form without a common-envelope phase and instead form via triple-body dynamics if they start out as a heierarchical triple star system.

Analysis of 114 blazars undetected by the VERITAS Cherenkov telescope array provides flux upper limits for these objects in the VERITAS energy band.
