Modeling suggests that a recent supernova resulted from the explosion of a star with main-sequence mass below 10 solar masses that had been stripped of its atmosphere.

A new reference magnitude for the rate at which meteors pass through Earth’s atmosphere has been developed, and the new reference may be less sensitive to population index than previous references.

Results from a convection-resolving model generally agree with previous results from a general circulation model, including the presence of a substellar cloud cluster.
Researchers have identified four emission modes in PSR J0344−0901 for the first time, finding that each emission mode has its own subpulse behavior.
A new catalog encompasses 3,615 point sources in the Tarantula Nebula star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud; removal of these point sources led to the development of a diffuse X-ray map.
A newly discovered extremely red object dubbed Cerberus likely lies outside our galaxy, most likely at a redshift of z ~ 4 or, remarkably, at an extremely high redshift of z ~ 15.
