Solar-like oscillations and granulation are characterized for 16,094 oscillating red giants from Kepler end-of-mission long-cadence data, producing a catalog of properties that can be used as distance indicators and age proxies.

The first experimental evidence is presented of Earth-directed coronal mass ejections affecting the Sun’s shadow observed in the 3 TeV cosmic-ray intensity, as observed by the Tibet-III air shower array.

Chandra observations of the deeply embedded Serpens South star-forming region revealed a total of 152 X-ray sources, many of which are confirmed to be young stars that formed in a dense filament.

White dwarfs with effective temperatures above ~10,000 K require accretion rates several orders of magnitude larger than previously inferred, if one uses models that account for thermohaline mixing.

The observed configuration of the TRAPPIST-1 system is unlikely if a Jovian-mass planet inclined by ≥3° to the transiting planet exists within 0.53 AU, constraining a putative planet beyond the transiting seven planets.

A publicly available catalog is presented of 196 solar filament oscillations from the Global Oscillation Network Group Hα network data during several months near the maximum of solar cycle 24.
