The observed ages and sizes of a sample of quiescent galaxies suggests two evolutionary paths to quiescence: one with gradual shutdown of star formation, and one with rapid quenching and structural changes to the galaxy.

Analysis of Kepler planet candidates suggests that sub-Neptune-sized singles (sole detected transiting planets) and multis (planets in multi-transiting-planet systems) don’t differ in their stellar properties or planet radii.

Ten years of ANTARES track and shower data and seven years of IceCube track data reveal no significant excess, providing new constraints on galactic cosmic-ray production and transport.

A combination of deep new Chandra ACIS-I observations and extensive Hubble imaging from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury of the M31 disk reveals 373 X-ray sources, 170 of which are new discoveries.

An analysis of a subset of Kepler stars suggests that the strongest stellar flares do not correlate to the largest starspot group present, but weaker flares do show an increased occurrence close to starspot groups.

ALMA has revealed a misaligned inner gas disk inside the ~120-AU cavity in the face-on transitional disk 2MASS J16042165-2130284; its internal asymmetric structures may cause observed light-curve variations of the host star.
