Chandra X-ray sources in a globular cluster are matched with optical counterparts, including 16 cataclysmic variables whose properties support production by dynamical interaction near the cluster center.
F. J. Abellán et al 2017 ApJL 842 L24
ALMA observations of SN 1987A reveal the detailed morphology of cold molecular gas in the innermost regions of the remnant, providing constraints for progenitor and explosion models.

The asteroid pair (6070) Rheinland and (54827) 2001 NQ8 is investigated and characterized to provide more information about young pairs thought to have formed by rotational fission.

Two supernovae may have occurred at ~50 pc from Earth in the last few Myr. Earth would have seen an increase in TeV–PeV cosmic rays by a factor of a few hundred, returning to normal levels within 10 kyr.
Zhen-Ya Zheng et al 2017 ApJL 842 L22
The first data from LAGER, the largest narrowband survey for z ~ 7 galaxies to date, identify 23 Lyα Emitter candidates at z = 6.9. The results support the hypothesis of ionized bubbles in a patchy reionization at z ~ 7.
Adric R. Riedel et al 2017 ApJ 840 87
Spectroscopic and kinematic analysis of 79 nearby M dwarfs in 77 systems reveal 44 young stars, of which 14 are not members of any known moving groups within 100 pc of the Sun.
