Disk thicknesses were measured in a sample of ~100 edge-on Hubble Frontier Field galaxies with bulges. The scale heights measured were proportional to galactic mass.

Statistical analysis of all published HST/WFC3 transit spectra for 1.1–1.65 μm water vapor absorption suggest that cloud condensation in exoplanet atmospheres may decrease with increasing temperature.

Marla Geha et al 2017 ApJ 847 4

Early results of the “Satellites Around Galactic Analogs” (SAGA) Survey reveal 25 new satellite galaxies around systems analogous to the Milky Way galaxy, most of which are star-forming.

M. Ajello et al 2017 ApJS 232 18

In the new catalog of sources detected at >10 GeV by Fermi LAT in the first 7 years of data using the Pass 8 event-level analysis, 79% are associated with extragalactic counterparts at other wavelengths.

12 successful occulations by Chariklo, observed between 2014 and 2016, are used to provide profiles (physical width, opacity, edge structure) for this asteroid-like body’s rings.

Dale D. Kocevski et al 2017 ApJ 846 112

~40% of massive compact star-forming galaxies at z = 2 are found to host an X-ray detected active galactic nucleus, a fraction 3.2x higher than that for extended star-forming galaxies with similar masses at this redshift.
