A catalog is created of solar filaments that formed between 1988 and 2013. Statistical analysis reveals relations between the latitudinal location of the filaments and their tilt angles and directions.

A newly detected feature in the scattered-light image of the circumbinary disk around the young double star AK Sco may be an eccentric ring or spiral arms, possibly caused by an orbiting planet.

The properties of jets produced by black holes may be primarily dependent on the properties of the plasma near the black hole, rather than on parameters like the black hole’s mass or spin.

Observations of the Moon occulting 18 stellar sources led to the detection of four angular diameters and two binary stars. Resolution limits of this study were 2 mas for diameters and 4 mas for separations.

This study explores the 1–5 micrometer transmission spectrum of Saturn as though it were a transiting exoplanet, using observations from the spectrometer on board the Cassini spacecraft.

The motion of the high-velocity compact cloud CO–0.40–0.22 is proposed to be due to a gravitational kick from an intermediate-mass (10^5 solar masses) black hole located in our galaxy’s CMZ.
