Observations of 13 Planck cold clumps with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope/SCUBA-2 and the Nobeyama 45-m radio telescope allow for investigation of the starless clumps’ chemical evolutionary stages.

The discovery of the accretion of a Kuiper-Belt-Object analog onto the atmosphere of a white dwarf reveal that such objects could deliver volatiles to terrestrial planets beyond the solar system.

Observations from HINODE and SDO of longitudinal waves in a coronal loop suggest that footpoint heating can generate a slow wave which then reflects back and forth in the loop before fading.

Chandra observations of four nearby young, eccentric binaries tentatively suggest that colliding magnetospheres in young high-eccentricity binaries might produce elevated average levels of X-ray activity.

Degeneracies are shown to exist between transmission spectra of super-Earth planets with different masses and compositions, indicating difficulty in determining a planet’s mass from transmission spectroscopy alone.

The black-hole masses are calculated for nearly 300,000 active galactic nuclei using broad emission line data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Data Release 12 (DR12Q).
