Radio transients resulting from the coalescence of a neutron star and a black hole may form a sub-population of fast radio bursts, distinguishable by a double peak with a precursor.
L. Fossati et al 2015 ApJ 812 L35
Observations of a sample of stars with transiting hot Jupiters support the theory that stars’ chromospheric activity may be masked if they are orbited by hot Jupiters with low surface gravity.

Bulk chemical analyses of 1133 Antarctica micrometeorites suggest that 65% of meteorites lose <20% of their original mass, and 20% lose 20-60% of their original mass, during atmospheric entry.
E. Rasia et al 2015 ApJ 813 L17
New cosmological hydrodynamic simulations that include AGN diffusion are able to naturally produce a mix of cool-core and non-cool-core galaxy clusters similar to that observed.
N. Rea et al 2015 ApJ 813 92
The existence of magnetars and “super-magnetars,” with two different progenitors and formation paths, would reconcile the properties of GRB-magnetars with our galactic magnetar population.

Follow-up of 302 of the nebulae in the WISE Catalog of Galactic H ii Regions places 5 in the Outer Scutum–Centaurus Arm, making them the most distant H ii regions known in the galaxy.
