Black hole low-mass X-ray binaries could form without a common-envelope phase and instead form via triple-body dynamics if they start out as a heierarchical triple star system.

Analysis of 114 blazars undetected by the VERITAS Cherenkov telescope array provides flux upper limits for these objects in the VERITAS energy band.

Surface flux transport simulations for solar Cycle 24 suggest the dipole moment in 2020 will be comparable to that at the end of Cycle 23. This argues that Cycle 25 may be moderate, like Cycle 24.

The the Milky Way Imaging Scroll Painting (MWISP) project, a high-sensitivity CO survey, has provided a large-scale mapping of the molecular gas of the Outer arm of the Milky Way in the second quadrant.

The LITTLE THINGS survey of dwarf irregular galaxies discovers that star formation does occur in the outer disks of these galaxies in spite of the extreme nature of the environment.

New observations and analysis are presented for the planet orbiting HD 20782 with an eccentricity of 0.96. Photometric data suggests evidence of reflected light from the planet’s atmosphere.
