Photometric observations reveal multiple recent dimming events of RW Aurigae, a Classical T Tauri system. They may be due to occultation of the star by its tidally disrupted circumstellar disk.

A 1.3 Mpc diffuse radio source was found in the vicinity of the Abell 449 cluster of galaxies. The parent galaxy of this extended relic structure appears to be starting new jet activity.

This experimental study provides insight on the potential composition of Europa’s subsurface ocean based on what minerals are confirmed to have crystallized at its frozen surface.

Ten young dwarf stars’ “dipping” light curves could be caused by differing mechanisms, including: inner disk warps, vortices at the inner disk edge, and transiting clumps of circumstellar material.

Philipp Girichidis et al 2016 ApJ 816 L19

MHD simulations of supernova-driven interstellar medium show that cosmic rays are able to launch and sustain strong outflows of atomic and ionized gas, with mass-loading factors of ~1.

Jason H. Steffen and Gongjie Li 2016 ApJ 816 97

Numerical simulations of resonant planet-planet interactions show that close-proximity pairs of planets that lie in their host’s habitable zone can be conducive to life in the system.
