Adaptation of an existing model allows for investigating lightning on all the gas and ice giants in our solar system; lightning has been either directly observed or inferred to occur on all four giant planets.

A study of single-lined spectroscopic binaries, in which only one set of spectral lines is observed to move back and forth over the course of an orbit, turns up a handful of candidate white dwarfs and neutron stars.

Elias R. Most and Eliot Quataert 2023 ApJL 947 L15

In the brief moments before collapse, hypermassive neutron stars may be capable of emitting flares and collimated jets, which could power the precursors to short-duration gamma-ray bursts.

Researchers have determined which early-time supernova properties can be reliably determined from late-time light curve data, providing a way to guide our follow-ups of survey data.

A new catalog of 5,405 nearby early-type dwarf galaxies presents the characteristics of these objects, such as whether they contain distinct galactic nuclei and what their galactic neighbors are like.
