According to the findings of this analysis, this object is an extreme dwarf nova of the U Gem type. The findings are detailed in a paper published on...

Astronomers have investigated a variable X-ray source

Using data from various space telescopes, astronomers investigated SWIFT J0503.7-2819, a variable X-ray source. The study's findings indicate that this source is an intermediate polar. The discovery was detailed in a paper published on the arXiv pre-print server on September 22. CVs are binary star...

Young open cluster NGC 602 inspected with ALMA

Astronomers used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to study NGC 602, a young open cluster in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The findings of the study, which were published on the arXiv pre-print server on August 29, provide important insights into the properties...

Astronomers discover two ‘super-Earths’ orbiting nearby star

Two brand-new "super-Earth" exoplanets have been found, according to a global team of astronomers, and they are in close proximity to a late-type M dwarf star. The two recently discovered alien worlds, LP 890-9 b and LP 890-9 c, are slightly bigger than Earth....
