Measurements of the cosmological density parameter Omega using techniques that exploit the gravity-induced motions of galaxies constrain, in linear perturbation theory, the degenerate parameter combination beta = Omega^{0.6}/b, where the…
We report an $\textit{in situ}$ mass measurement of approximately-$4.7{\text -}\mu$m-diameter, optically levitated microspheres with an electrostatic co-levitation technique. The mass of a trapped, charged microsphere is measured by holding…
AA Dor is an eclipsing, post common-envelope binary with an sdOB-type primary and a low-mass secondary. Eleven years ago, an NLTE spectral analysis showed a discrepancy in the surface gravity that was derived by radial-velocity and…
Regarding a $d-$dimensional spherically symmetric line element in the context of Einstein-$\Lambda$ gravity, the hydrostatic equilibrium equation of stars is obtained. Then, by using the lowest order constrained variational (LOCV) method…
The constraints on tidal deformability $\Lambda$ of neutron stars are first extracted from GW170817 by LIGO and Virgo Collaborations but the relation between radius $R$ and tidal deformability $\Lambda$ is still nuder debate. Using an…
Precise measurements of the mass and width of the W boson are sensitive to radiative corrections and can be used to place limits on new physics beyond the Standard Model and validate the consistency of the model. In particular, the W boson…
The plethora of recent cosmologically relevant data has indicated that our universe is very well fit by a standard Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) model, with $\Omega_{M} \approx 0.27$ and $\Omega_{\Lambda} \approx 0.73$ --…
Low-resolution LAMOST and Keck spectra of blue supergiant stars distributed over the disks of the Local Group spiral galaxies M 31 and M 33 are analyzed to determine stellar effective temperatures, gravities, metallicities, and reddening.…
A precise determination of the mass function is an important tool to verify cosmological predictions of the $\Lambda$CDM model and to infer more precisely the better model describing the evolution of the Universe. Galaxy clusters have been…
The cosmic microwave background (CMB) and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) provide precise measurements of the cosmic expansion history through the comoving acoustic scale. The CMB angular scale measurement $\theta_*$ is particularly…

The recent measurements of Cosmic Microwave Background temperature and polarization anisotropies made by the Planck satellite have provided impressive confirmation of the $\Lambda$CDM cosmological model. However interesting hints of slight…
We present the stellar density profile of the outer halo of the Galaxy traced over a range of Galactocentric radii from $15< R_{GC} < 220$ kpc by blue horizontal branch (BHB) stars. These stars are identified photometrically using deep…
The rotation curve, the total mass and the gravitational potential of the Galaxy are sensitive measurements of the dark matter halo profile. In this publication cuspy and cored DM halo profiles are analysed with respect to recent…
The most accurate stellar astrophysical parameters were collected from the solutions of the light and the radial velocity curves of 257 detached double-lined eclipsing binaries in the Milky Way. The catalogue contains masses, radii, surface…

We sharpen the known inequalities $A \Lambda \le 4\pi (1-g)$ and $A\ge 4\pi Q^2$ between the area $A$ and the electric charge $Q$ of a stable marginally outer trapped surface (MOTS) of genus g in the presence of a cosmological constant…
The forward-backward angular asymmetry (${\cal A}_{FB}$) for $\bar B^0\to \Lambda\bar p\pi^+$ measured by Belle has presented an experimental value in the range of $-30\%$ to $-50\%$. In our study, we find that ${\cal A}_{FB}[\bar…
