The galaxy SDSS1335+0728 brightened abruptly in December 2019 (the Ansky event) and has since been confirmed as the host of extreme X-ray quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs) of debated origin. We constrain the origin of its transient activity…
We reveal a pristine, scale-invariant 3D Kolmogorov velocity cascade ($\alpha_V^{\mathrm{3D}} \sim 2/3$) spanning $0.05$--$20$~pc in the Polaris Flare using \texttt{PPCOS} $^{12}\text{CO}$ data. A transition scale at $\sim 0.5$~pc marks a…
Our goal is to find chemical diagnostics to determine the physical conditions in protostellar envelopes and help establish the development of matter during the formation of a low-mass star, as well as investigating a possible variation of…
We applied the barred population-orbit superposition method developed in \citet{Jin2025a,Jin2025b} to construct 3D chemo-dynamical models for the barred S0 galaxy NGC~1381 in the Fornax cluster. Based on the stellar orbits in the models, we…
We investigate whether galaxies identified as superthin in optical images remain superthin in the near-infrared (NIR), and how their extreme disk morphology is related to environment. From a nearby volume-limited sample, we select 210…
Spatially resolved maps of gas-phase metallicity provide key constraints on the chemical enrichment and mixing processes that drive galaxy evolution, but measurements based only on strong lines remain highly uncertain and dependent on…
Magnetic fields are a fundamental component of astrophysical systems, yet many key questions about their origin, amplification, and role in structure formation and evolution remain unresolved. The SKA will mark a transformational step…
UGC 2369S is a luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) undergoing a late-stage merger in a triple system, where the heavily obscured northern core is suspected to host an active galactic nucleus (AGN). However, severe dust and gas obscuration makes…
We systematically organize the radio-emitting components in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (RQ AGN), including jets, accretion disk coronae, dust, ionized gas outflows, and circumnuclear star formation. We present a diagnostic framework…
The chemistry of stars provides powerful insight into the history of the Milky Way. With multiple large-sky spectroscopic surveys that are currently available, using chemistry as a means to study the evolution and history of the Milky Way…
The persistent tension between early- and late-Universe measurements of the Hubble constant (H0) remains on of the most significant challenges in modern cosmology. The Spectroastrometry and Reverberation Mapping (SARM) method offers a…
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) detected numerous massive and relatively compact stellar clumps around proto-galaxies at high redshift (z>0.5). Their properties suggest that these systems may represent proto-globular clusters (GCs),…
Finding the first (Population III or Pop III) stars is one of the fundamental quests of astronomy, aiming to deliver the missing link in how stars form at early cosmic times. Yet their initial mass function, formation sites and feedback…
The bright Ly$\alpha$ line is regularly used to identify high-redshift star-forming galaxies known as Ly$\alpha$ emitters (LAEs). However, Ly$\alpha$ is affected by resonant scattering and dust absorption making interpretation of its…
The Schwarzschild orbit-superposition method is a highly flexible dynamical modelling tool. It constrains the mass distribution of a galaxy using line-of-sight velocity and photometric observations. However, constructing such a dynamical…
Large-scale ionised outflows and nuclear obscuration are fundamental manifestations of AGN activity, yet direct observational evidence linking these phenomena remains scarce. We use the eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey, among the…
We present a Gaia DR3 source-level census of \emph{Stellar Snake} complexes within 3\,kpc of the Sun. We define a Stellar Snake as a mutually coherent association of two or more stellar overdensities, characterised by consistent positions,…
We report the low-resolution long-slit spectroscopic observations and confirmations of 11 quasar pair candidates, which are selected from the MGQPC catalog presented in the first paper of our series work (hereafter, Paper-I) and the early…
We investigate the multi-wavelength structure of recently quenched post-starburst (PSB) galaxies at 0.5 < z < 3, using photometrically selected samples from the Ultra Deep Survey (UDS). Leveraging deep eight-band JWST/NIRCam imaging from…
We report the discovery of a sample of little red dots (LRDs) at $z \approx 2$ identified from deep JWST/NIRCam imaging and wide-field slitless spectroscopy over $140$ arcmin$^2$ from the EIGER survey. With an improved blind broad-line…
