We present a coordinated multi-instrument photometric and polarimetric study of the defunct geosynchronous satellite, Gorizont-6. This observation campaign combined wide-field multi-colour observations with simultaneous multi-site…
With traditional sources of funding for astronomical research under increasing pressure, it is timely to explore innovative alternative mechanisms. We therefore introduce GalaxyCoin, a novel cryptocurrency whose issuance, validation, and…
A lunar orbit interferometer array suffers from a number of systematics. Beyond systematics induced by the imaging algorithm itself and thermal noise considered in Paper I, phase errors due to instrumental inconsistency between receivers,…
Large Language Models (LLMs) are now widely used in astrophysics, but do they actually make our lives easier, or do they merely invent new physics with enough confidence to hide a minus sign? In a specialized field where checking fluent…
The heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems serving the experimental halls of the Virgo gravitational wave interferometer generate low-frequency noise - namely below 100 Hz - of seismic, acoustic, and electromagnetic origin. Such…
Informative data visualization methods are key to the clear and efficient communication of myriad forms of data. The PASTA Collaboration has made substantial contributions to the field of data visualization through $\mathtt{pastamarkers}$,…
Exhaustion and brain fog during long nights observing is common, but can be ameliorated by raising one's blood sugar. In this white paper, we present a prototype method for facilitating a sugar rush during late-night crashes, which has the…
The search for habitable planets, and even for ``Earth 2.0'', is a major driver in contemporary astronomy. However selecting target fields to prioritise for such searches presents a challenge. Here we establish a statistical analysis of the…
Modern numerical models are increasingly complex, opaque, and computationally expensive, yet frequently fail to predict even qualitative features of observed phenomena. We propose a new paradigm, Declarative Bespoke Modelling, in which the…
Nine impact craters on Mercury bear the names of Persian-Tajik poets: Rudaki, Saadi, Nizami, Rumi, Navoi, Firdousi, Hafiz, Sanai, and Mahsati. We compile IAU-approved coordinates, diameters, quadrant designations, approval dates…
Artificial intelligence is projected to increase U.S. data centre power demand beyond 100 gigawatt by 2035 and global demand toward 1 terrawatt. In response, companies and governments have proposed placing computing infrastructure in…
Achieving the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) goal of 10^-10 contrast at a separation of 3 $\lambda$/D across a 20% bandwidth requires coronagraph focal plane masks with both broadband high contrast performance and high planet…
Data fusion is a computational process widely used in Earth observation to generate high-resolution hyperspectral data cubes with two spatial and one spectral dimensions. It merges data from instruments with complementary characteristics:…
Advancing the technological development of small inner working angle (IWA) coronagraphs is essential to enabling high-contrast imaging of temperate exoplanets with future extremely large telescopes. The PIAACMC has been shown to closely…
Previous studies based on the latest realisation of the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF3) have suggested a correlation between astrometric properties (such as the radio-optical offset) and redshift for active galactic nuclei…
Lensed quasars are key to many areas of study in astronomy, offering a unique probe into the intermediate and far universe. However, finding lensed quasars has proved difficult despite significant efforts from large collaborations. These…
Aperiodic variability is a characteristic feature of young stars, massive stars, and active galactic nuclei. With the recent proliferation of time domain surveys, it is increasingly essential to develop methods to quantify and analyze…
We present SNID-SAGE (SuperNova IDentification-Spectral Analysis and Guided Exploration), a framework for supernova spectral classification with both a fully interactive graphical interface and a scriptable command-line pipeline for…
The second solar spectrum is the solar spectrum of Stokes parameter Q observed in linear polarization close to the solar limb. It differs significantly of the usual intensity spectrum (Stokes parameter I). The second solar spectrum contains…
We present the first public data release (DR1) of the KMTNet Synoptic Survey of Southern Sky (KS4). This deep, wide-field imaging survey covers a southern footprint of -85$^{\circ}$ < Decl. < -28.8$^{\circ}$ in the $B$, $V$, $R$, and $I$…
