Close binary central stars of PNe offer a unique window for investigating the conditions immediately following the ejection of a common envelope (CE). Double eclipsing and double-lined double systems are particularly valuable as they…
Many intermediate-mass close binaries exhibit photometric cycles longer than their orbital periods, likely related to accretion-disk variability. Previous studies indicate that historical light curves (LC) provide key constraints on disk…
Aims. In a first study, we characterised the properties of the gas component in the circumstellar envelopes surrounding a sample of 29 AGB stars with UV excesses. Now we intend to complement this information with an analysis of the dust…
Flare ribbons form when energy released by coronal magnetic reconnection is deposited in the low solar atmosphere, so by studying the dynamics of flare ribbons, one obtains an indirect measurement of reconnection. Our aim is to quantify the…
This paper aims to develop the first method to reconstruct the shape of the RV curves of short-period fundamental-mode Cepheids, based exclusively on their pulsation period and the morphology of their $V$-band light curves (LCs). We…
At low coronal temperatures around or below 1 MK distinct areas in the surroundings of active regions (AR) show emission at a level significantly below the emission coming from the quiet Sun (QS). These areas are referred to as dark halos,…
Type II radio bursts are solar radio emissions generated by electrons accelerated by coronal shocks. These bursts are typically found close to expanding coronal mass ejections (CMEs), making them valuable for studying the properties and…
We present the 4MOST-HR resolution Non-Local Thermal Equilibrium (NLTE) Payne artificial neural network (ANN), trained on $404\,793$ new FGK spectra with 16 elements computed in NLTE. This network will be part of the Stellar Abundances and…
RR Lyrae stars have long been considered unequivocal tracers of old (>10 Gyr) and metal-poor ($\mathrm{[Fe/H]}<-0.5$) stellar populations. First, because these populations are where they are readily found and because, according to canonical…
Understanding the relationship between magnetic flux ropes and magnetic reconnection is fundamental to both space and astrophysical plasma studies. In this study, we report on two consecutive heliospheric current sheet (HCS) crossings by…
Context. Understanding the demographics of white dwarf - main sequence (WDMS) binaries is key to uncovering the formation of various stellar exotica and refining the details of binary stellar evolution. Despite several dedicated efforts to…
Since times immemorial, total solar eclipses have inspired awe and wonder. In the modern scientific era they have transformed into exclusive natural laboratories, offering fleeting but invaluable opportunities to study the Sun's faint outer…
Shearing motion and magnetic flux cancellation around the polarity inversion line (PIL) play significant roles in the build-up of free magnetic energy and magnetic flux rope (MFR) in source region of major solar flares. Here we investigate…
Solar filament/prominence eruptions can significantly perturb geospace when originating from favorable source locations and directions. While stellar analogs have been recently reported, the disk locations and magnetic environments of their…
$\epsilon$ Ori (HD 37128) is an $\alpha$ Cygni variable characterized by irregular and small amplitude variations. From TESS observations, we find the presence of stochastic low-frequency variability in this star. We have constructed a…
The transition region is a thin inhomogeneous region where Alfven waves' energy fluxes generated elsewhere in the solar atmosphere are effectively converted. Large-scale kinetic Alfven wave propagations, transmission, and reflection…
We present a study that combines remote-sensing and in-situ observations of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) interacting with the nearby heliospheric current sheet (HCS). The sequence of eruptive events under study culminates in the largest…
Nonlinear Force-free Field (NLFFF) models are widely used to investigate coronal magnetic field structure in solar active regions, but methods to validate them remain limited. Here, we use Gaussian separation, recently applied to solar…
Spectropolarimetric interpretation of chromospheric lines requires solving the radiative transfer problem under non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (non-LTE) conditions. This means computing atomic-level populations self-consistently with…
Nova-like variables are high-accretion-rate cataclysmic variables (CVs) that, in contrast to dwarf novae, do not undergo outbursts caused by thermal-viscous instability. However, a small group of nova-likes, classified as AH Pic-type stars,…
