We report the detection of a faint stellar companion to the famous nearby A5V star Alcor (80 UMa). The companion has M-band ($\lambda$ = 4.8 $\mu$m) magnitude 8.8 and projected separation 1".11 (28 AU) from Alcor. The companion is most…

We performed a search for new dwarf galaxies in a direction towards the southwestern part of the Local Void using the data on DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys. In a sky area of $\sim1000$ square degrees, we discovered 12 candidates to nearby…

We present medium-resolution spectroscopy of a sample of stars in the second Galactic quadrant selected from the literature because their colours suggest that they are moderately-reddened early-type stars at very large distances. From the…

Through the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project we discovered a late-type L dwarf co-moving with the young K0 star BD+60 1417 at a projected separation of 37" or 1662 AU. The secondary - CWISER J124332.12+600126.2 (W1243) - is…

Astrometric measurements are presented for seven nearby stars with previously detected planets: six M dwarfs (GJ 317, GJ 667C, GJ 581, GJ 849, GJ 876, and GJ 1214) and one K dwarf (BD $-$10 3166). Measurements are also presented for six…

We present deep Keck/NIRC2 1.6 and 3.8 $\mu m$ imaging of Fomalhaut to constrain the near-infrared (IR) brightness of Fomalhaut b, recently confirmed as a likely planet (Currie et al. 2012a), and search for additional planets at r_proj =…

Almost all massive stars are part of a binary system. Given the wide range of separations at which these companions are found, several observational techniques have been adopted to characterize them, but contrasts greater than 4 in the…

We describe a near-IR photometric search for cool red dwarf companions to hot EUV-detected white dwarfs (WDs). While some composite systems have been found optically among WDs detected in recent EUV All-Sky Surveys, we develop an IR…

We report the discovery of SDSSJ1049+5103, an overdensity of resolved blue stars at (\alpha_{2000}, \delta_{2000}) = (162.343, 51.051). This object appears to be an old, metal-poor stellar system at a distance of 45 +/- 10 kpc, with a…

Aims: We aim at detecting and characterizing the main-sequence companion of the Cepheid AX Cir ($P_\mathrm{orb} \sim $ 18 yrs). The long-term objective is to estimate the mass of both components and the distance to the system. Methods: We…

We report on the determination of astrometric, spin and orbital parameters for PSR J1518+0204C, a "black widow" binary millisecond pulsar in the globular cluster M5. The accurate position and orbital parameters obtained from radio timing…

We present optical spectroscopy of the nearest quasar pair listed in the 13th edition of the Veron-Cetty & Veron catalogue, i.e. the two quasars SDSS J15244+3032 and RXS J15244+3032 (redshift z~0.27, angular separation ~7 arcsec, and…

We present new imaging and spectroscopic observations of the exoplanet host star $\gamma$ Cep A, and of its low-mass stellar companion $\gamma$ Cep B. We used AstraLux/CAHA to follow the orbital motion of the companion around its primary,…

Fomalhaut and epsilon Eridani are two young, nearby stars that possess extended debris disks whose structures suggest the presence of perturbing planetary objects. With its high sensitivity and stable point spread function, Spitzer/IRAC is…

The mass domain where massive extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs lay is still poorly understood. Indeed, not even a clear dividing line between massive planets and brown dwarfs has been established yet. This is partly due to the paucity of…

Eps Ind A is one of the nearest sun-like stars, located only 3.6 pc away. It is known to host a binary brown dwarf companion, Eps Ind Ba/Bb, at a large projected separation of 6.7", but radial velocity measurements imply that an additional,…

We used archival International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) high-dispersion, short wavelength spectra data to search for evidence of the spectra of hot subdwarf companions of six rapidly rotating Be stars in binary systems. We searched for…

We present a search for companion [CII] emitters to known luminous sources at $6<$ z $<6.5$ in deep, archival ALMA observations. The observations are deep enough to detect sources with L$_{\rm [CII]} \sim 10^8$ at z $\sim6$. We identify…

We report the discovery of one possible neutron star binary ($P_{\rm orb} =$ 0.8666 day) by using the LAMOST low-resolution spectroscopic data. The visible companion is a late A-type dwarf ($T_{\rm eff} = 7900 \pm 200$ K; log$g$ $=$…

The energetic, eclipsing millisecond pulsar J1816+4510 was recently discovered in a low-frequency radio survey with the Green Bank Telescope. With an orbital period of 8.7 hr and minimum companion mass of 0.16 Msun it appears to belong to…
