Astronomers have found more than a dozen planets transiting stars that are 10-40 million years old, but younger transiting planets have remained elusive. The lack of such discoveries may be because planets have not fully formed at this age or because our view is blocked by the protoplanetary disk. However, we now know that many outer disks are warped or broken; provided the inner disk is depleted, transiting planets may thus be visible.

In super-resolution, a varying illumination image stack is required. This enriched dataset typically necessitates precise mechanical control and micron-scale optical alignment and repeatability. Here, we introduce a novel methodology for super-resolution microscopy called stochastically structured illumination microscopy (SIM), which bypasses the need for illumination control exploiting instead the random, uncontrolled movement of the target object.

Accretion disks around compact stars are formed due to turbulence driven by magnetorotational instability. Despite over 30 years of numerous computational studies on magnetorotational turbulence, the properties of fluctuations in the inertial range-where cross-scale energy transfer dominates over energy injection-have remained elusive, primarily due to insufficient numerical resolution. Here, we report the highest-resolution simulation of magnetorotational turbulence ever conducted.

The sensible selection of celestial objects for observation by the James Web Space Telescope (JWST) is pivotal for the precise decision-making (DM) process, aligning with scientific priorities and instrument capabilities to maximize valuable data acquisition to address key astronomical questions within the constraints of limited observation time. Aggregation operators are valuable models for condensing and summarizing a finite set of data of imprecise nature. Utilization of these operators is critical when addressing multi-attribute decision-making (MCDM) challenges.

In the case of low frequency echelle grating an interferometric measurement on the zero order is hardly feasible due to extremely low contrast of the fringes. The complete alignment has then to be carried out on high order (close to the blaze) where the two misalignment errors (the tip and rotation) show the same effect on the interferogram.
