Barkaoui, K., Timmermans, M., Soubkiou, A., Rackham, B. V., Burgasser, A. J., Chouqar, J., …Zúñiga-Fernández, S. (2023). TOI-2084 b and TOI-4184 b: Two new sub-Neptunes around M dwarf stars. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 677, Article A38. https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202346838

We present the discovery and validation of two TESS exoplanets orbiting nearby M dwarfs: TOI-2084 b, and TOI-4184 b. We characterized the host stars by combining spectra from Shane/Kast and Magellan/FIRE, spectral energy distribution analysis, and st...

Upon undergoing mucoid conversion within the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients, the pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa synthesises copious quantities of the virulence factor and exopolysaccharide alginate. The enzyme guanosine diphosphate ma... Read More about Virtual screening, identification and in vitro validation of small molecule GDP-mannose dehydrogenase inhibitors †.

Hubble Space Telescope imaging of the compact elliptical galaxy M32 reveals a dearth of carbon stars (2023)
Journal Article

We present new Hubble Space Telescope WFC3/IR medium-band photometry of the compact elliptical galaxy M32, chemically resolving its thermally pulsating asymptotic giant branch stars. We find 2829 M-type stars and 57 C stars. The carbon stars are like... Read More about Hubble Space Telescope imaging of the compact elliptical galaxy M32 reveals a dearth of carbon stars.

Potent antimicrobial effect induced by disruption of chloride homeostasis (2023)

The Gaia-ESO Survey is a public spectroscopic survey that targeted greater than or similar to 10(5) stars covering all major components of the Milky Way from the end of 2011 to 2018, delivering its final public release in May 2022. Unlike other spect... Read More about The Gaia-ESO Survey: Homogenisation of stellar parameters and elemental abundances.

Type Ia Supernova Nucleosynthesis: Metallicity-dependent Yields (2023)
Journal Article

Type Ia supernova explosions (SN Ia) are fundamental sources of elements for the chemical evolution of galaxies. They efficiently produce intermediate-mass (with Z between 11 and 20) and iron group elements—for example, about 70% of the solar iron is...
