UC Santa Cruz Press Release: Astronomers discover an enormous halo of red giant stars around Andromeda 4/1/08 10:54 PM January 7, 2007 Contact: Tim Stephens (831) 459-2495; stephens@ucsc.edu Astronomers discover an enormous halo of red giant stars around Andromeda Astronomers have found an enormous halo of stars bound to the Andromeda galaxy and extending far beyond the swirling disk seen in images of the famous galaxy, our nearest large galactic neighbor. ...

. Jos J. Chamb imaged comet Catalina on September 17, 2015, using a remote telescope in Siding Spring, Australia. Here, the comet appears near the bright star Alpha Lupi. The photographer notes: "The coma shows a strong greenish emission of C2, meanwhile its dust tail is projected toward southeast with a longitude of more than 1.5 degrees." . Josц© J. ChambцЕ

... Today this year's largest group of sunspots will cross the Sun's central meridian. ... The next day, the number of spots in the group reached five, and the day after, on June 2nd, it was possible to count thirteen sunspots on solar disk, which had been clear prior to this. ... This year's two most powerful active areas, which passed across the solar disk at the beginning of May, 2009, are set to appear in the Sun's eastern sector in two days, on June 6th. ...

The integers $ a_n=\sum_{k=0}^n{\binom nk}^2{\binom{n+k}k}^2, n=0,1,2,... $ appear as denominators of rational approximations to $\zeta(3)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty k^{-3}$ in Apery's proof of the irrationality of $\zeta(3)$. The sequence satisfies a polynomial recursion, namely, $ (n+1)^3a_{n+1}-(2n+1)(17n^2+17n+5)a_n+n^3a_{n-1}=0$, where $n=0,1,2,...$, and admits several curious congruence properties. ...

Seven months ago, on Mar 19, 2008, at 09:12 Moscow time, a new star appeared on the sky. The Sun had already risen over the Russia, but people of the Western hemisphere might be able to see by their eyes a faint starlet near one of Bootes constellation stars. This starlet appeared and faded by an order of magnitude in a minute. Astronomers named it GRB080319B or, informally, the Naked-Eye Burst, as it was twice as bright as human eye can see a star. ...

... To avoid extensive numerical calculations in the statistical simulations, we treat the continuous evolution of each binary component as a sequence of a finite number of basic evolutionary states (for example, main sequence, red (super)giant, helium (Wolf-Rayet) star,     hot WD), in which stellar parameters significantly differ from each other. ... Figure 2: Schematic representation of the typical evolutionary track of a massive binary system with normal and compact star stages indicated. ...
