Discover the cosmos! ... November 3, 1997 . Irregular Moons Discovered Around Uranus . ... Explanation: Where did these two irregular moons of Uranus originate? Last week two previously undiscovered moons of the distant gas planet were confirmed , the first in irregular orbits. ... If Uranus' irregular moons have the same origin as those orbiting Jupiter , Saturn , and Neptune , then they were probably caught from orbits around the Sun . ... About APOD > . ...

... This talk will present discoveries of new transiting planets and low mass stars, and the characterisation of their fundamental properties: mass, radius, temperature, and composition. ... The planets discovered by HATSouth orbit a diverse range of host stars, and the candidates identified have a wide range of orbital periods. ... These observations represent some of the highest precision near-infrared time-series photometry performed from the ground, and probe a diverse range of planet atmospheres. ...

... Luminous blue variable (LBV) stars are the most massive stars with 40-120 solar masses, which are passing the short stage of evolution losing their hydrogen envelopes before exploding as Supernovae. These are extremely rare objects, only about a dozen of the most massive LBVs are known in the Galaxy. ... In the spectral observations of stars with infrared circular nebulae, found in the Spitzer survey (24 microns), a new LBV star in the Galaxy was discovered. It was named MN112. ...

A team of U.S. and German astrophysicists have made the first ever detection of X-rays coming from a comet. ... Following the initial detection, the team reported repeated X-ray emissions from the comet over the next 24 hours. ... One preliminary theory is that X-ray emission from the Sun was absorbed by a cloud of gaseous water molecules surrounding the nucleus of the comet, and then were re-emitted by the molecules in a process physicists call "fluorescence." ...

. 66%) of the extreme AGB stars are variable and only smaller fractions of carbon-rich (6.1%) and oxygen-rich (2.0%) stars are detected as variable sources. We also detect a population of variable young stellar object candidates. [ ADS ] . ADS Citation Query . # citations = 41 . citations vs. year [year,citations] .
