- Description:
- Using high-quality data on 149 galaxies within 10Mpc, I find no correlation between luminosity and peculiar velocity at all. There is no unequivocal sign on scales of 12Mpc of the expected gravitational effect of the brightest galaxies, in particular infall toward groups, or of infall toward the supergalactic plane on any scale. Either dark matter is not distributed in the same way as luminous matter in this region, or peculiar velocities are not due to fluctuations in mass. The sensitivity of peculiar velocity studies to the background model is highlighted.

- Description:
- We report the discovery and characterization of seven transiting exoplanets from the HATNet survey. The planets, which are hot Jupiters and Saturns transiting bright Sun-like stars, include: HAT-P-58b (with mass M_p_=0.37M_J_, radius R_p_=1.33R_J_, and orbital period P=4.0138days), HAT-P-59b (M_p_=1.54M_J_, R_p_=1.12R_J_, P=4.1420days), HAT-P-60b (M_p_=0.57M_J_, R_p_=1.63R_J_, P=4.7948days), HAT-P-61b (M_p_=1.06M_J_, R_p_=0.90R_J_, P=1.9023days), HAT-P-62b (M_p_=0.76M_J_, R_p_=1.07R_J_, P=2.6453days), HAT-P-63b (M_p_=0.61M_J_, R_p_=1.12R_J_, P=3.3777days), and HAT-P-64b (M_p_=0.58M_J_, R_p_= 1.70R_J_, P=4.0072days). The typical errors on these quantities are 0.06M_J_, 0.03R_J_, and 0.2s, respectively. We also provide accurate stellar parameters for each of the host stars. With V=9.710{+/-}0.050mag, HAT-P-60 is an especially bright transiting planet host, and an excellent target for additional follow-up observations. With R_p_=1.703{+/-}0.070R_J_, HAT-P-64b is a highly inflated hot Jupiter around a star nearing the end of its main-sequence lifetime, and is among the largest known planets. Five of the seven systems have long-cadence observations by TESS which are included in the analysis. Of particular note is HAT-P-59 (TOI-1826.01) which is within the northern continuous viewing zone of the TESS mission, and HAT-P-60, which is the TESS candidate TOI-1580.01.

- Description:
- We report the discovery of TOI-172 b from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, a massive hot Jupiter transiting a slightly evolved G star with a 9.48-day orbital period. This is the first planet to be confirmed from analysis of only the TESS full frame images, because the host star was not chosen as a two-minute cadence target. From a global analysis of the TESS photometry and follow-up observations carried out by the TESS Follow-up Observing Program Working Group, TOI-172 (TIC 29857954) is a slightly evolved star with an effective temperature of T_eff_=5645+/-50 K, a mass of M_*_=1.128_-0.061_^+0.065^ M_{sun}_, radius of R_*_=1.777_-0.044_^+0.047^ R_{sun}_, a surface gravity of log g_*_=3.993_-0.028_^+0.027^, and an age of 7.4_-1.5_^+1.6^ Gyr. Its planetary companion (TOI-172 b) has a radius of R_P_=0.965_-0.029_^+0.032^ R_J_, a mass of M_P_=5.42_-0.20_^+0.22^ M_J_, and is on an eccentric orbit (e=0.3806_-0.0090_^+0.0093^). TOI-172 b is one of the few known massive giant planets on a highly eccentric short-period orbit. Future study of the atmosphere of this planet and its system architecture offer opportunities to understand the formation and evolution of similar systems.

- Description:
- The transiting exoplanetary system WASP-174 was reported to be composed by a main-sequence F star and a giant planet, WASP-174b. However only an upper limit was placed on the planet mass, and a highly uncertain planetary radius was determined. We aim to better characterise both the star and the planet and precisely measure their orbital and physical parameters. In order to constrain the mass of the planet, we obtained new measurements of the radial velocity of the star and joined them with those from the discovery paper. Photometric data Q1 from the HATSouth survey and new multi-band, high-quality (precision reached up to 0.37mmag) photometric follow-up observations of transit events were acquired and analysed for getting accurate photometric parameters. We fit the model to all the observations, including data from the TESS space telescope, in two different modes: incorporating the stellar isochrones into the fit, and using an empirical method to get the stellar parameters. The two modes resulted to be consistent with each other. We confirm the grazing nature of the WASP-174b transits, which is also corroborated by simultaneously observing the transit through four optical bands and noting how the transit depth changes due to the limb-darkening effect. We estimate that 76% of the disk of the planet actually eclipses the parent star at mid-transit of its transit events. We find that WASP-174b is a highly-inflated hot giant planet with a mass of 0.330M_Jup_ and a radius of 1.435R_Jup_, and is therefore a good target for transmission-spectroscopy observations. With a density of 0.135g/cm^3^, it is amongst the lowest-density planets ever discovered with precisely measured mass and radius.

- Light element abundances of RGB & AGB stars in M10

- Description:
- We present CN and CH band measurements for 137 red giant branch (RGB) and asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Galactic globular cluster M10. Our measurements come from low-resolution spectroscopy taken with the Hydra spectrograph on the WIYN-3.5 m telescope. We use these measurements to identify two populations of stars within the cluster, CN-normal and CN-enhanced, and find that in our sample 60% of stars are CN-enhanced. Our large sample allows us to conduct a detailed analysis on the carbon and nitrogen abundances and the radial distribution of each population separately. Our analysis of the radial dependence shows that each population has the same radial distribution in the cluster, which is likely due to the cluster being dynamically evolved. We also compare our results to other methods of classifying multiple populations in globular clusters such as the Na-O anti-correlation and the HST pseudo-color-magnitude diagrams. We find that these three methods of identifying multiple populations are in good agreement with each other for M10 and all lead to an estimate of the fraction of second-generation stars approximately equal to 60%. Among AGB stars, when classified by the CN band, there appears to be a lack of second-generation stars when compared to the RGB stars. However, when classified by [N/Fe], we find a similar 60% of AGB stars in the second generation. Finally, we use the measured carbon and nitrogen abundances in RGB stars to study the change of each element with magnitude as stars evolve up the RGB, comparing the results to globular clusters of similar metallicity, M3 and M13.

- Description:
- Particularly accurate relative distances are compiled and homogenized for (1) 246 Type Ia supernovae and 35 clusters with v<30000km/s, and (2) relatively nearby galaxies with 176 tip of the red-giant branch and 30 Cepheid distances. The 487 objects define a tight Hubble diagram from 300-30000km/s implying individual distance errors of <~7.5%. Here the velocities are corrected for Virgocentric steaming (locally 220km/s) and -if v_220_>3500km/s- for a 495km/s motion of the Local Supercluster toward the warm cosmic microwave background (CMB) pole at l=275, b=12; local peculiar motions are averaged out by large numbers.

- Description:
- We announce the star HD 34700 to be a double-lined spectroscopic binary, and find it to be a weak-line T Tauri object. The spectra of both components are very similar and both show the Li I feature at 6708{AA}. Strong arguments in favour of the binary nature of the star as opposed to other possibilities are offered. It is very likely that the companion is also a T Tauri star of similar mass. We present, in Table 2, a list of the lines identified and the radial velocities of the two components for three epochs.

- Description:
- We have observed high-dispersion echelle spectra of red giant members in the five open clusters (OCs) NGC 1342, NGC 1662, NGC 1912, NGC 2354 and NGC 2447 and determined their radial velocities and chemical compositions. These are the first chemical abundance measurements for all but NGC 2447. We combined our clusters from this and previous papers with a sample drawn from the literature for which we remeasured the chemical abundances to establish a common abundance scale. With this homogeneous sample of OCs, we study the relative elemental abundances of stars in OCs in comparison with field stars as a function of age and metallicity. We find a range of mild enrichment of heavy (Ba-Eu) elements in young OC giants over field stars of the same metallicity. Our analysis supports that the youngest stellar generations in cluster might be underrepresented by the solar neighbourhood field stars.
