We report the large effort that is producing comprehensive high-level young star cluster (YSC) catalogs for a significant fraction of galaxies observed with the Legacy ExtraGalactic UV Survey (LEGUS) Hubble treasury program. We present the methodology developed to extract cluster positions, verify their genuine nature, produce multiband photometry (from NUV to NIR), and derive their physical properties via spectral energy distribution fitting analyses. We use the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 628 as a test case for demonstrating the impact that LEGUS will have on our understanding of the formation and evolution of YSCs and compact stellar associations within their host galaxy. Our analysis of the cluster luminosity function from the UV to the NIR finds a steepening at the bright end and at all wavelengths suggesting a dearth of luminous clusters. The cluster mass function of NGC 628 is consistent with a power-law distribution of slopes ∼ -2 and a truncation of a few times 10<SUP>5</SUP> {M}<SUB>⊙ </SUB>. After their formation, YSCs and compact associations follow different evolutionary paths. YSCs survive for a longer time frame, confirming their being potentially bound systems. Associations disappear on timescales comparable to hierarchically organized star-forming regions, suggesting that they are expanding systems. We find mass-independent cluster disruption in the inner region of NGC 628, while in the outer part of the galaxy there is little or no disruption. We observe faster disruption rates for low mass (≤10<SUP>4</SUP> {M}<SUB>⊙ </SUB>) clusters, suggesting that a mass-dependent component is necessary to fully describe the YSC disruption process in NGC 628. <P />Based on observations obtained with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, at the Space Telescope Science Institute, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under NASA contract NAS 5-26555. | 9 |
0.10.0 Improvements for force field fitting For the complete release notes, please see our documentation This release does not have a single major new feature, but instead encompasses several small new methods and behavior changes. These changes should be clear improvements, but they will modify the formats of some outputs (like removing the header line when RDKitToolkitWrapper writes to a SMILES file) and will slightly change some numerical values (by, for example, correcting for partial charge rounding errors). Please read the release notes for a full summary of these. For help getting the OpenFF Toolkit running, see our installation instructions. Please report bugs, request features, or ask questions through our issue tracker. Please note that there may still be some changes to the API prior to a stable 1.0.0 release. | 9 |

In this letter, we present the results from subsequent X-ray and UV observations of the nuclear transient eRASSt J045650.3−203750 (hereafter, J0456−20). We detected five repeating X-ray and UV flares from J0456−20, marking it as one of the most promising repeating partial tidal disruption event (pTDE) candidates. More importantly, we also found rapid changes in the recurrence time, T<SUB>recur</SUB>, of the X-ray flares by modelling the long-term X-ray light curve of J0456−20. We found that T<SUB>recur</SUB> first decreased rapidly from about 300 days to around 230 days. It continued to decrease to around 190 days with an indication of a constant T<SUB>recur</SUB>, as evidenced by the latest three cycles. Our hydrodynamic simulations suggest that, in the repeating pTDE scenario, such a rapid evolution of T<SUB>recur</SUB> could be reproduced if the original star is a 1 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> main sequence star near the terminal age, losing nearly 80-90% of its mass during the initial encounter with a supermassive black hole (SMBH) of a mass around 10<SUP>5</SUP> M<SUB>⊙</SUB>. The inferred mass loss of 0.8-0.9 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> is higher than the estimated value of around 0.13 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> drawn from observations, which could be explained if the radiation efficiency is low (i.e. ≪0.1). Our results indicate that repeating pTDEs could be effective tools for exploring the dynamics around SMBHs beyond our own Galaxy. | 9 |

The enhancement of α elements such as oxygen is an important phase in the chemical evolution of the early Universe, with nebular material becoming enriched in these elements sooner than iron. Here, we present models which incorporate stellar spectra with α-enhanced compositions, focusing on the impact on the integrated light of young stellar populations, including those with large binary star fractions using the Binary Populations and Spectral Synthesis (BPASS) framework, while using Solar-scaled stellar evolution models. We find that broad spectrum outputs such as production of ionizing flux, the ultraviolet spectral slope and optical colours are only weakly affected by a change in $[\alpha /\rm {Fe}]$. A number of features such as ultraviolet line indices (e.g. at 1719 and 1853 Å) and optical line indices (such as MgB) are sensitive to such changes in composition for a continuously star-forming population and a single starburst population respectively. We find that at ages of more than 1 Gyr, α-enhanced stellar populations appear bluer than their Solar-scaled counterparts, and show expected sensitivity of optical line indices to composition, in agreement with previous work. The ultraviolet stellar absorption lines are relatively insensitive to subtleties in the abundances ratios, although with sufficient measurement precision, a combination of UV line indices may enable a simultaneous measurement of total metallicity mass fraction and $[\alpha /\rm {Fe}]$ in young stellar populations. The output models are designated as BPASS v2.3 and made available to the community with the aim of assisting interpretation of observations of high-redshift galaxies with the James Webb Space Telescope. | 9 |

The innermost regions of accretion disks around black holes are strongly irradiated by X-rays that are emitted from a highly variable, compact corona, in the immediate vicinity of the black hole<SUP>1-3</SUP>. The X-rays that are seen reflected from the disk<SUP>4</SUP>, and the time delays, as variations in the X-ray emission echo or `reverberate' off the disk<SUP>5,6</SUP>, provide a view of the environment just outside the event horizon. I Zwicky 1 (I Zw 1) is a nearby narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy<SUP>7,8</SUP>. Previous studies of the reverberation of X-rays from its accretion disk revealed that the corona is composed of two components: an extended, slowly varying component extending over the surface of the inner accretion disk, and a collimated core, with luminosity fluctuations propagating upwards from its base, which dominates the more rapid variability<SUP>9,10</SUP>. Here we report observations of X-ray flares emitted from around the supermassive black hole in I Zw 1. X-ray reflection from the accretion disk is detected through a relativistically broadened iron K line and Compton hump in the X-ray emission spectrum. Analysis of the X-ray flares reveals short flashes of photons consistent with the re-emergence of emission from behind the black hole. The energy shifts of these photons identify their origins from different parts of the disk<SUP>11,12</SUP>. These are photons that reverberate off the far side of the disk, and are bent around the black hole and magnified by the strong gravitational field. Observing photons bent around the black hole confirms a key prediction of general relativity. | 9 |

Galaxy clusters enable unique opportunities to study cosmology, dark matter, galaxy evolution, and strongly lensed transients. We here present a new cluster-finding algorithm, CluMPR (Clusters from Masses and Photometric Redshifts), that exploits photometric redshifts (photo-z's) as well as photometric stellar mass measurements. CluMPR uses a 2D binary search tree to search for overdensities of massive galaxies with similar redshifts on the sky and then probabilistically assigns cluster membership by accounting for photo-z uncertainties. We leverage the deep DESI Legacy Survey grzW1W2 imaging over one-third of the sky to create a catalogue of $\sim 300\, 000$ galaxy cluster candidates out to z = 1, including tabulations of member galaxies and estimates of each cluster's total stellar mass. Compared to other methods, CluMPR is particularly effective at identifying clusters at the high end of the redshift range considered (z = 0.75-1), with minimal contamination from low-mass groups. These characteristics make it ideal for identifying strongly lensed high-redshift supernovae and quasars that are powerful probes of cosmology, dark matter, and stellar astrophysics. As an example application of this cluster catalogue, we present a catalogue of candidate wide-angle strongly lensed quasars in Appendix C. The nine best candidates identified from this sample include two known lensed quasar systems and a possible changing-look lensed QSO with SDSS spectroscopy. All code and catalogues produced in this work are publicly available (see Data Availability). | 9 |

Extending for 50-200 pc in all directions from the Sun, the Local Cavity has been characterized as an old supernova bubble consisting of low-density million-degree plasma heated by supernova shocks. We summarize the arguments for and against this model and conclude that hydrogen in the Local Cavity is fully ionized, and the plasma near the Galactic plane is mostly warm (10,000-20,000 K) rather than hot (10<SUP>6</SUP> K). The brightest extreme-ultraviolet source detected in the EUVE all-sky survey is the star ϵ CMa. Its EUV radiation photoionizes the outer layers of the Local Interstellar Cloud and other nearby warm interstellar clouds despite the star's 124 pc distance. Pulsar dispersion measures indicate an electron density of 0.012 cm<SUP>-3</SUP> in the Local Cavity itself. At this density the Strömgren sphere of ϵ CMa is as large as the Local Cavity. We propose that the Local Cavity is an irregularly shaped Strömgren sphere containing a small percentage of hot gas likely in many filamentary structures. We also propose that shocks from recent supernovae encountered pre-existing Strömgren sphere gas, and that the partially ionized Local Interstellar Cloud and other nearby clouds could have been formed when supernova shocks encountered regions with relatively weak magnetic fields producing compression, higher density, and recombining hydrogen. <SUP>*</SUP> Based on observations made with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope obtained from the Data Archive at the Space Telescope Science Institute, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under NASA contract NAS AR-09525.01A.

A tidal disruption event (TDE) - when a star is destroyed by the immense gravitational field of a supermassive black hole - transforms a star into a stream of tidally shredded debris. The properties of this debris ultimately determine the observable signatures of tidal disruption events (TDEs). Here we derive a simple, self-similar solution for the velocity profile of the debris streams produced from TDEs, and show that this solution agrees extremely well with numerical results. Using this self-similar solution, we calculate an analytic, approximate expression for the radial density profile of the stream. We show that there is a critical adiabatic index that varies as a function of position along the stream above (below) which the stream is unstable (stable) to gravitational fragmentation. We also calculate the impact of heating and cooling on this stability criterion. | 9 |
