We present calibrations for star formation rate (SFR) indicators in the ultraviolet, mid-infrared, and radio-continuum bands, including one of the first direct calibrations of 150 MHz as an SFR indicator. Our calibrations utilize 66 nearby star-forming galaxies with Balmer-decrement-corrected {{H}}α luminosities, which span five orders of magnitude in SFR and have absolute magnitudes of -24< {M}<SUB>r</SUB>< -12. Most of our photometry and spectrophotometry are measured from the same region of each galaxy, and our spectrophotometry has been validated with SDSS photometry, so our random and systematic errors are small relative to the intrinsic scatter seen in SFR indicator calibrations. We find that the Wide-field Infrared Space Explorer W4 (22.8 μm), Spitzer 24 μm, and 1.4 GHz bands have tight correlations with the Balmer-decrement-corrected Hα luminosity, with a scatter of only 0.2 dex. Our calibrations are comparable to those from the prior literature for L <SUP>∗</SUP> galaxies, but for dwarf galaxies, our calibrations can give SFRs that are far greater than those derived from most previous literature. | 9 |

The architecture and evolution of planetary systems are shaped in part by stellar flybys. Within this context, we look at stellar encounters that are too weak to immediately destabilize a planetary system but are nevertheless strong enough to measurably perturb the system's dynamical state. We estimate the strength of such perturbations on secularly evolving systems using a simple analytic model and confirm those estimates with direct N-body simulations. We then run long-term integrations and show that even small perturbations from stellar flybys can influence the stability of planetary systems over their lifetime. We find that small perturbations to the outer planets' orbits are transferred between planets, increasing the likelihood that the inner planetary system will destabilize. Specifically, our results for the Solar system show that relative perturbations to Neptune's semimajor axis of order 0.1 per cent are strong enough to increase the probability of destabilizing the Solar system within 5 Gyr by one order of magnitude. | 9 |

A case is found where all three possible pairs of combinations between these two neutron star branches are present for the total mass of M =2.7 M<SUB>⊙</SUB> of the observed merger event GW170817.

In this work, we report the discovery and characterization of PSR J1411+2551, a new binary pulsar discovered in the Arecibo 327 MHz Drift Pulsar Survey. Our timing observations of the radio pulsar in the system span a period of about 2.5 years. This timing campaign allowed a precise measurement of its spin period (62.4 ms) and its derivative (9.6 ± 0.7) × 10<SUP>-20</SUP> s s<SUP>-1</SUP> from these, we derive a characteristic age of >9.1 Gyr and a surface magnetic field strength of <2.6 × 10<SUP>9</SUP> G. These numbers indicate that this pulsar was mildly recycled by accretion of matter from the progenitor of the companion star. The system has an eccentric (e = 0.17) 2.61 day orbit. This eccentricity allows a highly significant measurement of the rate of advance of periastron, \dot{ω } =0.07686+/- 0.00046^\circ {{yr}}<SUP>-1</SUP>. Assuming general relativity accurately describes the orbital motion, this implies a total system mass M = 2.538 ± 0.022 M <SUB>⊙</SUB>. The minimum companion mass is 0.92 M <SUB>⊙</SUB> and the maximum pulsar mass is 1.62 M <SUB>⊙</SUB>. The large companion mass and the orbital eccentricity suggest that PSR J1411+2551 is a double neutron star system; the lightest known to date including the DNS merger GW170817. Furthermore, the relatively low orbital eccentricity and small proper motion limits suggest that the second supernova had a relatively small associated kick; this and the low system mass suggest that it was an ultra-stripped supernova. | 9 |
With the purpose of assessing classic spectroscopic methods on high-resolution and high signal-to-noise ratio spectra in the near-infrared wavelength region, we selected a sample of 65 F-, G-, and K-type stars observed with CARMENES, the new, ultra-stable, double-channel spectrograph at the 3.5 m Calar Alto telescope. We computed their stellar atmospheric parameters (T<SUB>eff</SUB>, log g, ξ, and [Fe/H]) by means of the STEPAR code, a PYTHON implementation of the equivalent width method that employs the 2017 version of the MOOG code and a grid of MARCS model atmospheres. We compiled four Fe I and Fe II line lists suited to metal-rich dwarfs, metal-poor dwarfs, metal-rich giants, and metal-poor giants that cover the wavelength range from 5300 to 17 100 Å, thus substantially increasing the number of identified Fe I and Fe II lines up to 653 and 23, respectively. We examined the impact of the near-infrared Fe I and Fe II lines upon our parameter determinations after an exhaustive literature search, placing special emphasis on the 14 Gaia benchmark stars contained in our sample. Even though our parameter determinations remain in good agreement with the literature values, the increase in the number of Fe I and Fe II lines when the near-infrared region is taken into account reveals a deeper T<SUB>eff</SUB> scale that might stem from a higher sensitivity of the near-infrared lines to T<SUB>eff</SUB>. | 9 |

We report a $5.3\sigma $ detection of the gravitational lensing effect of cosmic voids from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Data Release 12 seen in the Planck 2018 cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing convergence map. To make this detection, we introduce new optimal techniques for void stacking and filtering of the CMB maps, such as binning voids by a combination of their observed galaxy density and size to separate those with distinctive lensing signatures. We calibrate theoretical expectations for the void lensing signal using mock catalogs generated in a suite of 108 full-sky lensing simulations from Takahashi et al. Relative to these templates, we measure the lensing amplitude parameter in the data to be A<SUB>L</SUB> = 1.10 ± 0.21 using a matched-filter stacking technique and confirm it using an alternative Wiener-filtering method. We demonstrate that the result is robust against thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich contamination and other sources of systematics. We use the lensing measurements to test the relationship between the matter and galaxy distributions within voids and show that the assumption of linear bias with a value consistent with galaxy clustering results is discrepant with observation at ∼3σ; we explain why such a result is consistent with simulations and previous results, and is expected as a consequence of void selection effects. We forecast the potential for void CMB lensing measurements in future data from the Advanced ACT, Simons Observatory, and CMB-S4 experiments, showing that, for the same number of voids, the achievable precision improves by a factor of more than 2 compared to Planck. | 9 |

Rich in H ii regions, giant molecular clouds are natural laboratories to study massive stars and sequential star formation. The Galactic star-forming complex W33 is located at l=∼ 12\buildrel{\circ}\over{.} 8 and at a distance of 2.4 kpc and has a size of ≈ 10 pc and a total mass of ≈ (0.8-8.0) × {{10}<SUP>5</SUP>} M <SUB>⊙ </SUB>. The integrated radio and IR luminosity of W33—when combined with the direct detection of methanol masers, the protostellar object W33A, and the protocluster embedded within the radio source W33 main—mark the region as a site of vigorous ongoing star formation. In order to assess the long-term star formation history, we performed an infrared spectroscopic search for massive stars, detecting for the first time 14 early-type stars, including one WN6 star and four O4-7 stars. The distribution of spectral types suggests that this population formed during the past ∼2-4 Myr, while the absence of red supergiants precludes extensive star formation at ages 6-30 Myr. This activity appears distributed throughout the region and does not appear to have yielded the dense stellar clusters that characterize other star-forming complexes such as Carina and G305. Instead, we anticipate that W33 will eventually evolve into a loose stellar aggregate, with Cyg OB2 serving as a useful, albeit richer and more massive, comparator. Given recent distance estimates, and despite a remarkably similar stellar population, the rich cluster Cl 1813-178 located on the northwest edge of W33 does not appear to be physically associated with W33. | 9 |

We present a detailed study of KIC 2306740, an eccentric double-lined eclipsing binary system. Kepler satellite data were combined with spectroscopic data obtained with the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope (WHT). This allowed us to determine precise orbital and physical parameters of this relatively long period (P = 10.3°) and slightly eccentric (e = 0.3) binary system. The physical parameters have been determined to be M<SUB>1</SUB> = 1.194 ± 0.008 M<SUB>⊙</SUB>, M<SUB>2</SUB> = 1.078 ± 0.007 M<SUB>⊙</SUB>, R<SUB>1</SUB> = 1.682 ± 0.004 R<SUB>⊙</SUB>, R<SUB>2</SUB> = 1.226 ± 0.005 R<SUB>⊙</SUB>, L<SUB>1</SUB> = 2.8 ± 0.4 L<SUB>⊙</SUB>, L<SUB>2</SUB> = 1.8 ± 0.2 L<SUB>⊙</SUB>, and orbital separation a = 26.20 ± 0.04 R<SUB>⊙</SUB> through simultaneous solutions of the Kepler light curves and WHT radial velocity data. Binarity effects were extracted from the light curve in order to study intrinsic variations in the residuals. Five significant and more than 100 combination frequencies were detected. We modeled the binary system assuming nonconservative evolution models with the Cambridge STARS (TWIN) code, and we show the evolutionary tracks of the components in the $\mathrm{log}L\mbox{--}\mathrm{log}T$ plane, the $\mathrm{log}R\mbox{--}\mathrm{log}M$ plane, and the $\mathrm{log}P\mbox{--}\mathrm{age}$ plane for both spin and orbital periods together with eccentricity e and $\mathrm{log}{R}_{1}$ . The model of the nonconservative processes in the code led the system to evolve to the observed system parameters in roughly 5.1 Gyr. | 9 |

The ubiquitous turbulence in astrophysical plasmas is important for both magnetic reconnection and reconnection acceleration. We study the particle acceleration during fast 3D turbulent reconnection with reconnection-driven turbulence. Particles bounce back and forth between the reconnection-driven inflows due to the mirror reflection and convergence of strong magnetic fields. Via successive head-on collisions, the kinetic energy of the inflows is converted into accelerated particles. Turbulence not only regulates the inflow speed but also introduces various inflow obliquities with respect to the local turbulent magnetic fields. As both the energy gain and probability of the escape of particles depend on the inflow speed, the spectral index of particle energy spectrum is not universal. We find it in the range of ≈2.5-4, with the steepest spectrum expected at a strong guide field, i.e., a small angle between the total incoming magnetic field and the guide field. Without scattering diffusion needed for confining particles, the reconnection acceleration can be very efficient at a large inflow speed and a weak guide field. | 9 |
