A planet’s helium atmosphere streams ahead of its orbit, while infrared observations reveal the hidden rhythms of its star. New work also shows how neutron-star tilt can reshape X-ray light, traces the past of massive blue supergiants, and maps cloudy and clear zones on the hot Jupiter WASP-43 b.

Image: Investigating a lopsided planetary cradle within a cosmic cloud in the Gum Nebula
Astronomers have conducted a detailed study of AT Pyx, a young star surrounded by a planet-forming disk located inside a unique environment called a cometary globule. Using advanced instruments like the VLT and ALMA, researchers discovered that the disk is not perfectly circular but eccentric, featuring distinct spiral arms that may be shaped by a hidden planet with a mass anywhere from a fraction of Jupiter up to three times its size. The study also suggests that the system might be a binary...

Image: Gigantic dust rings around the star MWC 480 may hold the seeds for new giant planets
A detailed survey of the young star MWC 480 has revealed a massive disk of dust and gas where new planets are likely forming. By combining data from the ALMA and VLA telescopes, researchers identified a prominent dust ring located 95 astronomical units from the star—more than double the distance of Pluto from our Sun. This specific ring contains enough solid material to build the cores of several giant planets. The study also discovered a new...

Astronomers have successfully analyzed the atmosphere of HAT-P-44 b, a gas giant similar in size and temperature to Saturn, located in a tight orbit around its star. Using the William Herschel Telescope, the team detected the chemical signature of sodium and found evidence of water vapor within the planet's envelope. The findings suggest the planet has a relatively clear atmosphere at high altitudes, free from thick clouds, and a chemical com...

Image: How mountains and plateaus may prevent atmospheric collapse on rocky exoplanets
A new study reveals that the surface terrain of rocky planets orbiting M-dwarf stars plays a crucial role in their climate and habitability. These planets are often tidally locked, meaning one side always faces the star while the other remains in darkness. Researchers found that steep mountains and high plateaus create stationary atmospheric waves that disrupt air circulation. This process strengthens winds that carry moisture to the cold nig...

Image: Deep dive into the mysterious atmosphere of the warm Neptune Gliese 436 b
Astronomers have conducted the most detailed study to date of GJ 436 b, a famous 'warm Neptune' exoplanet located 33 light-years away. Despite its similarities to our own Neptune, this world orbits its red dwarf star so closely that its year lasts only 2.6 days. New high-resolution observations found no traces of expected gases like water vapor or methane, leading scientists to conclude that the planet is either shrouded in extremely high-alt...

Image: Failed magnetic flip: The intense space weather of active star AD Leo
Astronomers monitoring the active red dwarf AD Leo recently watched for a rare event: a total reversal of its magnetic poles, similar to the 11-year cycle seen on our Sun. However, the 'flip' failed to happen. Instead, the star's magnetic field simplified and strengthened into a more stable configuration. Despite this lack of a reversal, the study shows that AD Leo is a violent neighbor; it loses mass through stellar winds at a rate ten times...

Magnetic fields act as brakes and heaters in the atmosphere of ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-18 b

Image: Magnetic fields act as brakes and heaters in the atmosphere of ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-18 b
Researchers have discovered that the magnetic field of the giant planet WASP-18 b plays a dramatic role in controlling its weather. Because the planet is so close to its star, its atmosphere becomes 'ionized' or electrically charged. This allows the planet's magnetic field to act like a physical brake on high-altitude winds, creating a 'stop and go' effect in the atmospheric flow. This magnetic drag, combined with frictional heating, creates ...

Image: Discovery of a hot rocky world with Earth-like density orbiting a young star
Astronomers have confirmed the existence of TOI-5734b, a 'hot sub-Neptune' planet orbiting a star slightly smaller and cooler than our Sun. Despite being about twice the size of Earth and nine times its mass, the planet has a density remarkably similar to our home world. This suggests that TOI-5734b is likely a rocky planet that has lost most of its original atmosphere due to the heat of its nearby young star. Located in a system only about 5...

Image: Stellar paternity tests: Tracing runaway stars back to their galactic nurseries
Most massive stars are born within crowded clusters in the flat disk of our Milky Way, yet some are found drifting far above or below this plane. By tracing the movements of 39 high-latitude B-type stars and nearly 450 star clusters using Gaia satellite data, researchers have successfully linked five of these 'orphaned' stars to their original birthplaces. These stars were likely kicked out of their home clusters millions of years ago at high...

Image: Chandra telescope captures first image of a protective bubble around a Sun-like star
Astronomers using the Chandra X-ray Observatory have achieved a scientific first by resolving the 'astrosphere'—a protective bubble created by stellar winds—around a young, Sun-like star named HD 61005. Located about 119 light-years away, this star is a much more active version of our own Sun as it appeared in its youth. The study revealed a glowing halo of X-rays extending 220 astronomical units wide, caused by the star's wind crashing into t...
