A study of the quasar PDS 456 links changes around 1 keV to a patchy, low-ionization ultrafast outflow crossing the X-ray-emitting region. Under that geometric interpretation, the wind lies well beyond a separately estimated high-ionization phase, narrowing the leading explanations for how it was accelerated.

A small observational study of blue field candidates confirmed nine ultra-diffuse galaxies and eight other low-surface-brightness galaxies. After an aperture correction, all targets were described as lying within the star-forming main sequence, although the corrected star-formation rates were treated as upper limits.

A model of the compact source Punctum finds that a primordial black hole with a dark-matter spike could fit its reported millimeter emission, polarization and size, but the calculation does not confirm that interpretation.

An observational preprint of NGC 4438 finds that bulk motion dominates the estimated energy in its compact nuclear bubbles, while a larger outflow has comparable thermal and magnetic support. Different power-estimation methods also produce sharply different results.

A model of lobed AGN feedback places the strongest time-averaged heating near the central few kiloparsecs. It finds modeled heating-cooling balance in seven of ten mock clusters, but cooling still exceeds AGN heating above 100 kiloparsecs in seven cases.

A catalog from eROSITA's first survey lists 350 possible ultraluminous X-ray sources in HECATE galaxies, but uneven coverage, modeled contamination from active galactic nuclei and unresolved blends limit what it can show.

A wavelet-based method separated Galactic dust from cosmic infrared background anisotropies in three Planck sky patches, including a low-signal region, while preserving the contamination statistics used to test the result.

A model-based analysis of 251,462 star-forming galaxies finds a mildly super-linear low-mass main sequence and a better match to the observed flattening of the low-mass galaxy stellar mass function.

A study of 5,124 massive galaxies found 247 spiral galaxies with quenched central cores whose properties resembled quenched early-type systems. The authors say the pattern supports a possible rebuilding of spiral disks around older centers, although the data do not follow any galaxy through that change.

A modelling preprint tests HCm v6.2 on AGN optical spectra. It finds close agreement with direct ionic measurements, but modelled total sulphur is about 0.3 dex higher than correction-based values, while LINER results change with the assumed ionising spectrum.

A model-based analysis of about 365 hours of H.E.S.S. observations finds significant curvature in the Galactic Center ridge gamma-ray spectrum and places the preferred cosmic-ray injection site near Sgr A*. Several competing spectral shapes fit equally well, so the result narrows the possibilities without settling the spectrum’s exact form.

A model built from young-cluster trajectories suggests that star formation near the Sun came in bursts, followed by a smoother pattern of core-collapse supernovae. The inferred events are concentrated in several nearby regions, but the absolute rates depend on which stars and clusters the catalogues capture.
