The radio-bright future of studying black holes
In recent years we witnessed tremendous progress in high frequency very long baseline radiointerferometry (VLBI). These developments were most notably marked by the first image of a supermassive black...

Bridging the Gap Between Galaxy and Star Formation with Star Clusters
Over the past decades, the discovery of a large number of young massive clusters (YMCs) in the local Universe and giant clumps in high-z galaxies suggests that clustered star formation is the dominant...

Dynamics and Origins of Planets Around Non-Solar-Type Stars
The search for extrasolar planets initially focused on Sun-like FGK main-sequence stars, but efforts have been made in recent years to search for planets around more massive stars in their giant phase...

Magnetars, a possible engine of FRBs--the first smoking gun from SGR J1935+2154
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are millisecond radio pulses detected from cosmological distances. A large number of models invoke extragalactic magnetars as the sources of these mysterious events. Magnetars...
