abstract
In this brief communication we provide the rationale for, and the outcome of the International Astronomical Union (IAU) resolution vote at the XXIX-th General Assembly in Honolulu, Hawaii, in 2015, on recommended nominal conversion constants for selected solar and planetary properties. The problem addressed by the resolution is a lack of established conversion constants between solar and planetary values and SI units: a missing standard has caused a proliferation of solar values (e.g., solar radius, solar irradiance, solar luminosity, solar effective temperature and solar mass parameter) in the literature, with cited solar values typically based on best estimates at the time of paper writing. As precision of observations increases, a set of consistent values becomes increasingly important. To address this, an IAU Working Group on Nominal Units for Stellar and Planetary Astronomy formed in 2011, uniting experts from the solar, stellar, planetary, exoplanetary and fundamental astronomy, as well as from general standards fields to converge on optimal values for nominal conversion constants. The effort resulted in the IAU 2015 Resolution B3, passed at the IAU General Assembly by a large majority. The resolution recommends the use of nominal solar and planetary values, which are by definition exact and are expressed in SI units. These nominal values should be understood as conversion factors only, not as the true solar/planetary properties or current best estimates. Authors and journal editors are urged to join in using the standard values set forth by this resolution in future work and publications to help minimize further confusion.

Corrected empirical limits show the most massive galaxies never exceed the theoretical baryonic maximum of 0.16 times halo virial mass, keeping observations consistent with LambdaCDM at all redshifts.
Oblique filament collisions lead to gravitational collapse of the compressed cloud when post-collision |gravitational energy| exceeds kinetic plus thermal plus magnetic energies, with lower angles and lower velocities favoring hub-filament formation.
High-resolution magnetic field maps of M17 SW reveal gravity-dominated energy budget with magnetic fields regulating collapse and accretion channels in a near-equipartition state.
A conditional variational autoencoder is trained on public kilonova light curves to enable rapid parameter inference for binary neutron star merger models in under three hours total.
Observational study of 100 LMC GMCs finds median 13CO(2-1)/12CO(2-1) line ratio of 0.078, nearly linear with luminosity, and higher in clouds hosting IR-bright young stellar objects.
Reports results from two searches for new radio lenses in existing surveys and discusses the completeness of the population usable for constraining dark matter properties via astrometric perturbations.
JWST finds infrared counterparts for nearly all micro-Jy radio sources, with star formation explaining the radio output in roughly 79% of cases after accounting for non-linear luminosity relations.
Late-time radio rebrightening in SN 2012ap is consistent with either progenitor mass-loss variation producing a density enhancement or an off-axis energetic jet viewed at large angle, potentially reclassifying it as GRB-like rather than weakly engine-driven.
A single galaxy cluster lenses two quasars (one Type I at z=1.524, one dust-obscured Type II at z=1.939) into four images each, yielding a projected mass of ~3.3e14 solar masses within 500 kpc and time delays of hundreds to over 1000 days.
EMCEE outperforms GP and MAF in recovering true H0 from mock cosmic chronometer datasets, with GP most sensitive to data points via delete-d jackknife analysis.
