# 15 - One or more bound planets per Milky Way star from microlensing observations
- A statistical analysis of microlensing data from 2002–07 reveals that stars in the Milky Way are orbited by planets as a rule, rather than an exception.

# 16 - An absence of ex-companion stars in the type Ia supernova remnant SNR 0509−67.5
- The central region of the supernova remnant SNR 0509−67.5 in the Large Magellanic Cloud is shown to contain no ex-companion star, which suggests it was formed by an explosion resulting from the merger of two white dwarf stars.
