Abstract We present the results of a comprehensive survey conducted among members of the Spanish Astronomical Society (Sociedad Española de Astronomía, SEA) to assess the well-being, professional satisfaction and family–work balance of researchers in astronomy. The survey addressed multiple aspects of professional life, including happiness, career stability, publication pressure and access to childcare services during scientific meetings.

Abstract The mergers of binary compact objects such as neutron stars and black holes are of central interest to several areas of astrophysics, including as the progenitors of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs)1, sources of high-frequency gravitational waves (GW)2 and likely production sites for heavy element nucleosynthesis via rapid neutron capture (the r-process)3. Here we present observations of the exceptionally bright gamma-ray burst GRB 230307A.

Abstract Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are divided into two populations1,2; long GRBs that derive from the core collapse of massive stars (for example, ref. 3) and short GRBs that form in the merger of two compact objects4,5. Although it is common to divide the two populations at a gamma-ray duration of 2 s, classification based on duration does not always map to the progenitor.
