High atmospheric pressure rescues plant growth under humidity stress: A model for climate‐resilient deep underground agriculture

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
High atmospheric pressure (120 kPa) in deep underground counteracts humidity‐induced physiological stress in plants, stabilizing water balance and enhancing antioxidative defenses. This synergy boosts biomass despite elevated humidity, demonstrating sustainable deep underground agriculture potential under climate uncertainty.

The Mineralogical Connection between M- and K-type Asteroids as Indicated by Polarimetry

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Polarimetry has the capacity to provide a unique probe of the surface properties of asteroids. Trends in polarization behavior as a function of wavelength trace asteroid regolith mineral properties that are difficult to probe without measurements in situ

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

Synergistic approach of asteroid exploitation and planetary protection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The asteroid and cometary impact hazard has long been recognised as an important issue requiring risk assessment and contingency planning. At the same time asteroids have also been acknowledged as possible sources of raw materials for future large-scale ...

A Laboratory Spectroscopic, Photometric, and Polarimetric Dataset of Three Ordinary Chondrites, Including the Recent Maoming Fall: Grain-size and Simulated Space-weathering Effects

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a coordinated laboratory optical data set for three equilibrated ordinary chondrites (OCs; LL5/6, L6, and H6), including the recently witnessed Maoming fall of 2025 May 28, to investigate the coupled effects of grain size, surface structure ...

Sm and Gd Isotopic Shifts in Eucrites and Implications for Their Cosmic-Ray Exposure History

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The isotopic compositions of Sm and Gd in eight eucrites—five from a desert, Dar al Gani (DaG) 380, DaG 391, DaG 411, DaG 443, and DaG 480, and three from nondesert areas, Juvinas, Millibillillie, and Stannern—were determined to understand the cosmic-ray

Local Structures of Se and Br in Cretaceous–Paleogene Boundary Sediments and Concentration Effects of Ferrihydrite Originating From Impact Ejecta

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Chemical states of Se and Br atoms in the KPg boundary sediments from Stevns Klint were studied using XAFS spectroscopy. The high concentrations of Se4+ could become an index of the degree to which the global environment was soiled with dust and ash derived from impact ejecta or volcanic eruptions.

The Secular Dynamical Evolution of Binary Asteroid System (65803) Didymos Post-DART

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The successful impact of NASA’s DART mission with Dimorphos, the secondary body of binary asteroid system (65803) Didymos, altered the attitude, shape, and orbit of Dimorphos.

Ichnology of the Rhätsandstein in the Exter Formation (Triassic), Germany

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Trace fossils from the Rhätsandstein of southern Germany record repeated colonization of high‐energy shallow‐marine substrates before the Triassic–Jurassic transition. The assemblage reflects environmental and preservational controls on ichnodiversity.

Ejecta distribution and momentum transfer from oblique impacts on asteroid surfaces

open access: yes, 2022
NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission will impact its target asteroid, Dimorphos, at an oblique angle that will not be known prior to the impact.
