Unusual Space Weathering on a CE-5 Metal Grain Indicates Deceptive Surface Signatures of M-type Asteroids

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
M-type asteroids are historically thought to be exposed metallic cores of differentiated planets with a composition dominated by pure iron and nickel. However, recent spectral and radar observations reveal an insufficient number of M-type asteroids in ...

Utilizing Citizen Contribution to Track Cosmic Material Entry into Earth's Atmosphere: Insights from Mexico

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional
In this paper, the importance of information posted on social networks in the study of meteoroid entry into the Earth’s atmosphere is shown. This kind of networks work thanks to the information shared by many people, which is stored on different servers.

Photoluminescence and Cathodoluminescence of the Solid Cometary Substance

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2019
We have proposed that solar ultraviolet and corpuscular radiations may excite photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence of the solid cometary substance including mineral halos of comets.

Finding the aten asteroids posing potential danger for Earth

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2007
We made the research of orbit evolutions of 321 aten asteroids on the 400 years time interval (1800–2200). We found five asteroids which come close to the Earth at a distance less than 150000 km.

Identifying LL Chondrite Near-Earth Asteroids Using LL Chondrite Reflectance Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Most near-Earth objects are thought to originate from the collisional fragments of the main asteroid belt. One question that remains to be resolved is the proportion of near-Earth objects sampling the core area material of the parent body to the outer ...

Contemporary disasters may not kill more women than men: an empirical inquiry into sex‐differentiated fatalities in the twenty‐first century

open access: yesDisasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

Combustion and Pyrolysis EA‐IRMS Techniques to Determine the δ2H of Diamonds

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 10, 30 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Diamonds are generally considered to be metasomatic minerals originating from the Earth's mantle. They formed through the interaction of carbon‐bearing fluids or melts with the surrounding deep lithology. Most knowledge about the formation of diamonds comes from studying their mineral inclusions or stable isotopes.
