Observational astrophysics

open access: yes, 1995
Combining a critical account of observational methods (telescopes and instrumentation) with a lucid description of the Universe, including stars, galaxies and cosmology, Smith provides a comprehensive introduction to the whole of modern astrophysics ...

Kolmogorov analysis of pulsar TOA

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The Kolmogorov stochasticity parameter (KSP) as a sensitive descriptor of the degree of randomness of signals was used to analyze the properties of the NANOGrav pulsar timing data associated with a stochastic gravitational wave background.

Revisiting olivine‐phyric shergottites: Pyroxene crystallization pressure and the role of undercooling

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2466-2475, October 2026.
Abstract Shergottites are the most abundant meteorites from Mars and a major source of information on magma reservoirs, transport, and eruption, particularly in the late Hesperian northern hemisphere. Conflicting interpretations have arisen on the crystallization conditions of pyroxene in olivine‐phyric shergottites.

High‐pressure phase preservation in ordinary L‐chondrite melt veins: Evidence for control by post‐shock thermal evolution

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2549-2566, October 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the petrography and mineralogy of three L‐type ordinary chondrite meteorites: Northwest Africa (NWA) 4137 (L6), Homestead (L5), and Kunashak (L6). We studied the shock‐related deformation features in the matrix and the characteristics of the melt veins, including the presence or absence of high‐pressure (HP) phases. Our

Oxygen isotope thermometry and composition of aqueous fluids within the parent body of asteroid (101955) Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2567-2591, October 2026.
Abstract We report on the petrography and oxygen isotopic compositions from in situ analyses of carbonates (Ca‐carbonate, dolomite, and Fe‐rich magnesite), magnetite, and apatite in particles from asteroid Bennu. Using oxygen isotope thermometry of Ca‐carbonate, dolomite, and magnetite, we estimated crystallization temperatures and the oxygen isotopic ...

Estimating past fluid pH and evaporative conditions in Gale crater using terrestrial analog samples from Death Valley, CA

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2531-2548, October 2026.
Abstract Boron and lithium have been observed in Ca‐sulfate veins of Gale crater. These elements are highly water mobile and can inform us regarding the aqueous processes that may have taken place in Gale crater. However, the analysis of B in Gale crater is limited to low‐Fe rocks and minerals due to spectral interference of Fe with B in ChemCam data ...

Lens Modeling of STRIDES Strongly Lensed Quasars Using Neural Posterior Estimation

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Strongly lensed quasars can be used to constrain cosmological parameters through time-delay cosmography. Models of the lens masses are a necessary component of this analysis.

Probes of multimessenger astrophysics: charged cosmic rays, neutrinos, γ-rays and gravitational waves

open access: yes, 2018
"I have taught from and enjoyed the first edition of the book. The selection of topics is the best I've seen. Maurizio Spurio gives very clear presentations using a generous amount of observational data. " James Matthews (Louisiana State University) This
