Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...

Diffusive Instabilities in Dusty Disks: Linear Growth and Nonlinear Breakdown

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We revisit the diffusive instability in dusty disks that arises when the dust mass diffusivity and/or viscosity decrease sufficiently steeply with increasing dust density. Our updated model includes an incompressible viscous gas that responds azimuthally

Dust dynamic pressure and magnetopause displacement: reasons for non-detection [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2013
In a recent paper, Treumann and Baumjohann (2011) propose that the contribution of dust particles to the solar wind dynamic pressure can cause large compressions of the Earth's magnetopause and suggest that this occurs when Earth encounters ...

Far-Infrared to Millimeter Astrophysical Dust Emission. II: Comparison of the Two-Level Systems (TLS) model with Astronomical Data

open access: yes, 2011
In a previous paper we proposed a new model for the emission by amorphous astronomical dust grains, based on solid-state physics. The model uses a description of the Disordered Charge Distribution (DCD) combined with the presence of Two-Level Systems ...

Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

General Implicit Runge–Kutta Integrators for Multifluid Gas–Dust Aerodynamic Drag

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The integration of aerodynamic drag is a fundamental step in simulating dust dynamics in hydrodynamical simulations. We propose a novel integration scheme, designed to be compatible with Strang splitting techniques, which allows for the straightforward ...

Diagnosing 0.1–10 au Scale Morphology of the FU Ori Disk Using ALMA and VLTI/GRAVITY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We report new Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array Band 3 (86–100 GHz; ~80 mas angular resolution) and Band 4 (146–160 GHz; ~50 mas angular resolution) observations of the dust continuum emission toward the archetypal and ongoing accretion burst ...

Vertical profiling of shock attenuation at the Rochechouart impact structure, France

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Rochechouart, south‐west France, is a complex impact structure. Here, we present the first report of shock barometry of quartz from what are likely parautochthonous basement units at depth, based on samples from the 2017 C.I.R.I.R drilling campaign. The crystallographic orientations of 725 sets of PDFs in 512 quartz grains in samples from four

Toward a General Theory of Grain Alignment and Disruption by Radiative Torques and Magnetic Relaxation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We generalize the magnetically enhanced radiative torque (MRAT) theory for astrophysical environments described by a dimensionless parameter U /( n _1 T _2 ) with U the radiation strength, n _1  =  n _H /(10 cm ^−3 ) the normalized hydrogen density, and ...

Formation of PAHs and Carbonaceous Solids in Gas-Phase Condensation Experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Carbonaceous grains represent a major component of cosmic dust. In order to understand their formation pathways, they have been prepared in the laboratory by gas-phase condensation reactions such as laser pyrolysis and laser ablation.
