A Detection of Circumgalactic Dust at Megaparsec Scales with Maximum Likelihood Estimation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
One of the more surprising astrophysical discoveries of the past decade has been the presence of enormous quantities of dust at megaparsec distances from galaxies, which has important implications for galaxy evolution, the circumgalactic and ...

Spherical nonthermal pulsational mode stability thermo-statistically moderated with extra-negative ions

open access: yesFundamental Plasma Physics
The presence of diverse negative ions is well-known to modify different collective waves and instabilities in diverse space and astrophysical environments.

BICEP/Keck. XVI. Characterizing Dust Polarization through Correlations with Neutral Hydrogen

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We characterize Galactic dust filaments by correlating BICEP/Keck and Planck data with polarization templates based on neutral hydrogen (H i ) observations.

Origin and formation of a chondritic xenolith in Krymka (LL3.2, breccia): Indications for a late formation of the accretionary breccia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract An unusual chondritic xenolith was found in two sequentially prepared thin sections of a sample from the Krymka (LL3.2) chondrite. The xenolith has a rounded, slightly deformed shape of about 5 mm in apparent diameter and is partially surrounded by a double rim made of an inner fine‐grained silicate‐rich rim and an outer sulfide‐rich rim.

Inhomogeneous Dust Biases Photometric Redshifts and Stellar Masses for LSST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Spectral energy distribution (SED) modeling is one of the main methods to estimate galaxy properties, such as photometric redshifts, z , and stellar masses, M _* , for extragalactic imaging surveys.

Particle simulation of the strong magnetic field effect on dust particle charging process

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
A particle-in-cell simulation is modeled and run on a dusty plasma to determine the effect of the magnetic field on the process of dust-particle charging through electron–ion plasma.

Nanoscale space weathering features in mature lunar soil revealed by TEM and APT

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Space weathering significantly alters the optical, chemical, and structural properties of lunar regolith at micro‐ and nanoscales; yet detailed nanoscale variability within individual soils remains underexplored. Here we apply transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe tomography to four mineral grains (olivine, ilmenite, and two ...

Theoretical Determination of the Binding Energies of Methanol and Related Species onto Amorphous Solid Water Ice

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The formation and survival of complex organic molecules (COMs) in cold interstellar environments depends on their interactions with icy dust grain surfaces.

Consistent Modeling of Nonequilibrium Dust Sublimation and the Interactions with Dust Evolution in the Inner Regions of Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The inner regions of protoplanetary disks are host to the sublimation of dust grains, a process traditionally modeled using equilibrium thermodynamics.

The first discovery of a shocked, metasomatised CV3 chondrule‐fragment in a (Al,Cu)‐bearing micrometeorite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.
