A Swift analysis of the Eras tour set list and implications for astrophysics research (Taylor's version) [PDF]
Popular culture plays a significant role in shaping public interest in science, and Taylor Swift's discography frequently incorporates astrophysics terminology. This study examines the occurrence of astrophysics-related words in her lyrics and their representation in the Eras tour set list.

Archaeology, Epigraphy and Skyscape: Keys to Understanding Dadanite and Lihyanite Conception of Time
ABSTRACT Dadan, the capital of the kingdom of Dadan and, later on, of Lihyan, was an important trading hub and place of worship in North‐West Arabia during the first millennium BCE. Located in the AlUla valley (Saudi Arabia), with naturally available fresh water, fertile soil and relative ease of travel through it, people gathered there for trade ...

Alternative Approaches for Estimating Highest‐Density Regions
Summary Among the variety of statistical intervals, highest‐density regions (HDRs) stand out for their ability to effectively summarise a distribution or sample, unveiling its distinctive and salient features. An HDR represents the minimum size set that satisfies a certain probability coverage, and current methods for their computation require ...

Review of asteroid, meteor, and meteorite‐type links
Abstract With the goal to determine the origin of our meteorites in the asteroid belt, video and photographic observations of meteors have now tracked 75 meteorite falls. Six years ago, there were just hints that different meteorite types arrived on different orbits, but now, the number of orbits (N) is high enough for distinct patterns to emerge.

The NOvA neutrino experiment, designed to measure electron neutrino appearance in a muon neutrino beam, also has a wide-reaching astrophysics program as a result of its unique size, granularity and position. Unlike previous long-baseline neutrino experiments, the 14 \, kt NOvA far detector is on the surface, which enables a search for a low-mass ...

Shock‐heated graphite in three IAB iron meteorites—Implications on the formation of diamond
Abstract Iron meteorites, originating from the deepest parts of their parent bodies and separated during major break‐up events, surprisingly rarely contain diamonds despite experiencing similar pressure–temperature conditions as diamond‐bearing ureilites. In this study, graphite from three non‐magmatic IAB iron meteorites Canyon Diablo, Campo del Cielo,

Abstract Impact‐generated hydrothermal systems and postimpact crater lake systems are well‐documented geological phenomena; however, evidence of hydrothermal venting into impact crater lake systems has rarely been reported. We investigated the well‐preserved contact between hydrothermally altered impact melt‐bearing breccia (outer/surficial suevite ...

Exploring the origins of magnetization within the Chicxulub crater upper peak ring
Abstract Large terrestrial impacts may produce vast subsurface hydrothermal systems, capable of generating conditions favorable to the origin of life. Modeling suggests that these systems may persist for >1 million years for basin‐sized craters; however, direct experimental constraints on hydrothermal system duration are needed.

Microfaults: Abundant shear deformation and frictional melting in chondrites
Abstract The majority of ordinary chondrite (OC) meteorites record some amount of textural evidence for impact‐induced deformation. Melt veins in some shocked samples have been compared to terrestrial impact‐related pseudotachylites, which form by frictional melting of host rock.

An overview of the petrography and petrology of particles from aggregate sample from asteroid Bennu
Abstract The OSIRIS‐REx mission returned a sample of regolith from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu in September 2023. We present preliminary in situ investigations of the petrology and petrography of selected particles ranging in size from 0.5 to 3 mm.
