Open Letter to the Pontiff and Vatican Cardinals on Pervasively Corrupt Earth, Planetary, and Astrophysical Science

open access: yesAdvances in Social Sciences Research Journal, 2023
Five hundred years ago the Roman Catholic Church wrongly opposed science. In my fifty years as a scientist, I have observed the Catholic Church reaching out to science, wholly unaware of widespread corruption and cartel-like behavior under guise of science, which leads, I allege, to the Vatican aiding and abetting activities that are not only anti ...

Speckle Observations With PISCO in Calern (France): III. Astrometric Measurements of Visual Double Stars in 2019 and New or Revised Orbits for STT531 AB, STT77 AB, STF1338 AB, COU1746, STT260, A1109 AB, HU1291, and A632 AB

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present relative astrometric measurements of visual double stars, made in 2019 with the speckle camera PISCO at the 1‐m Epsilon telescope of the C2PU facility (Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur, Calern site). Our observing list contains orbital couples as well as double stars whose motion is still uncertain.

Revisiting Variable Stars Toward the Globular Cluster NGC 6496 With ATLAS and Gaia Photometry

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We revisit 13 variable stars in the field of the metal‐rich globular cluster NGC 6496, discovered by Abbas et al. (2015; Astronomical Journal 149:40) (hereafter referred to as “MA15”) via time‐series data, spanning 2 years. We improve upon the MA15 characterization of the variables using ATLAS time‐series photometry data, spanning 8 years, in ...

The Rich Chemistry of Ionized Methanol With Sulfur Dioxide: Pathways to Prebiotic and Elusive Species in Earth's Atmosphere and Space

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The reaction between the methanol radical cation and sulfur dioxide is remarkably fast and forms several ionic and neutral products (HOSOH+, CH2OSO+, CH2OH+, CH2O, H2O, HSO2). The chemistry goes beyond simple proton or hydrogen transfer, revealing a close interaction between the two species, relevant to atmospheric and astrochemical environments where ...

Temperature‐Dependent Kinetics of Plasma‐Based CO2 Conversion: Interplay of Electron‐Driven and Thermal‐Driven Chemistry

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The transformation of CO2 into chemical building blocks is essential for a net‐zero energy future. Plasma‐chemical processing offers promising potential to achieve this. Here, we explore a temperature‐dependent plasma‐chemical reaction mechanism, revealing a shift from electron‐driven to thermal‐driven CO2 conversion regimes.

Evidence of Free‐Bound Transitions in Warm Dense Matter and Their Impact on Equation‐of‐State Measurements

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Warm dense matter (WDM) is now routinely created and probed in laboratories around the world, providing unprecedented insights into conditions achieved in stellar atmospheres, planetary interiors, and inertial confinement fusion experiments.

Chemical Kinetics of 2‐, 4‐, and 2,4‐Seleno‐Uracils at Low Temperatures: Tautomerizations and Rotamerizations on Inert Matrices

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the interstellar medium, chemical reactions proceed under conditions vastly different to those on Earth; these include extremely low temperatures and densities and take place in the gas phase and on water–ice grains. Understanding the energetics and more importantly the kinetics of such reactions is of relevance to the consequences on how ...

The Great Cosmic Silence: What Does the Fermi Paradox Tell About the Future of Humanity?

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how institutional time horizons shape the long‐term survival prospects of human technological civilisation. While research on global catastrophic and existential risks has expanded, the temporal structures of political‐economic institutions remain underexamined.

Design Considerations for Visualization Transitions of 3D Spatial Data in Hybrid AR‐Desktop Environments

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present design considerations for animated transitions of the appearance of 3D spatial datasets in a hybrid Augmented Reality‐desktop context. Such hybrid interfaces combine both traditional and immersive displays to facilitate the exploration of 2D and 3D data representations in the environment in which they are best displayed.

The 40K‐K dating system: 1. Improving data interpretation using new model calculations

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The 40K‐K cosmic‐ray exposure (CRE) dating system offers a promising method for determining exposure ages of iron meteorites by combining the radioactive cosmogenic 40K with the stable cosmogenic isotopes 39K and 41K. However, earlier applications relied on semi‐empirical production models and inconsistent analytical data sets, limiting their ...
