New worlds, new chemistry, new ceramics
Space missions have documented the chemical diversity and complexity of planets and moons in our own solar system. Astronomers have found thousands of exoplanets orbiting other stars in our galaxy, whose diversity implies immense chemical, ceramic, geological, and mineralogical complexity.

Big Bang Nucleosynthesis hunts chameleon dark matter
We study the chameleon field dark matter, dubbed scalaron, in F (R) gravity in the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) epoch. With an R 2-correction term required to solve the singularity problem for F (R) gravity, we first find that the scalaron dynamics is ...

Laboratory exploration of mineral precipitates from Europa's subsurface ocean
Precipitation experiments from a model Europan ocean solution subjected to fast and slow freezing suggest that the highly hydrated Na–Mg sulfate phase Na2Mg(SO4)2·16H2O is one of the lowest‐temperature mineral phases likely to be stable on Europa's surface and may therefore be astrobiologically significant.The precipitation of hydrated phases from a ...

Reheating Temperature and Gauge Mediation Models of Supersymmetry Breaking [PDF]
For supersymmetric theories with gravitino dark matter, the maximal reheating temperature consistent with big bang nucleosynthesis bounds arises when the physical gaugino masses are degenerate.

Non-universal scalar-tensor theories and big bang nucleosynthesis [PDF]
We investigate the constraints that can be set from big-bang nucleosynthesis on two classes of models: extended quintessence and scalar-tensor theories of gravity in which the equivalence principle between standard matter and dark matter is violated.

Underground measurement at LUNA found no evidence for a low-energy resonance in the 6Li(p, γ)7Be reaction [PDF]
The 6Li(p,γ)7Be reaction is involved in all three main nucleosynthesis scenarios: Big Bang Nucleosynthesis, the interaction of cosmic rays with interstellar matter, and stellar nucleosynthesis.

Primordial Nucleosynthesis: Theory and Observations [PDF]
We review the Cosmology and Physics underlying Primordial Nucleosynthesis and survey current observational data in order to compare the predictions of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis with the inferred primordial abundances. From this comparison we report on the

THE 2H(alpha, gamma)6LI REACTION AT LUNA AND BIG BANG NUCLEOSYNTHETIS
The 2H(α, γ)6Li reaction is the leading process for the production of 6Li in standard Big Bang Nucleosynthesis. Recent observations of lithium abundance in metal-poor halo stars suggest that there might be a 6Li plateau, similar to the well-known Spite ...

Constraining neutrino physics with BBN and CMBR [PDF]
We perform a likelihood analysis of the recent results on the anisotropy of Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation from the BOOMERanG and DASI experiments to show that they single out an effective number of neutrinos in good agreement with standard Big ...
