Interaction of infalling solid bodies with primordial atmospheres of disk-embedded planets

, 2018
Planets that form early enough to be embedded in the circumstellar gas disk accumulate thick atmospheres of nebular gas. Models of these atmospheres need to specify the surface luminosity (i.e. energy loss rate) of the planet.

First Coincident Radar and Optical Observations of a Meteor Radio Afterglow

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract It has been hypothesized that Meteor Radio Afterglows (MRAs) occur due to resonant transition radiation (RTR) where suprathermal electrons emit as they pass through electron density inhomogeneities in a turbulent plasma. Meteor trails are thought to produce suprathermal electrons through anion oxidation, which can be identified through meteor ...

Tra lingua dell’astronomia e lingua comune

Cuadernos de Filología Italiana, 2015
Il presente articolo analizza fenomeni di passaggio dal settoriale al comune e viceversa nell’ambito dell’astronomia. Lo studio permette di rintracciare suggestive forme di dialogo e non cesure tra passato e presente, tra tecnico e comune, un dialogo ...

Drelów, the 13th and latest meteorite fall in Poland—A typical L6 chondrite with shock veins

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 466-486, March 2026.
Abstract On Tuesday, February 18, 2025, at 18:04:14 local time, residents of Poland observed a bright fireball registered by many Polish fireball stations belonging to the Skytinel Network established a few months before by Mateusz Żmija. Thus, the meteoroid's orbit, atmospheric trajectory, and the strewn field were calculated, and over 70 fragments ...

Al‐Khadhaf: The first camera‐observed (H5–6) meteorite fall from Oman

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 522-547, March 2026.
Abstract A fireball camera system installed in 2022 by the Oman Meteorite Monitoring Project (OMMP) as part of the Global Fireball Observatory (GFO) recorded a 3.2 s fireball on March 8, 2022 at 8:15 p.m. UTC. A meteoroid of 4 ± 2 kg entered the atmosphere at 14.0 km/s.

The Paleomineralogy of the Hadean Eon Revisited

Life, 2018
A preliminary list of plausible near-surface minerals present during Earth’s Hadean Eon (>4.0 Ga) should be expanded to include: (1) phases that might have formed by precipitation of organic crystals prior to the rise of predation by cellular ...

The Chelyabinsk superbolide: a fragment of asteroid 2011 EO40?

, 2013
Bright fireballs or bolides are caused by meteoroids entering the Earth's atmosphere at high speed. On 2013 February 15, a superbolide was observed in the skies near Chelyabinsk, Russia.

Radiosonde‐to‐Space (R2S) Atmospheric Specifications: Bridging Observations and Models for Infrasound Propagation

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Infrasound propagation is inherently asymmetric and time‐dependent, making accurate atmospheric specifications essential for predicting when and where signals arrive. The Naval Research Laboratory's Ground‐to‐Space (G2S) model is widely used for this purpose, yet discrepancies between G2S predictions and observations highlight the need for ...
