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 ...

On the Ontology of Composites in Abhidharma Buddhism

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 112, Issue 3, Page 679-693, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Abhidharma Buddhism maintains that the only ultimately real (paramārtha) entities in the universe are dharmas, which are simples. What then is the ontological status of composites on this theory? One possibility is that Abhidharma Buddhists deny the reality of composites.

Bolide Infrasound Signal Morphology and Yield Estimates: A Case Study of Two Events Detected by a Dense Acoustic Sensor Network

The Astronomical Journal
Two bolides (2016 June 2 and 2019 April 4) were detected at multiple regional infrasound stations, with many of the locations receiving multiple detections.

Amapari Marker Band Metal‐Enrichments: Potential Mechanisms and Implications for Surface and Subsurface Water and Weathering in Gale Crater

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract NASA's Curiosity rover is exploring a 5 km tall sedimentary mound that is hypothesized to record the transition from a warm and wet (phyllosilicate‐rich) to a cold and drier (sulfate‐rich) Mars. Evidence of magnesium sulfate‐bearing rock has shown that Curiosity has crossed through this phyllosilicate‐sulfate transition.

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 ...

A Panspermia Origin for Venus Cloud Life

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Decades of study have hinted at the astrobiological potential of Venus's cloud layers. This potential is often cast as stemming from the idea that the Venusian surface was clement in the past. As the climate changed, life then remained in, or perhaps evolved and migrated to, the last habitable niche: the altitudes above ∼50 km with Earth‐like ...

Seeding the Solar System with Life: Mars, Venus, Earth, Moon, Protoplanets

Open Astronomy, 2020
In the space of the entire universe, the only conclusive evidence of life, is found on Earth. Although the ultimate source of all life is unknown, many investigators believe Earth, Mars, and Venus may have been seeded with life when these planets, and ...

Terrestrial ages of meteorites from the Atacama Desert (Chile) and insights into the past meteorite flux to Earth

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 644-663, April 2026.
Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...

BOLIDE PHYSICAL THEORY WITH APPLICATION TO PN AND EN FIREBALLS. [PDF]

, 2001
Using data on 22 'precise bolides' with up to 882 individual points on their trajectories and using data on 29 'bright bolides' and on 10 artificial meteors, we tried to derive dependence of ablation and shape-density coefficients, and of luminous ...

Satellite observation of the dust trail of a major bolide event over the Bering Sea on December 18, 2018

, 2020
Context. One of the most energetic bolide events in recent decades was detected by the US Government sensors (USGS) over remote areas of the Bering Sea on December 18, 2018, 23:48 UT. No ground-based optical observations exist. Aims.
