Pressure as a Limiting Factor for Life

open access: yesLife, 2016
Facts concerning the stability and functioning of key biomolecular components suggest that cellular life should no longer be viable above a few thousand atmospheres (200–300 MPa).

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Automated Software for the Detection of Bolide Events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The proper detection and analysis of bolide events ensures that we will once day be prepared for a big, catastrophic impact by a meteor. The data obtained from the analysis of these detected smaller events will provide important information about the ...

A search for hydroacoustic signals from bolides

open access: yesIcarus
Here we present a survey aimed at detecting hydroacoustic signals from fireballs using the six hydrophone stations operated as part of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) International Monitoring System. We identified 30 fireballs where propagation paths to stations exist.

Meteoric CaO and carbon smoke particles collected in the upper stratosphere from an unanticipated source

open access: yesTellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2013
Nanometre CaO and pure carbon smoke particles were collected at 38-km altitude in the upper stratosphere in the Arctic during June 2008 using DUSTER (Dust in the Upper Stratosphere Tracking Experiment and Retrieval).

Il Bolide di Giovanni Pascoli: struttura interna e significato di una poesia di ‘confine’

open access: yes, 2016
This essay contains a close examination of Giovanni Pascoli’s Il bolide and particularly tries to demonstrate its expressive and verbal strategies. It seeks to explain how the relationship among the categories of verbal tense, mood and aspect may give to

New insights into the evolutionary history of biological nitrogen fixation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Nitrogenase, which catalyzes the ATP-dependent reduction of dinitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3), accounts for roughly half of the bioavailable nitrogen supporting extant life.
