Mean gas opacity for circumstellar environments and equilibrium temperature degeneracy

open access: yes, 2014
Context. In a molecular cloud dust opacity typically dominates over gas opacity, yet in the vicinities of forming stars dust is depleted, and gas is the sole provider of opacity.

Toward an efficient second‐order method for computing the surface gravitational potential on spherical‐polar meshes

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 8, October 2024.
Abstract Astrophysical accretion discs that carry a significant mass compared with their central object are subject to the effect of self‐gravity. In the context of circumstellar discs, this can, for instance, cause fragmentation of the disc gas, and—under suitable conditions—lead to the direct formation of gas‐giant planets.

Enhanced biodegradation of polyaromatic hydrocarbons in manufactured gas plant wastes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Scientists at the Institute of Gas Technology (IGT) have focused on enhancing destruction of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) present as pollutants in manufactured gas plant (MGP) soils.

A Multiwavelength ALMA View of Gas and Dust in Binary Protoplanetary System AS 205: Evidence of Dust Asymmetric Distribution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of multiwavelength dust emissions at 3.1 and 1.3 mm, along with molecular line emissions of CO(2–1), CO(3–2), ^13 CO(3–2), and C ^18 O(3–2) at spatial resolutions of 7–45 au toward the ...

OH/IR stars in the inner Galactic bulge

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) play important roles in a number of astronomical contexts. To quantify these roles, it is necessary to establish the mass-loss characteristics of stars as they evolve up and beyond the AGB. Aims.

Pre-main-sequence Brackett Emitters in the APOGEE DR17 Catalog: Line Strengths and Physical Properties of Accretion Columns

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Very young ( t ≲ 10 Myr) stars possess strong magnetic fields that channel ionized gas from the interiors of their circumstellar disks to the surface of the star.

First direct detection of large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on asteroid (162173) Ryugu samples: An interstellar heritage

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 4, Issue 4, October 2024.
Large free aromatic species, with up to 61 carbon atoms, were detected in grains of the Ryugu carbonaceous asteroid using ultra‐sensitive two‐step laser mass spectrometry. This discovery confirms the presence of large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the interstellar medium and provides new information on the formation and evolution of organic ...

Gas Flows and Mass Accretion Rates in Eight Dippers: HD 142666, HD 143006, HD 145718, V935 Sco, DoAr 25, EPIC 204638512, EPIC 205151387, and EPIC 203850058

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
One of the scenarios used to explain the dipper phenomenon in stars is having the innermost disk regions being close to the line of sight to the star—inclined greater than 60°—regardless of the inclination of the outermost disk (“misaligned” or “broken ...

Electron microscopy observations of the diversity of Ryugu organic matter and its relationship to minerals at the micro‐ to nano‐scale

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 59, Issue 8, Page 2023-2043, August 2024.
Abstract Transmission electron microscopy analyses of Hayabusa2 samples show that Ryugu organic matter exhibits a range of morphologies, elemental compositions, and carbon functional chemistries consistent with those of carbonaceous chondrites that have experienced low‐temperature aqueous alteration.
