ABSTRACT We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of M 4—the closest globular cluster—that probe the lower Main Sequence down to the hydrogen‐burning limit. The unveiled stellar sequence reaches much fainter luminosities than previously possible, revealing a few extremely red objects that are consistent with brown dwarfs as cool as Teff∼1000K$

Clusters Stagnating During Condensation: Metastable Material or a Separate State of Matter?
Condensation stagnation, that is, the existence of a delay between nucleation and growth during the gas‐phase particle formation, is a crucial phenomenon, which manifests itself as the presence of supercritical clusters in resulting particulates. The light emission signature of stagnant clusters is identified in the magnesium particle flame in air, and,

Evolutionary Aspects of Circumstellar Matter in Binary Systems [PDF]
Several groups of close binary stars are considered in an attempt to explain their present state as a consequence of a large-scale mass transfer or mass loss in the past: Algol-like semidetached binaries, some shell stars (AX Mon), some binary X-ray sources (Cen X-3, Her X-1), the recurrent nova T CrB, helium-rich binaries v Sgr and KS Per, and the ...

The Presolar Grain Database. I. Silicon Carbide
The Presolar Grain Database (PGD) contains the vast majority of isotope data (published and unpublished) on presolar grains and was first released as a collection of spreadsheets in 2009.

Observations of Circumstellar Matter in Close Binary Systems [PDF]
Observational evidence for the existence of matter between the components of binary stars is summarized and discussed. Five kinds of evidence are considered: the presence of emission features in spectra; the distortion of velocity curves; spectrophotometry of variable absorption features in spectra; the distortion of light curves; changes of orbital ...

Ion‐Scale Characteristics of the Martian Magnetic Pile‐Up Boundary Layer
Abstract The Martian magnetic pile‐up boundary (MPB) delineates the interface between the magnetosheath and the induced magnetosphere, but its global ion‐scale characteristics remaining unclear. Utilizing a three‐dimensional Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, this study aims to reveal the features of the MPB layer, including magnetic field, current ...

JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—V. The White Dwarfs Cooling Sequence of M4
ABSTRACT We combine infrared (IR) observations collected by the James Webb Space Telescope with optical deep images by the Hubble Space Telescope taken ~20 years earlier to compute proper‐motion membership for the globular cluster (GC) M4 (NGC 6121) along its entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS).

Correlated Molybdenum, Ruthenium, and Barium Isotope Anomalies in Presolar Silicon Carbide Grains
We have analyzed molybdenum, ruthenium, and barium isotopes simultaneously in 55 individual presolar silicon carbide (SiC) grains from the Murchison CM2 meteorite using the Chicago Instrument for Laser Ionization (or CHILI).

Evidence from infrared observations of circumstellar matter around chromospherically active binaries* [PDF]
We analyse a sample of 12 RS CVn-type systems for which accurate photometry exists, extending from optical to near-infrared and even to IRAS bandpasses in some cases. We reconstruct the energy distribution expected from the binaries, taking into account the radii and spectral types of the components, and we compare them with the observed fluxes.

XMM‐Newton Observations of the Peculiar Be X‐Ray Binary A0538‐66
ABSTRACT A0538‐66 is a neutron star/Be x‐ray binary located in the Large Magellanic Cloud and, since its discovery in the 70s, it showed a peculiar behavior that makes it a unique object in the high‐mass x‐ray binaries scene: the extremely eccentric orbit (e=0.72$$ e=0.72 $$), the short spin period of the neutron star (P=69$$ P=69 $$ ms), the episodes ...
