(Noble Gas)n -NC+ Molecular Ions in Noble Gas Matrices: Matrix Infrared Spectra and Electronic Structure Calculations. [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry, 2022
CCSD(T) calculated Ng−C−N+ structures and observed frequencies. The bond lengths on top are in Å unit, the natural charges in blue below atoms, and the observed C−N stretching frequencies (cm−1) in a matrix of noble gas on right side. Reactions of laser ablated Zn, Cd, and Hg atoms with HCN have provided an opportunity to observe photoionization of CN,

The X-ray jet in the Crab Nebula: radical implications for pulsar theory? [PDF]

open access: bronzeApJ 562, 494 (2001), 2002
The recent Chandra image of the Crab nebula shows a striking, axisymmetric polar jet. It is shown that jets are formed in axisymmetric, magnetized pulsar winds and that the jet luminosity scales relative to the total as (\gamma_0\sigma_{eq})^{-4/3}, where \sigma_{eq} is the ratio of Poynting flux to particle kinetic energy output at the equator at the ...

Optimizing the angular resolution of the HEGRA telescope system to study the emission region of VHE gamma rays in the Crab Nebula [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2000
The HEGRA system of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes provides for specially selected classes of events an angular resolution of better than 3'. By comparing the measured angular distribution of TeV gamma rays from the Crab Nebula with the distribution expected on the basis of Monte Carlo simulations, and with measurements of gamma rays from the

The Crab Nebula at 850 microns [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2001
Observations of the Crab Nebula at 850 micron made with the "Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array" (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope are presented. A variety of chop-throws and scanning directions was used in these observations, to well sample structure over a range of scales and directions. The resulting image, which was restored using

Ar+ ArH+ Reactive Collisions of Astrophysical Interest: The Case of 36Ar

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 24, Issue 20, October 17, 2023., 2023
A complete theoretical investigation of the 36Ar+36ArH+ reactive collision involving the most abundant Argon isotope in the interstellar medium. Abstract The reactive collision between 36Ar and the 36ArH+ species has been investigated by means of quantum mechanical (QM), quasiclassical trajectories (QCT) and statistical quantum mechanical (SQM ...

Metal in mesosiderites: Evidence for redox and fractional crystallization

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 58, Issue 9, Page 1211-1228, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Mesosiderites are an amalgamation of crustal silicates and molten metal, and their formational history is not well understood. It is widely believed that redox reactions occurred in the mesosiderites during metal–silicate mixing. Previous studies evaluated redox reactions by studying the silicates within mesosiderites, but little attention has

Long‐Term Density Trend in the Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere From Occultations of the Crab Nebula With X‐Ray Astronomy Satellites

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 128, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
Abstract We present long‐term density trends of the Earth's upper atmosphere at altitudes between 71 and 116 km, based on atmospheric occultations of the Crab Nebula observed with X‐ray astronomy satellites, ASCA, RXTE, Suzaku, NuSTAR, and Hitomi. The combination of the five satellites provides a time period of 28 years from 1994 to 2022.

A search for runaway stars in 12 Galactic supernova remnants

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 342, Issue 3, Page 553-577, March 2021., 2021
Runaway stars can result from core‐collapse supernovae in multiple stellar systems. If the supernova disrupts the system, the companion is ejected with its former orbital velocity. A clear identification of a runaway star can yield the time and place of the explosion, as well as orbital parameters of the pre‐supernova binary system.

A new approach to generate a catalogue of potential historical novae

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 341, Issue 1, Page 79-98, January 2020., 2020
Abstract Ancient Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese observers left us records of celestial sightings, the so‐called “guest stars” dated up to ∼2500 years ago. Their identification with modern observable targets could open interesting insights into the long‐term behavior of astronomical objects, as shown by the successful identification of eight galactic ...
