The H2 Glow of a Quiescent Molecular Cloud Observed with JWST
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe report JWST MIRI/MRS observations of the H _2 S (1) 17.04 μ m transition in two regions in the boundary of the Taurus molecular cloud. The two regions, denoted “Edge” (near the relatively sharp boundary of the ^13 CO J = 1 → 0 emission) and “Peak ...

Absorption-line Observations of and CO in Sight Lines Toward the Vela and W28 Supernova Remnants
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Supernova remnants act as particle accelerators, providing the cosmic-ray protons that permeate the interstellar medium and initiate the ion–molecule reactions that drive interstellar chemistry. Enhanced fluxes of cosmic-ray protons in close proximity to

Sampling the volcanic plumes at Io: Impact speeds and shock conditions
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 241-271, February 2026.Abstract The desire to sample material from the interior of Io, by flying through its volcanic plumes, requires consideration of the flyby speed and the types of sample collection techniques that can be utilized. Low speed collection (1–2.5 km s−1) would require an orbit around Io itself, which is unlikely due to the accumulated radiation dose that ...

Evidence for Spatially Distinct Galactic Dust Populations
The Astrophysical JournalWe present an implementation of a Bayesian mixture model using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo techniques to search for the spatial separation of Galactic dust populations. Utilizing intensity measurements from the Planck High Frequency Instrument, we apply this

Heat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 764-774, January 2026.ABSTRACT This review explores the impact of gravitational instability on convective heat transfer, integrating existing research results and theoretical models. Gravitational instability is vital in promoting or hindering convective actions in different systems, such as atmospheric events, ocean currents, and industrial processes.

Entropy Export and Chemical Reactions in Plasmas
Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.In a non‐equilibrium plasma, energy is transferred to molecules by electron‐impact (1), collisions among excited molecules (2), and Joule heating (3). The entropy balance for this open system relates the energy available per molecule to changes in entropy, which determines plasma‐based gas conversion. ABSTRACT Is plasma truly a “fourth state of matter”?
