How Green Banks can create multiple types of value in the transition to net zero emissions
Abstract Current levels of investment are insufficient to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement, and private sector funding shortfalls are acute. Despite this, little research has been undertaken into Green Banks, a new form of institution which mixes public and private institutional logics to mobilise additional private investment in the net zero ...

From ambivalence to vulnerability: Recognition and the subject
Abstract Recent writings on recognition and ambivalence highlight the limits of narrowly dyadic and teleological accounts of recognition. In this article, I extend the work on ambivalent recognition by proffering a conception of recognition as vulnerable.

Positron flux and γ-ray emission from Geminga pulsar and pulsar wind nebula [PDF]
Nearby pulsars have been suggested as sources of $\sim$TeV $e^+/e^-$ Cosmic Ray (CR) excess on Earth. The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) detected extended TeV emission regions in the direction of two nearby middle-aged pulsars, Geminga ...

The Spatial and Emission Properties of the Large [O iii] Emission Nebula Near M31
Drechsler et al. reported the unexpected discovery of a 1.°5 long [O iii ] emission nebula 1.°2 southeast of the M31 nucleus. Here we present additional images of this large emission arc, called the Strottner–Drechsler–Sainty Object (SDSO), along with ...

Detection of polarized gamma-ray emission from the Crab nebula with the Hitomi Soft Gamma-ray Detector† [PDF]
We present the results from the Hitomi Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD) observation of the Crab nebula. The main part of SGD is a Compton camera, which in addition to being a spectrometer, is capable of measuring polarization of gamma-ray photons.

A PeVatron Candidate: Modeling the Boomerang Nebula in X-ray Band
Pulsar wind nebula (PWN) Boomerang and the associated supernova remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7 are among candidates for the ultra-high-energy (UHE) gamma-ray counterparts published by LHAASO.

Erratum: Modelling the ArH+ emission from the Crab Nebula [PDF]
We have performed combined photoionization and photodissociation region (PDR) modelling of a Crab Nebula filament subjected to the synchrotron radiation from the central pulsar wind nebula, and to a high flux of charged particles; a greatly enhanced ...

Mapping NGC 7027 in New Light: CO+ and HCO+ Emission Reveal Its Photon- and X-Ray-dominated Regions
The young and well-studied planetary nebula (PN) NGC 7027 harbors significant molecular gas that is irradiated by luminous, pointlike UV (central star) and diffuse (shocked nebular) X-ray emission.

Improved Measurements of the IXPE Crab Polarization
X-ray polarization from the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) provides an important new probe of the geometry of the pulsar emission zone and of particle acceleration in the surrounding pulsar wind nebula.

The PAH Emission Characteristics of the Reflection Nebula NGC 2023 [PDF]
We present 5–20 μm spectral maps of the reflection nebula NGC 2023 obtained with the Infrared Spectrograph SL and SH modes on board the Spitzer Space Telescope, which reveal emission from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), C60, and H2 superposed on
