Signature of the presence of a third body orbiting around XB 1916-053 [PDF]
The ultra-compact dipping source \object{XB 1916-053} has an orbital period of close to 50 min and a companion star with a very low mass (less than 0.1 M$_{\odot}$). The orbital period derivative of the source was estimated to be $1.5(3) \times 10^{-11}$

Identifying MESSENGER Magnetospheric Boundary Crossings Using a Random Forest Region Classifier
Abstract We present a new list of bow shock and magnetopause crossings based on automated region classification for the MESSENGER (Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry and Ranging) mission. We fit a random forest model to magnetometer and ephemeris data to classify the solar wind, magnetosheath, and magnetosphere regions surrounding Mercury.

Reconstructing Magnetotail Reconnection Events Using Data Mining is Feasible and Repeatable
Abstract Recently, Stephens et al. (2023), https://doi.org/10.1029/2022ja031066 utilized a data mining (DM) algorithm, applied to 26 years of magnetospheric magnetometer observations coupled with a flexible formulation of the magnetospheric magnetic field, to reconstruct the global configuration of the magnetotail when the Magnetospheric MultiScale ...

The Fettered and the Flea: A New Poem by Edmund Waller☆
Abstract This contribution explores for the first time a 22‐line poem in a British Library manuscript, ‘To a young lady that kept a flea chay’nd in a box’, which can be convincingly ascribed to Edmund Waller. Its most famous relative is Donne’s ‘The Flea’, but its ancestry differs.

Astrometric positions for 18 irregular satellites of giant planets from 23 years of observations
The irregular satellites of the giant planets are believed to have been captured during the evolution of the solar system. Knowing their physical parameters, such as size, density, and albedo is important for constraining where they came from and how ...
