U-Pb constraints on pulsed eruption of the Deccan Traps across the end-Cretaceous mass extinction
Two timelines for extinction The Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction that wiped out the nonavian dinosaurs 66 million years ago was correlated with two extreme events: The Chicxulub impact occurred at roughly the same time that massive amounts of lava were ...

Precise Measures of Orbital Period, Before and After Nova Eruption for QZ Aurigae [PDF]
For the ordinary classical nova QZ Aurigae (which erupted in 1964), we report 1317 magnitudes from 1912--2016, including four eclipses detected on archival photographic plates from long before the eruption.

Simultaneous Observation of a Flux Rope Eruption and Magnetic Reconnection during an X-class Solar Flare [PDF]
In this Letter, we present a spectacular eruptive flare (X8.2) associated with a coronal mass ejection on 2017 September 10 at the west limb of the Sun.

Xanthomas are localized lipid deposits in the skin, tendons and subcutaneous tissue associated with lipid abnormality. The hyperlipidemia responsible for this disorder can be caused by a primary genetic defect, a secondary disorder, or both. That kind of skin exanthema may be the first signal of cardiovascular risk.

Johann Kiessling (1839-1905) und die Erforschung atmosphärisch-optischer Erscheinungen
Die vorliegende Abhandlung will an Johann Kiessling erinnern, der sich mit den so viel Aufsehen erregenden Dämmerungen nach dem Krakatau-Ausbruch (1883) eingehend befaßte und nach deren physikalischer Erklärung suchte.

The 2011 Eruption of the Recurrent Nova T Pyxidis; the Discovery, the Pre-eruption Rise, the Pre-eruption Orbital Period, and the Reason for the Long Delay [PDF]
We report the discovery by M. Linnolt on JD 2455665.7931 (UT 2011 April 14.29) of the sixth eruption of the recurrent nova T Pyxidis. This discovery was made just as the initial fast rise was starting, so with fast notification and response by observers ...

Controls on explosive-effusive volcanic eruption styles
One of the biggest challenges in volcanic hazard assessment is to understand how and why eruptive style changes within the same eruptive period or even from one eruption to the next at a given volcano.

First High-resolution Spectroscopic Observations of an Erupting Prominence Within a Coronal Mass Ejection by the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) [PDF]
Spectroscopic observations of prominence eruptions associated with coronal mass ejections (CMEs), although relatively rare, can provide valuable plasma and 3D geometry diagnostics.
