Formation of Asteroid (16) Psyche by a Giant Impact
Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche is the largest likely metal‐rich asteroid in the Solar System and the target of the NASA Psyche mission. The mission aims to determine whether the asteroid is the core of a differentiated planetesimal that lost its mantle via a giant impact.

Altitude Profile and Isotopic Composition for N2 From Pioneer Venus Mass Spectra
Abstract We report the highest resolution altitude profile and isotopic composition for N2 at Venus, to date. These results were obtained through re‐analysis of data acquired by the Pioneer Venus Large Probe Neutral Mass Spectrometer (LNMS). The N2 is non‐uniformly mixed across the clouds and sub‐cloud atmosphere (∼59–15 km) yet uniformly mixed across ...

Satellites and Small Bodies With ALMA: Insights Into Solar System Formation and Evolution
Abstract Our understanding of the formation and evolution of planetary systems has made major advances in the past decade. This progress has been driven in large part by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which has given us an unprecedented view of solar system bodies themselves, and of the structure and chemistry of forming ...

Astrometric detection of exoplanets from the ground
Astrometry is a powerful technique to study the populations of extrasolar planets around nearby stars. It gives access to a unique parameter space and is therefore required for obtaining a comprehensive picture of the properties, abundances, and ...

The Power of a Name: Toward a Unified Approach to Naming Space Weather Events
Abstract Our increasing reliance on technology vulnerable to space weather effects underscores the urgent need for effective public communication about these phenomena. While scientific research thrives on precise technical language, broader public engagement necessitates a more accessible and memorable approach.

Friends Not Foes: Strong Correlation between Inner Super-Earths and Outer Gas Giants
The connection between outer gas giants and inner super-Earths reflects their formation and evolutionary histories. Past work exploring this link has suggested a tentative positive correlation between these two populations, but these studies have been ...

The Robo-AO-2 facility for rapid visible/near-infrared AO imaging and the demonstration of hybrid techniques [PDF]
We are building a next-generation laser adaptive optics system, Robo-AO-2, for the UH 2.2-m telescope that will deliver robotic, diffraction-limited observations at visible and near-infrared wavelengths in unprecedented numbers.

Abstract Earth's radiation belts are the regions where highly energetic charged particles are trapped by Earth's magnetic field, posing significant risks to the satellites and other space‐based technologies. Understanding the dynamics of the radiation belts is critical not only for advancing fundamental plasma physics but also for predicting and ...

Exoplanet Occurrence Rate with Age for FGK Stars in Kepler
We measure the exoplanet occurrence rate as a function of isochrone and gyrochronology ages using confirmed and candidate planets identified in Q1–17 DR25 Kepler data. We employ Kepler's pipeline detection efficiency to correct for the expected number of
