A Near-Earth Object Model Calibrated to Earth Impactors
The Astronomical JournalThe population of Earth-impacting meteoroids and their size-dependent orbital elements are key to understanding the origin of meteorites and informing planetary defense efforts. Outstanding questions include the role of collisions in depleting meteoroids

Why a Hydrogen fireball should not be modelled as a BLEVE event
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2022 The rapid increasing interest in the usage of Hydrogen has obviously triggered a lot of safety related questions. Apart from non-trivial questions about failure frequencies and ignition probabilities, the consequence modelling of potential events also ...

Modeling of Energy Release at the Final Stage of the Meteoroid Movement
Open Astronomy, 2016 The paper continues to build upon the author’s previous research on fireballs fragmentation. A model of the sudden explosive destruction of the cosmic body at the height of the maximum flash is used.

Green fireballs and ball lightning
, 2010 This paper presents evidence of an apparent connection between ball lightning and a green fireball. On the evening of the 16 May 2006 at least three fireballs were seen by many people in the skies of Queensland, Australia.

Updated facility‐level inventory and LCIA of the public electricity grid in Ontario, Canada
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract As the composition of Ontario's electricity grid will change over time, it is important to have a comprehensive understanding of the environmental impacts of Ontario's electricity grid as it stands today. However, publicly available information on impacts of Ontario's electricity grid is available only in aggregate from government sources.

Particular aspects of calculating affecting factors of fireballs emerging from aircraft crash
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 The article reveals an algorithm of calculating the heat loads which emerge during fireball-involving accidents. By way of illustration it considers a situation when a heavy aircraft crashes in the vicinity of a typical reactor building of a nuclear ...

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Few proteins have inspired as much curiosity as kinesin. Since its discovery 40 years ago, kinesin has become one of the best understood molecular machines in biology, yet it continues to reveal new questions about how cells organize and move their contents.

European Physical Journal C: Particles and FieldsIn this study, we investigate the gravitational collapses of rotating stellar systems accounting for gamma-ray burst jet progenitors. Based on the virial theorem of hadron collisional relaxations and Newtonian slow-rotating approximation, we analyze the ...
