Model Choice Matters for Age Inference on the Red Giant Branch

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galactic archaeology relies on accurate stellar parameters to reconstruct the Galaxy's history, including information on stellar ages. While the precision of data has improved significantly in recent years, stellar models used for age inference have not ...

Recovery From Anorexia Nervosa: A Concept Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Nursing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Despite decades of research, we still know surprisingly little about how best to bring about lasting recovery from anorexia nervosa (AN). Furthermore, there is a lack of consensus in the research and treatment communities about what constitutes recovery from AN, or whether “recovery” is even an appropriate term to use in this context.

TESS Subgiant and Lower-red-giant Asteroseismology in the Continuous Viewing Zones

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Asteroseismology, the study of stellar oscillations, and stellar modeling both offer profound insights into the fundamental properties and evolution of stars.

Very Large Spectroscopic Surveys with the VLT

open access: yes, 2008
Recently, it has been recognised that very large spectroscopic surveys (several million spectra) are required to advance our understanding of Dark Energy (via baryonic wiggles) and the detailed history of our Local Group of galaxies (via Galactic ...

Minor epic: Notes toward a different “Anthropoetry”

open access: yesAnthropology and Humanism, Volume 51, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Anthropologists have often turned to poetry as a means of accessing emotional registers of which conventional academic prose is unable to avail. In doing so, they have tacitly conflated poetry with lyric poetry, today probably the most widely practiced poetic genre, associated in particular with the expression of inner feelings and subjectival

A Tale of Two Disks: Mapping the Milky Way with the Final Data Release of APOGEE

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present new maps of the Milky Way disk showing the distribution of metallicity ([Fe/H]), α -element abundances ([Mg/Fe]), and stellar age, using a sample of 66,496 red giant stars from the final data release (DR17) of the Apache Point Observatory ...

Cosmic Ray Production of $^6$Li by Structure Formation Shocks in the Early Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We discuss the production of the element $^6$Li in the early Galaxy by cosmic rays accelerated at structure formation shocks, driven by the hierarchical merging of sub-Galactic halos during Galaxy formation.

The APO-K2 Catalog. II. Accurate Stellar Ages for Red Giant Branch Stars across the Milky Way

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present stellar age determinations for 4661 red giant branch stars in the APO-K2 catalog, derived using mass estimates from K2 asteroseismology from the K2 Galactic Archaeology Program and elemental abundances from the Apache Point Galactic Evolution ...

StarHorse: A Bayesian tool for determining stellar masses, ages, distances, and extinctions for field stars

open access: yes, 2018
Understanding the formation and evolution of our Galaxy requires accurate distances, ages and chemistry for large populations of field stars. Here we present several updates to our spectro-photometric distance code, that can now also be used to estimate ...

Estimating Soil Electrical Parameters in the Canadian High Arctic From Impedance Measurements of the MIST Antenna Above the Surface

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract The MIST experiment aims to detect the cosmological 21‐cm signal through sky observations at 25–125 MHz using a wide‐beam antenna. The antenna is mounted above the soil and the beam characteristics are highly dependent on the soil's electrical properties.
