Measuring the vertical age structure of the Galactic disc using asteroseismology and SAGA [PDF]
The existence of a vertical age gradient in the Milky Way disc has been indirectly known for long. Here, we measure it directly for the first time with seismic ages, using red giants observed by Kepler. We use Stroemgren photometry to gauge the selection

ABSTRACT Objectives Grotta del Poggio is a key site for exploring the Middle Paleolithic in southern Italy, as it contains a pivotal anthropogenic deposit, mainly attributed to MIS 6, while in the Metal Ages, the cavity was used as a burial place. Excavations in the cave's deposit led to the discovery of a human molar and a human talus.

RAVE as a Gaia precursor: what to expect from the Gaia RVS?
The Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) is a large wide-field spectroscopic stellar survey of the Milky Way. Over the period 2003-2013, 574,630 spectra for 483,330 stars have been amassed at a resolution of R=7500 in the Ca-triplet region of 8410-8795\AA ...

Integrating Traditional Medicine to Improve the Care of Persistent Physical Symptom
ABSTRACT Persistent physical symptom (PPS) is a common condition in sub‐healthy population and patients with chronic disease, and significantly influences the quality of life. Many PPS cannot be explained by any known disease, and thereby are attributed to socio‐psychological reasons and treated by psychological interventions, such as cognitive ...

The Rise of the r-process in the Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus Dwarf Galaxy
Neutron star mergers (NSMs) produce r -process elements after a time-delayed inspiral process. Once a significant number of NSMs are present in a galaxy, r -process elements, such as Eu, are expected to significantly increase with time.

Disentangling Stellar Age Estimates from Galactic Chemodynamical Evolution
Stellar ages are key for determining the formation history of the Milky Way, but are difficult to measure precisely. Furthermore, methods that use chemical abundances to infer ages may entangle the intrinsic evolution of stars with the chemodynamical ...

The minimum stellar metallicity observable in the Galaxy
The first stars fundamentally transformed the early Universe through their production of energetic radiation and the first heavy chemical elements. The impact on cosmic evolution sensitively depends on their initial mass function (IMF), which can be ...

Accounting Professionalism: Serving the Public Interest Means First Knowing What Societies Value
ABSTRACT This paper calls for including liberal arts study in undergraduate accounting degrees. Although the idea is not new, unlike previous calls – which use normative‐based arguments to link liberal arts study with the development of students' critical thinking, problem‐solving, and analytical skills – the present study views the inclusion of ...

StarFlow: Leveraging Normalizing Flows for Stellar Age Estimation in SDSS-V DR19
Understanding the ages of stars is crucial for unraveling the formation history and evolution of our Galaxy. Traditional methods for estimating stellar ages from spectroscopic data often struggle with providing appropriate uncertainty estimations and are
