Climax of Late Paleoproterozoic Rift‐Related Magmatism in the Columbia Supercontinent: Insights From a 1.77–1.76 Ga Large Igneous Province of the Dunhuang Block, Northwest China

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Widespread mafic magmatism at ca. 1.8–1.7 Ga across fragments of the Columbia supercontinent records a transition in the Earth's supercontinent cycle. The paleogeographic position of the Dunhuang Block in northwestern China within Columbia, and its role in this tectonic reorganization, remain controversial.

Modeling Asteroseismic Yields for the Roman Galactic Bulge Time-domain Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Galactic Bulge Time-Domain Survey (GBTDS) of the Roman Space Telescope will take high-cadence data of the Galactic bulge. We investigate the asteroseismic potential of this survey for red giants.

The spheroidal bulge of the Milky Way: Chemodynamically distinct from the inner-thick disc and bar

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Studying the composition and origin of the inner region of our Galaxy—the “Galactic bulge”—is crucial for understanding the formation and evolution of the Milky Way and other galaxies.

Blazhko modulation in first-overtone RR Lyrae stars from the OGLE Collection

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
We present results of the first comprehensive study of the Blazhko effect in first-overtone RR Lyrae stars from the Galactic bulge based on the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment data.

Transiting Exoplanet Yields for the Roman Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey Predicted from Pixel-level Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) is NASA’s next astrophysics flagship mission, expected to launch in late 2026. As one of Roman’s core community science surveys, the Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey (GBTDS) will collect photometric and ...

Abundance Patterns in Stars in the Bulge and Galactic Center

open access: yes, 2007
We discuss oxygen and iron abundance patterns in K and M red-giant members of the Galactic bulge and in the young and massive M-type stars inhabiting the very center of the Milky Way.

Mercury's Tectonic and Geodynamic History: 2. Contribution of Membrane–Flexural Strains to the Tectonic Record

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Previous analyses of Mercury's tectonic record have arrived at widely varying amounts of global contraction. Contraction also varies spatially, with some regions displaying a near‐zero record of contraction. Here, we investigate the contribution of membrane–flexural strain from lithosphere loading to the tectonic record.

New Light on Dark Extended Lenses with the Roman Space Telescope

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The Roman Space Telescope’s Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey will constitute the most sensitive microlensing survey of the Galactic bulge to date, opening up new opportunities to search for dark matter (DM). Many extensions of the Standard Model predict

Elemental abundances in AGB stars and the formation of the Galactic bulge

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
We obtained high-resolution near-IR spectra of 45 AGB stars located in the Galactic bulge. The aim of the project is to determine key elemental abundances in these stars to help constrain the formation history of the bulge.

Metallicity of Red Giants in the Galactic Bulge from Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2000
We present K-band spectra of more than 110 M giants in Galactic bulge fields interior to -4 degrees and as close as 0.2 degrees of the Galactic Center. From the equivalent widths of three features in these spectra, EW(Na),EW(Ca), and EW(CO) we calculate [
