On Our Cosmic (In)significance
Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article discusses three interpretations of cosmic significance, all of which reveal something important about the notion of significance. Along the way, it proposes a unified view of significance by combining elements of each of the views.

The Relationship between Galaxy ISM and Circumgalactic Gas Metallicities [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Abstract We present interstellar matter (ISM) and circumgalactic medium (CGM) metallicities for 25 absorption systems associated with isolated star-forming galaxies ( ) with 9.4 ≤ log(M */M ⊙) ≤ 10.9 and with absorption detected within ...

Utopia Remembers: The Soviet Past in the Imagined Communist Future
The Russian Review, EarlyView.Abstract After a twenty‐five‐year hiatus, the reappearance of utopian literature in 1957 prompted Soviet literary watchdogs to corral the subgenre into an ideologically‐acceptable mold. A key requirement was for future generations to be depicted as reverently commemorating the past.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract Recent works suggest there are periods when the Sun encountered massive interstellar cold clouds which compressed the heliosphere to within Earth's orbit, exposing Earth to interstellar galactic cosmic rays and energetic particles of heliospheric origin.

ALMACAL V: absorption-selected galaxies with evidence for excited ISMs [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2018 ABSTRACT Gas-rich galaxies are selected efficiently via quasar absorption lines. Recently, a new perspective on such absorption-selected systems has opened up by studying the molecular gas content of absorber host galaxies using ALMA CO emission line observations. Here, we present an analysis of multiple CO transitions ($L^{\prime }_{\rm

The Great Cosmic Silence: What Does the Fermi Paradox Tell About the Future of Humanity?
Global Policy, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 553-565, September 2026.ABSTRACT This article examines how institutional time horizons shape the long‐term survival prospects of human technological civilisation. While research on global catastrophic and existential risks has expanded, the temporal structures of political‐economic institutions remain underexamined.

The ISM of Low Metallicity Galaxies: The Herschel view [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012 AbstractThe wide variety of low metallicity galaxies of the local universe serve as convenient laboratories to study the evolution of gas and dust and conditions for star formation in environments which may resemble those of the early universe. The Herschel Dwarf Galaxy Survey is studying the far infrared (FIR) and submillimeter (submm) properties of ...

The Kinetic Materialism of ‘Close Capitalism’: Exploiting and Shaping Health and Wellbeing
Geography Compass, Volume 20, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT This paper considers health geography's past engagements with capitalism and proposes a basis for future ones. Looking back, it notes a number of implicit, indirect and partial engagements in five core research pillars of the subdiscipline. Looking forward, it then makes a case for a more explicit, direct and full engagement with capitalism ...

Restricted deflationism: Why the deflationist project needs at least a little bit of intentionality
Mind &Language, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 531-540, September 2026.Frances Egan argues for a deflationist view of intentionality, on which intentionality is merely part of a pragmatically motivated explanatory “gloss” on theories of mind and behavior. While sympathetic to the project, I worry that the view is inadvertently committed to genuine intentionality: For intentionality to be a mere pragmatically motivated ...
