Hydro-Gravitational Dynamics of Planets and Dark Energy

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2009
Self gravitational fluid mechanical methods termed hydro-gravitational-dynamics (HGD) predict plasma fragmentation 0.03 Myr after the turbulent big bang to form protosuperclustervoids, turbulent protosuperclusters, and protogalaxies at the 0.3 Myr ...

Evidence for Multiple Orbiting Hotspots in the 340 GHz Variability of Sgr A*

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We analyzed 11 epochs of archival Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) data to investigate the flux density variability of Sgr A* at 340 GHz. In one epoch, the light curve exhibits two short-timescale components with characteristic periods

Hidden No More: Spotlight on Tidal Disruption Events in Active Galactic Nuclei

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered in previously quiescent galaxies. However, earlier studies have revealed a handful of TDEs occurring in pre‐existing active galactic nuclei (AGN). We discuss AT2019aalc, a promising TDE candidate in an AGN, and compare it to similar sources.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1582-1605, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

In Search of Cool Flow Accretion onto Galaxies: Where Does the Disk Gas End? [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2017
Abstract The processes taking place in the outermost reaches of spiral disks (the “protodisk”) are intimately connected to the build-up of mass and angular momentum in galaxies. The thinness of spiral disks suggests that the activity is mostly quiescent, and presumably this region is fed by cool flows coming into the halo from the ...

AT 2020nov: Evidence for Disk Reprocessing in a Rare Tidal Disruption Event

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a detailed analysis of AT 2020nov, a tidal disruption event (TDE) in the center of its host galaxy, located at a redshift of z = 0.083. AT 2020nov exhibits unique features, including double-peaked Balmer emission lines, a broad UV/optical ...

Origins of coplanar counterrotating stellar disk components in late-type galaxies

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Understanding galaxy evolution is key to explaining the structures we observe in the present-day Universe. Counterrotating stellar disks, i.e., co-spatial stellar disks rotating with opposite angular momentum, have been proposed as signatures of

What Observations Would an Energetic Neutral Atom Imager Have Made During the Voyager 2 Flyby of Uranus?

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We present large‐scale simulations of energetic neutral atom (ENA) emissions at Uranus from a spacecraft viewpoint. Models of magnetic field, extended hydrogen exosphere, moon‐sourced neutral tori, and proton radiation belt are implemented into a simulator to evaluate the production of ENAs for L $L$ = 1–15.

Solar Energetic Particle Prediction in the Inner Heliosphere Using Deep Learning and PSP/IS⊙IS Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Solar events, such as coronal mass ejections and solar flares, accelerate large numbers of energetic charged particles, producing solar energetic particle (SEP) events that can harm astronauts, damage satellites, and potentially damage infrastructure on Earth.

Discovering the Mass-Scaled Damping Timescale from Microquasars to Blazars

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Studying the variability of the accretion disks of black holes and jets is important to identify their internal physical processes. In this Letter, we obtain the characteristic damping timescale of 34 blazars and 7 microquasars from the Fermi-Large Area ...
