AEOS: Star-by-star Cosmological Simulations of Early Chemical Enrichment and Galaxy Formation

The Astrophysical Journal
The A eos project introduces a series of high-resolution cosmological simulations that model star-by-star chemical enrichment and galaxy formation in the early Universe, achieving 1 pc resolution.

Phytochemical Profiling and Characterization of Honeydew, Cantaloupe, and Galia Melon Peel Extracts for Potential Prebiotic Activities

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Bioactive compounds are recovered from Honeydew, Cantaloupe, and Galia melon peels through aqueous and ethanolic extraction followed by freeze‐drying. The resulting extracts undergo comprehensive characterization using HPLC, FTIR, and NMR spectroscopy to define their chemical profiles.

An Analytical Galactic Chemical Evolution Model with Gas Inflow and a Terminal Wind

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a new analytical galactic chemical evolution (GCE) model with gas inflow, internally caused outflow, and extra gas loss after a period of time. The latter mimics the ram pressure stripping of a dwarf satellite galaxy near the pericenter of its

Characterizing the Signals and Backgrounds in a Low Earth Orbiting Cherenkov Detector, and Background Mitigation Strategies

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Cherenkov detectors have been used in space for decades to measure Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs), Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs) and trapped particles. We present proof‐of‐concept GRAS/Geant4 simulations to both show that a cubic fused silica Cherenkov detector with SiPM in LEO has a good sensitivity to SEP and GCR protons as a function of cut‐

On the Evolutionary History of a Simulated Disk Galaxy as Seen by Phylogenetic Trees

The Astrophysical Journal
Phylogenetic methods have long been used in biology and more recently have been extended to other fields—for example, linguistics and technology—to study evolutionary histories.

Passive Microwave Radiometry and Active Radar Sounding as Complementary Tools for Geophysical Investigations of Icy Ocean Worlds

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Juno Microwave Radiometer (MWR) observations of Europa and Ganymede offer critical insights into the icy shells of these moons ahead of NASA's Europa Clipper and ESA's JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) missions. Both missions are equipped with active radar sounders designed to address key unknowns such as ice shell thickness, thermal state ...

The chemical evolution of elliptical galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal, 1980
U--R colors of elliptical and SO galaxies have been synthesized by combining the stellar populations of galactic globular clusters in accordance with a simple mass-loss chemical evolutionary model. We can account in a satisfactory way for the range, shape, and dispersion of the color-magnitude relation observed by Sandage and Visvanathan.

Machine Learning‐Ready Data Sets for the Analysis and Nowcasting of Atmospheric Radiation at Aviation Altitudes

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Nowcasting and forecasting of the radiation environment in the Earth's lower atmosphere are critical for the safety of aircraft and spacecraft crews and passengers. Currently, this problem is addressed by employing statistical and physics‐based models that take into account particle transport and precipitation.

Quantifying Bursty Star Formation in Dwarf Galaxies

The Open Journal of Astrophysics
Dwarf galaxy star formation histories are theoretically expected to be bursty, potentially leaving distinct imprints on their chemical evolution. We propose that episodic starbursts with quiescent periods longer than ~100 Myr should lead to discontinuous

The Constraint of Crewed Mars Missions Based on Current Radiation Dose Measurements

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Crewed missions to Mars will be a milestone of future space exploration programs. However, the absence of Earth's magnetic field leaves astronauts directly exposed to unattenuated energetic particles in deep space, primarily galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), resulting in significantly higher radiation levels and enhanced health risks. Understanding
