Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1593-1609, July 2026.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

Different Influence of Gas Accretion on the Evolution of Star-forming and Non-star-forming Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using integral field spectroscopic data from the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory survey, we investigate the spatially resolved properties and empirical relations of a star-forming galaxy and a non-star-forming galaxy hosting ...

Three Types of Galaxy Disks

open access: yes, 2007
We present our new scheme for the classification of radial stellar surface brightness profiles for disk galaxies. We summarize the current theoretical attempts to understand their origin and give an example of an application by comparing local galaxies with their counterparts at high redshift (z~1).

Multi‐Dielectric Metasurfaces for Ultrabright, Tunable Structural Color and Reconfigurable Optical Filtering with Extraordinarily Large Color Span

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Structural color generation is an emerging field for digital display and printing applications. This report presents a novel truncated‐cone design and the first use of GaP sandwiched between two layers of TiO2, demonstrating ultra‐bright, tunable colors with a record color gamut.

On the Orbital Evolution of Binaries with Polar Circumbinary Disks

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Binaries occur in many astrophysical systems, from young protostellar binaries in star-forming regions to supermassive black hole binaries in galaxy centers.

RAD@home Citizen Science Discovery of Two Spiral Galaxies Where the 30–220 kpc Radio Lobes Are Possibly Shaped by Ram Pressure Stripping

open access: yesGalaxies
We report the RAD@home citizen science discovery of two rare spiral-host radio galaxies (NGC 3898 and WISEA J221656.57-132042434.1 or RAD-“Thumbs up” galaxy), both exhibiting asymmetric radio lobes extending over 30 to 220 kiloparsec scales. We present a

The Mechanism and Timescale of Nodal Precession: Two Nuclear Stellar Disks in the Galactic Center

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2015
A dynamical model of interacting nuclear stellar rings in the central parsec of our Galaxy is constructed. We discuss the physical sources of nodal precession and of the associated time scales.

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

COSMOS-Web: The Role of Galaxy Interactions and Disk Instabilities in Producing Starbursts at z < 4

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study of the role of galaxy–galaxy interactions and disk instabilities in producing starburst activity in galaxies out to z = 4. For this, we use a sample of 387 galaxies with robust total star formation rate measurements from Herschel, gas masses ...

The Formation of Disk Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988
In this talk, I will discuss a few particular topics, rather than attempting a general review of the formation of disk galaxies. First recall the basic structure and kinematics of a disk galaxy like the Milky Way. The Table below lists the four main structural components as they are presently understood, and gives typical masses, and (if known) the ...
