Buzzard to Cardinal: Improved Mock Catalogs for Large Galaxy Surveys
The Astrophysical JournalWe present the Cardinal mock galaxy catalogs, a new version of the Buzzard simulation that has been updated to support ongoing and future cosmological surveys, including the Dark Energy Survey (DES), DESI, and LSST.

The 40K‐K dating system: 1. Improving data interpretation using new model calculations
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The 40K‐K cosmic‐ray exposure (CRE) dating system offers a promising method for determining exposure ages of iron meteorites by combining the radioactive cosmogenic 40K with the stable cosmogenic isotopes 39K and 41K. However, earlier applications relied on semi‐empirical production models and inconsistent analytical data sets, limiting their ...

The Astrophysical JournalWe present a comprehensive study of the galaxy size–stellar mass relation (SMR) at low redshift ( z ≤ 0.125), using a large spectroscopic sample from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 13 (SDSS DR13).

Nature's Complexity Alive: Farewell to Several Unificatory Cosmological Arguments for Monism
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Throughout history, numerous thinkers have claimed that monism—in the form of priority monism, existence monism, monotheistic monism, or versions that posit an extra‐cosmic ultimate being—theoretically surpasses pluralism, above all by positing a unified universe.

The Open Journal of AstrophysicsThe spatial extent of the environment's impact on galaxies marks a transitional region between cluster and field galaxies. We present a data-driven method to identify this region in galaxy clusters with masses $M_{200\rm ,mean}>10^{13} M_{\odot}$ at $z =

Simulations All the Way Up! An Atheist's Response to the Fine‐Tuning Argument
Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT So the Fine‐tuning Argument goes, because it is so unlikely for the physical constants of the laws of nature to have taken the values that they in fact take, we should significantly raise our credence that God exists. Simulation Arguments argue that our world might be (or, in stronger versions, that it probably is) a mere computer simulation ...

Impact of stellar population models on the estimated physical properties of galaxies
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. Accurate estimates of fundamental physical properties of galaxies, such as star formation rates (SFRs) or stellar masses, are essential for testing and constraining models of galaxy formation and evolution.

How Many Worlds Could There Be? David Lewis and Advanced Modalizing
Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Advanced modalizing, namely, possibilities and necessities concerning modal space itself, is problematic for a Lewis‐style analysis of modality. A popular solution, proposed by Divers, postulates explicit semantic clauses for a collapse of advanced modalizing, to the conclusion that all such matters are, if true in the first place, both ...
