What Is the Nature of Little Red Dots and what Is Not, MIRI SMILES Edition

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study 31 little red dots (LRD) detected by JADES/NIRCam and covered by the SMILES/MIRI survey, of which ∼70% are detected in the two bluest MIRI bands and 40% in redder MIRI filters.

How Many Worlds Could There Be? David Lewis and Advanced Modalizing

open access: yesAnalytic 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 ...

Testing a New Star Formation History Model from Principal Component Analysis to Facilitate Spectral Synthesis Modeling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The spectrum of a galaxy is a complicated convolution of many properties of the galaxy, such as the star formation history (SFH), initial mass function, and metallicity.

Pascal's Hell

open access: yesPhilosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Expected utility maximization with unbounded utilities implies that tiny probabilities of huge positive or negative payoffs can dominate overall expected‐utility calculations. In other words, it leads to fanaticism. Fanaticism is counterintuitive, as illustrated by cases such as Pascal's Mugging and the St. Petersburg paradox.

FEAST: JWST/NIRCam View of the Resolved Stellar Populations of the Interacting Dwarf Galaxies NGC 4485 and NGC 4490

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present new JWST/NIRCam observations of the interacting dwarf galaxy system NGC 4485–NGC 4490 (aka Arp 269), obtained as part of the Cycle 1 Feedback in Emerging Extragalactic Star Clusters (FEAST) program. NGC 4485 and NGC 4490 form the closest known

The Problem of Psychonomic Harmony

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The problem of nomological harmony is the problem of explaining why the laws of nature match or apply to the states of the universe in a way that results in temporal evolution. The problem of psychophysical harmony is the problem of explaining why phenomenal states are paired with physical states and other phenomenal states in surprisingly ...

Death, Deprivation, and the Symmetry Problem

open access: yesRatio, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT According to the deprivation account of the badness of death, death is bad for the one who dies because it deprives her of goods she would otherwise have enjoyed. This view faces the so‐called symmetry problem when one considers prenatal nonexistence. Scholars have proposed various solutions to this problem, but all of them encounter their own

On Our Cosmic (In)significance

open access: yesRatio, 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.

Cis–Trans Rotational Isomerism of Formic Acid, Sulfur, and Selenium Analogues and Their Dimers: Chemical Kinetics Under Interstellar Conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Kinetics, Volume 58, Issue 12, Page 1136-1145, December 2026.
ABSTRACT We present chemical kinetic rate constants for the cis to trans isomerisation or rotamerization of monomeric seleno‐, thio‐, and formic acids and that of three of their dimeric species, based on variational transition state theory and multidimensional tunneling calculations in the gas‐phase, from 10 K to 300 K. These provide, firstly, reliable
