Illumination Model of Lunar Terrain around Lunar Laser Retroreflectors Based on LOLA Data

Remote Sensing
Lunar laser retroreflectors are a crucial target for lunar laser ranging (LLR). During LLR operations at all lunar laser ranging stations, the considerable distance between the Earth and the Moon makes it impossible to visually identify the position of ...

The Solar Wind Interaction With an Orbiting Venus

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Studies of the large‐scale interaction of the solar wind with planets have often been considered along the line of the sun to the planet, neglecting the planet's orbital motion. This paper describes a new refinement in the long history of Venus simulations, the addition of the planet's orbital motion.

3D Localization of FRB 20190425A for Its Potential Host Galaxy and Implications

The Astrophysical Journal
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are high-energy, short-duration phenomena in radio astronomy. Identifying their host galaxies can provide insights into their mysterious origins. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to identifying potential host galaxies

Statistical Survey of Magnetic Flux Integral Quantities in Saturn's Magnetosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Magnetic flux integral quantities (e.g., flux tube entropy, flux tube content) are conserved quantities under the frozen‐in assumption. The change of these quantities often indicates the violation of the frozen‐in condition (e.g., interchange instability).

Modeling the Rising Tails of Galaxy Rotation Curves

Galaxies, 2019
It is well known, but under-appreciated in astrophysical applications, that it is possible for gravity to take on a life of its own in the form of Weyl-curvature-only metrics (note that we are referring to the Weyl-only solutions of ordinary General ...

The Impact of a Long‐Lived Basal Magma Ocean on the Thermochemical Evolution of Mars

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract A basal magma ocean (BMO) has been suggested to form as a consequence of cumulate overturn following crystallization of an initial global magma ocean. As a consequence of enrichment in iron and heat‐producing elements (HPE), the BMO stabilizes gravitationally at the base of the planetary mantle, affecting the efficiency of mantle convection ...

Dealing with data gaps for TianQin with massive black hole binary signal

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
Space-borne gravitational wave detectors like TianQin might encounter data gaps due to factors like micro-meteoroid collisions or hardware failures. Such events will cause discontinuity in the data, presenting challenges to the data analysis for TianQin,

Thermal Precursors to Regional Dust Storms on Mars: Observations With Mars Climate Sounder

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Surface heating by solar flux is an important mechanism in driving atmospheric instability and dust lifting on Mars. We investigated possible signals of elevated surface temperatures and surface flux prior to regional Mars dust storms using Mars Climate Sounder data.
