Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

Seeing Halley's Comet: A guide for observers in the Northern Hemisphere [PDF]

, 1983
A guide for the observation of Halley's comet is presented. The path of the comet is described for the fly by dates and charts are provided for location of the comet in the morning or evening skies.

Genotoxicity of nitroso compounds and sodium dichromate in a model combining organ cultures of human nasal epithelia and the comet assay [PDF]

, 2001
Genotoxic effects of xenobiotics are a possible step in tumor initiation in the mucosa of the upper aerodigestive tract. Using the comet assay, detecting genotoxicity in human tissue has been restricted to single incubations in vitro, but in vivo most ...

Characterization of Mercury's Atomic and Molecular Hydrogen Exosphere and the First Detection of H2 Ions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract From 1974 to 1975, the Mariner 10 spacecraft studied Mercury's environment during three flybys and detected hydrogen, helium, and possibly atomic oxygen in the exosphere using its ultraviolet spectrometer, but no molecular hydrogen. Based on the sensitivity of the occultation instrument, an upper limit for the H2 ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}$ surface ...

Halley's comet 1985-86: space exploration [PDF]

, 1980
A coordinated program to explore Halley's comet in 1985 to 86 is proposed. The program employs a variety of observational systems for remote observations and utilizes spacecraft encounters with the comet to obtain in-situ measurements.

Occultation of compact radio sources by the ion tail of Halley's Comet [PDF]

, 1987
Enhancements of scintillations of the compact radio sources PKS 2314+03 and 1827-360 were observed at 103 MHz and 408 MHz during 18-21 December 1985 and on 29 March 1986, respectively, when the plasma tail of Halley's Comet swept across them.

Evidence of an Extended Alfvén Wing System at Enceladus: Cassini's Multi‐Instrument Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We report in situ evidence for Enceladus' Alfvén wing system and its coupling with Saturn's ionosphere, based on multi‐instrument observations from the Cassini spacecraft. Analysis of 36 events, including 13 from non‐flyby paths, confirms the existence of a Main Alfvén Wing (MAW) current system generated at Enceladus, and associated Reflected ...

Constructed Response Paragraph Jigsaw Puzzle Test for Measuring Structure Building Ability

Applied Cognitive Psychology, Volume 40, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examined whether paragraph jigsaw puzzle (PJP) test can be used to measure structure building ability, the ability to construct cohesive mental representations. We developed a constructed‐response version of the PJP test and scored it with a string‐similarity algorithm that allows for partial credit.

A Thermal Origin to the Asymmetry of the Permanent Dust Cloud at the Moon

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The Moon's surface, lacking an atmosphere, is continually bombarded by high‐speed micro‐meteoroids, creating a highly porous regolith composed of very fine grains. This regolith's porosity decreases with depth due to compression. Besides creating vapor and melt, micro‐meteoroid impacts eject lunar dust, redistributing regolith grains, which ...
