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 ...

UV–Vis Spectra of Carbonic Acid: Rationalizing Experimental Redshifts between Monomer and Bulk based on (H2CO3)n Calculations

ChemPhysChem, Volume 26, Issue 18, September 19, 2025.
In bulk carbonic acid (e.g., in interstellar icy dust grains) cluster formation produces two distinct UV‐Vis spectral features redshifted by ≈2 eV (25 nm) and by ≈5 eV (80 nm) compared to gas phase single molecule carbonic acid 's adiabatic ionization energy. Theory and experiment were used to investigate the origin of these shifts.

The Gold‐Maker of Animal Oil and Prussian Blue Fame — The Chemical and Medicinal Science Philosophy of Johann Conrad Dippel

The Chemical Record, Volume 25, Issue 7, July 2025.
The radical Pietist Johann Conrad Dippel was a self‐proclaimed adept – a maker of gold and the philosophers’ stone. He was also a magister of theology, a doctor of medicine, and a self‐taught chemist, who coinvented the pigment Prussian Blue together with Johann von Diesbach, became known for his animal pyrolysis oil, his wonder‐wound balm, his ...

Observations of a Disconnection Event and Other Large‐Scale Disturbances in the Ion Tail of Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract We analyze five large‐scale tail disturbances in comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)'s ion tail using images from astrophotographers, tracking specific features within the tail to determine their speeds. We employ a heliosphere model to estimate when the comet crossed the heliospheric current sheet (HCS).

Helium in Mercury's Extended Exosphere Determined by Pick‐Up Generated Ion Cyclotron Waves

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Helium (He) was first detected by remote spectroscopic observations of the Ultraviolet Visible Spectrometers (UVVS) instrument in Mercury's exosphere during the three Mariner 10 flybys in 1974 and 1975. Here, we derive the first in situ radial density profile of He in Mercury's extended exosphere by analyzing magnetic field and plasma ...

2005–2010 Multiwavelength Campaing of OJ287

Acta Polytechnica, 2011
The light curve of quasar OJ287 extends from 1891 up today without major gaps. This is partly due to extensive studies of historical plate archives by Rene Hudec and associates, and partly due to several observing campaigns in recent times.

Ion‐Scale Characteristics of the Martian Magnetic Pile‐Up Boundary Layer

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 3, 16 February 2025.
Abstract The Martian magnetic pile‐up boundary (MPB) delineates the interface between the magnetosheath and the induced magnetosphere, but its global ion‐scale characteristics remaining unclear. Utilizing a three‐dimensional Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, this study aims to reveal the features of the MPB layer, including magnetic field, current ...

Seasonal and Local Time Variation in the Observed Peak of the Meteor Altitude Distributions by Meteor Radars

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 21, 16 November 2024.
Abstract Meteoroids of sub‐milligram sizes burn up high in the Earth's atmosphere and cause streaks of plasma trails detectable by meteor radars. The altitude at which these trails, or meteors, form depends on a number of factors including atmospheric density and the astronomical source populations from which these meteoroids originate.

Waves and Instabilities in Saturn's Magnetosheath: 2. Dispersion Relation Analysis

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 129, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract The WHAMP (Rönnmark, 1982, https://inis.iaea.org/search/search.aspx?orig_q=RN:14744092) and LEOPARD (Astfalk & Jenko, 2017, https://doi.org/10.1002/2016ja023522) dispersion relation solvers were used to evaluate the growth rate and scale size for mirror mode (MM) and ion cyclotron (IC) instabilities under plasma conditions resembling Saturn's ...
