Resolving Red Giant Winds with the Hubble Space Telescope

The Astrophysical Journal
We describe recent spectroscopic observations of red giant stars made by the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) instrument on board the Hubble Space Telescope, which has provided spatially resolved observations of the warm chromospheric winds ...

Thermal Escape of Atomic Hydrogen on Mars: A Comprehensive View With a General Circulation Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Mars loses water mainly through the photodissociation of water vapor, followed by the thermal escape of light hydrogen atoms. Observations have revealed large seasonal variations in hydrogen concentration in the upper thermosphere, peaking during southern summers and intensifying during dust storms.

Hubble Space Telescope Observations of the Interstellar Interloper 3I/ATLAS

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present high-angular-resolution observations of the third known interstellar interloper, 3I/ATLAS, from the Hubble Space Telescope. The object is clearly active at 3.8 au preperihelion, showing dust emitted from the hot, Sun-facing side of the nucleus

LensWatch. I. Resolved HST Observations and Constraints on the Strongly Lensed Type Ia Supernova 2022qmx (“SN Zwicky”)

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Supernovae (SNe) that have been multiply imaged by gravitational lensing are rare and powerful probes for cosmology. Each detection is an opportunity to develop the critical tools and methodologies needed as the sample of lensed SNe increases by orders ...

Status and Prospect of Secondary Battery Technologies in Space Applications: Challenges and the Future

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
Lithium‐ion batteries used in space applications are exposed to extreme conditions, including radiation, vacuum, wide temperature fluctuations, and long storage times, all of which accelerate degradation. This review article summarizes the main degradation mechanisms affecting battery performance in space environments, including capacity fade ...

Hubble space telescope high-resolution imaging of Kepler small and cool exoplanet host stars

, 2015
High-resolution imaging is an important tool for follow-up study of exoplanet candidates found via transit detection with the Kepler mission. We discuss here Hubble Space Telescope imaging with the WFC3 of 23 stars that host particularly interesting ...

The cosmological ultra-low frequency radio background: a solution to the Hubble tension and the 21-cm excess trough

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Recent observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background and the Hubble Space Telescope obtain two different values of the Hubble constant with a discrepancy of at least $$4.4 \sigma $$ 4.4 σ , which is now known as the Hubble tension.

Constraining Electron‐Impact Ionization of O2 Through UV Aurora Observations at Ganymede

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract While photoionization rates of Ganymede's O2 ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ dominated atmosphere are well constrained, the contribution of electron‐impact ionization is rather uncertain. Previous quantitative estimates have relied on assumptions about densities and energy distributions of precipitating electrons, or on rare spacecraft measurements that ...

Harnessing the Hubble Space Telescope Archives: A Catalog of 21,926 Interacting Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Mergers play a complex role in galaxy formation and evolution. Continuing to improve our understanding of these systems requires ever larger samples, which can be difficult (even impossible) to select from individual surveys.
