Constraining the z ∼ 1 Initial Mass Function with HST and JWST Lensed Stars in MACS J0416.1−2403

The Astrophysical Journal
Our understanding of galaxy properties and evolution is contingent on knowing the initial mass function (IMF), and yet to date the IMF is constrained only to local galaxies.

Variability of Draped Interplanetary Magnetic Field in the Subsolar Martian Ionosphere

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In the absence of an intrinsic magnetic field, the solar wind interacts directly with the Martian atmosphere, and the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) drapes around the ionosphere. With the aid of multi-instrument measurements from Mars Atmosphere and

Climate Stress Testing on European SME Securitised Loans Under Climate Mitigation Scenarios

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assessing the future impact of climate risks on the probability of default (PD) of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is challenging due to limited disclosure, policy uncertainty and exposure to physical risks. This paper addresses this gap by integrating macroeconomic variables from the Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS ...

Population III.1 stars: formation, feedback and evolution of the IMF [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractI discuss current theoretical expectations of how primordial, Pop III.1 stars form. Lack of direct observational constraints makes this a challenging task. In particular predicting the mass of these stars requires solving a series of problems, which all affect, perhaps drastically, the final outcome.
