Latitude Survey of Neutrons and Muons to Determine Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing Yield Functions
Abstract Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing (CRNS) is a ground‐based technique that utilizes epithermal neutron measurements as a proxy for environmental hydrogen content. Similarly to other ground‐based cosmic ray detectors (e.g., neutron monitors), CRNS detectors are affected by the solar cycle and space weather events.

Interstellar spectral features and telluric absorption lines
In good quality spectra of stars the weak interstellar absorption lines may be substantially contaminated by telluric lines. Many telluric lines may also simulate interstellar absorptions.

Abstract Cosmic rays (CRs) are energetic particles originating from galactic and extragalactic sources. When arriving into the solar system and the Sun's heliosphere, they are diverted and modulated by the magnetic activity of the Sun. This modulation can be quantified by the modulation parameter ϕ $\phi $ determined with the Force‐field approximation (

Observations of interstellar Lyman-α absorption [PDF]
Absorption at the Lyman-α transition from interstellar neutral hydrogen has been observed in the ultraviolet spectra of 18 nearby O and B stars. Radiation damping is the dominant cause of line broadening, which makes the derived line-of-sight column densities proportional to the square of the observed equivalent widths.

Jovian Auroral Proton Precipitation
Abstract The total power of the Jovian aurora is about 1013–1014 W with ultraviolet emission observed in the Lyman and Werner bands of molecular hydrogen. X‐ray, radio, and infrared emissions have also been observed. The Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment and the Jovian Energetic Particle Detector Instrument onboard the Juno spacecraft, orbiting ...

Variable interstellar absorption lines: a brief review
I review the recent discoveries of variable interstellar absorption lines, widely taken to imply the existence of very small scale(10–100 AU) structure in the interstellar medium.

Towards a Measurement of the Primordial Helium Isotope Ratio
We report the discovery of two metastable neutral helium (He I *) absorbers in the Milky Way, and use the upgraded CRyogenic InfraRed Echelle Spectrograph (or CRIRES) on the Very Large Telescope to determine the helium isotope ratio, ^3 He/ ^4 He, along ...

Abstract Volatile‐rich xenolithic clasts in different types of brecciated meteorites represent unique pristine solar system material. This study investigates the maturity and thermal history of organic matter using Raman spectroscopy and aqueous alteration effects using infrared spectroscopy in the matrix of 15 volatile‐rich clasts (C1 and CM‐like ...
