Evolution of interstellar dust and stardust in the solar neighbourhood

open access: yes, 2007
The abundance evolution of interstellar dust species originating from stellar sources and from condensation in molecular clouds in the local interstellar medium of the Milky Way is studied and the input of dust material to the Solar System is determined.

Rubidium in the Interstellar Medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present observations of interstellar rubidium toward o Per, zeta Per, AE Aur, HD 147889, chi Oph, zeta Oph, and 20 Aql. Theory suggests that stable 85Rb and long-lived 87Rb are produced predominantly by high-mass stars, through a combination of the ...

How to Imagine Educational AI: The Filling of a Pail or the Lighting of a Fire?

open access: yesEducational Theory, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in artificial intelligence (e.g., machine learning, generative AI) have led to increased interest in its application in educational settings. AI companies hope to revolutionize teaching and learning by tailoring material to the individual needs of students, automating parts of teachers' jobs, or analyzing educational data to ...

Determining the Methanol Deuteration in the Disk Around V883 Orionis with Laboratory Measured Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Deuterium fractionation, as studied through mono-deuterated methanol, is frequently used as a diagnostic tool to trace the physical conditions and chemical evolution of interstellar sources. This study investigates methanol deuteration in the disk around

Ryugu Reference Project: Recommendations from the Measurement Definition Team

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Sample return missions play a significant role in planetary science by providing pristine extraterrestrial materials. JAXA's Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions have returned samples from the C‐type asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of these samples closely resemble those of CI chondrites,

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

On the chemistry of hydrides of N atoms and O$^+$ ions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Previous work by various authors has suggested that the detection by Herschel/HIFI of nitrogen hydrides along the low density lines of sight towards G10.6-0.4 (W31C) cannot be accounted for by gas-phase chemical models.

Galactic Cosmic Ray Origins and OB Associations: Evidence from SuperTIGER Observations of Elements $_{26}$Fe through $_{40}$Zr [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report abundances of elements from $_{26}$Fe to $_{40}$Zr in the cosmic radiation measured by the SuperTIGER (Trans-Iron Galactic Element Recorder) instrument during 55 days of exposure on a long-duration balloon flight over Antarctica.

Interstellar Atomic Abundances

open access: yes, 2003
A broad array of interstellar absorption features that appear in the ultraviolet spectra of bright sources allows us to measure the abundances and ionization states of many important heavy elements that exist as free atoms in the interstellar medium.

Two Extrasolar Asteroids with Low Volatile-Element Mass Fractions

open access: yes, 2012
Using ultraviolet spectra obtained with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope, we extend our previous ground-based optical determinations of the composition of the extrasolar asteroids accreted onto two white dwarfs, GD 40 and ...
