Probing the Properties of Interstellar Dust Towards the Hot Star Zeta Ophiuchi

open access: yes, 2023
Microscopic dust grains permeate the interstellar medium, blocking and obscuring light from all sources. This effect is termed interstellar extinction.

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 4475-4514, October 2026.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Proximity Proteomics Maps Candidate Cellular Uptake Pathways for Cell‐Derived Nanovesicles

open access: yesSmall Methods, Volume 10, Issue 19, 7 October 2026.
TurboID‐based dual‐sided proteomics compares mechanically generated cell‐derived nanovesicles with naturally secreted small extracellular vesicles. Vesicle proteomes define candidate interaction signatures, while recipient‐cell proximity labelling identifies exposure‐associated proteins.

The Power of the Rings: The GRB 221009A Soft X-Ray Emission from Its Dust-scattering Halo

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
GRB 221009A is the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever detected that has occurred at low Galactic latitude. Owing to this exceptional combination, its prompt X-ray emission could be detected for weeks in the form of expanding X-ray rings produced by ...

Different Frontier, Same Legal Script? On the Course of Replicating Earth's Patterns in Space

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, Volume 89, Issue 5, Page 723-759, September 2026.
As states and private actors expand their activities in outer space, the international legal framework governing this domain risks extending longstanding structures of global inequality beyond Earth. This article examines how international space law, shaped by a broader disciplinary pattern of reactive legal development, is poised to reproduce ...

Radiative Transfer in Spiral Galaxies: Dust Extinction and Emission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
I review the results of our Monte Carlo models for the radiative transfer in the dusty disks of spiral galaxies. The simulations are compared to observations of dust extinction in the optical and emission in the FIR, with the aim of deriving the amount ...

Estimation of Dust Mass from Infrared Emission and Extinction of Supernova Remnants: G93.7−0.2, G109.1−1.0, G156.2+5.7, and G166.0+4.3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are major sites for both the production and destruction of interstellar dust, and quantifying their dust budget is essential for understanding the life cycle of cosmic dust.

The Great Cosmic Silence: What Does the Fermi Paradox Tell About the Future of Humanity?

open access: yesGlobal Policy, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 553-565, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines how institutional time horizons shape the long‐term survival prospects of human technological civilisation. While research on global catastrophic and existential risks has expanded, the temporal structures of political‐economic institutions remain underexamined.
