Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...

Depletion patterns and dust evolution in the ISM [PDF]
, 1999 We review the use of elemental depletions in determining the composition of interstellar dust and present a new interpretation of the elemental depletion patterns for the dust forming elements in a range of diffuse cloud types. We discuss this within the

RF plasma production and electron processing of interstellar carbonaceous dust analogs.
, 2017 Carbonaceous dust in the diffuse interstellar (IS) medium is largely made of some sort of amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a-C:H), whose structure has been explained by two alternative models: small aromatic islands linked by aliphatic chains [1] or large polyaromatic structures with small aliphatic substituents at the edges [2].

The Astrophysical JournalThe interstellar medium (ISM) consists of a diversity of structures across a range of spatial scales, intimately tied to galactic evolution. In this work, Fourier analysis is used to characterize the spatial structures of dust and polycyclic aromatic ...

Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2026.New calculations have been applied to the pyrolysis of pyrrole under shock‐tube conditions and to the radical‐radical reaction between allyl and •CN at low temperature and pressure, using the same mechanistic scheme for both. ABSTRACT The pyrolysis of pyrrole has previously been studied in shock‐tube experiments and in jet‐stirred reactors. The results

Life Cycle of Dust in the Magellanic Clouds and the Milky Way
, 2014 To a great extent, our understanding of the life cycle of dust is based on the observational and theoretical studies of the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds, which will be the topic of this contribution. Over past years, a large volume of observations

The Dynamics of Reading Genre Fiction: Researching and Teaching Interpretive Practices
Reading Research Quarterly, Volume 61, Issue 2, April/May/June 2026.Conceptual model positioning genre fiction as a site for studying how narrative form organizes reader interpretation, identifying four dynamics—iterability, narrative interest, serialization, and spectacle—to guide empirical research on reading processes.

Dust Destruction in Shock Waves in the Cygnus Loop
The Astrophysical JournalSupernova remnant (SNR) shock waves are known to be important sources of dust destruction in the interstellar medium. Models of dust destruction in shocks have made various predictions of the destruction efficiency, but have generally been difficult to ...
