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

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4015-4040, 1 September 2026.
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 ...

Towards a Measurement of the Primordial Helium Isotope Ratio

The Astrophysical Journal
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 ...

An Instrument for Isomer‐Specific Action Spectroscopy of Charged Clusters: Electronic Spectra of C 14 + and Ca@C 60 +

Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Disentangling spectral congestion of a mixture of isomers in gas‐phase spectroscopy is critical. We present an instrument combining ion mobility, mass spectrometry, and spectroscopy in a cryogenic 3D Paul trap to investigate the isomer‐specific charged clusters and illustrate its performance with the electronic spectra of C14+ and Ca@C60+. Interpreting

Spatially Resolved Comparison of SFRs from UV and Hα in GASP Gas-stripped Galaxies

The Astrophysical Journal
Star formation rates (SFRs) in galaxies offer a view of various physical processes across them, and are measured using various tracers, such as H α and ultraviolet (UV).

Absorption-line Observations of and CO in Sight Lines Toward the Vela and W28 Supernova Remnants

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Supernova remnants act as particle accelerators, providing the cosmic-ray protons that permeate the interstellar medium and initiate the ion–molecule reactions that drive interstellar chemistry. Enhanced fluxes of cosmic-ray protons in close proximity to

High-Resolution Optical Observations of Interstellar Absorption Lines [PDF]

Highlights of Astronomy, 2005
AbstractWe briefly note several current topics concerning the properties of interstellar clouds for which high-resolution optical spectra play a significant role: (1) the recognition and characterization of small-scale (sub-pc) structure in both atomic and molecular gas; (2) the discovery of variations in the 7Li/6Li isotopic ratio in the nearby ...

Latitude Survey of Neutrons and Muons to Determine Cosmic Ray Neutron Sensing Yield Functions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
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.

Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV MaStar: Quantification and Abatement of Interstellar Absorption in the Largest Empirical Stellar Spectral Library

The Astrophysical Journal
We assess the impact of Ca ii λ λ 3934, 3969 and Na i λ λ 5891, 5897 absorption arising in the interstellar medium (ISM) on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-IV MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar) and produce corrected spectroscopy for 80% of the 24,162-star ...

Near‐Earth Cosmic Ray Modulation Index ϕ and Neutron Monitor Cutoff Rigidities at Hourly Cadence: Toward an Improved Monitoring of Solar‐Terrestrial Radiation Environment, Space Weather, and Space Climate

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
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 (

Abundances of interstellar atoms from ultaviolet absorption lines

The Astrophysical Journal, 1986
The equivalent widths of interstellar absorption lines of Mg II, P II, Cl I and II, Mn II, Fe II, Cu II, and Ni II, obtained in a Copernicus survey of Bohlin et al (1983) have been analyzed to yield column densities along the lines of sight. The measured depletions are clearly correlated with n sub H, the mean hydrogen column density along the line of ...
