Modeling the Detectability of Energetic Heliospheric Ions at Pluto During the New Horizons Flyby
Abstract We investigate the detectability of heliospheric helium ions at energies up to 100 keV by the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft during its flyby through Pluto's induced magnetosphere. The Pluto Energetic Particle Spectrometer Science Investigation energetic ion detector observed a reduction in their flux by an order of magnitude as the spacecraft ...

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 ...

High-velocity interstellar absorption associated with the supernova remnant W28
We present an analysis of moderately high resolution optical spectra obtained for the sight line to CD-23 13777, an O9 supergiant that probes high velocity interstellar gas associated with the supernova remnant W28.

Ryugu reference project: Recommendations from the measurement definition team
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,

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

Aliphatic hydrocarbon content of interstellar dust
The mid-IR spectrum of the interstellar medium contains both aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon features. These are generally attributed to carbonaceous dust.

Spectroscopic Investigation of Thioacrolein by Variational and Perturbational Approaches
The vibrational and rotational spectra of trans and cis‐thioacrolein were studied by high levels of electronic and vibrational structure theory. Comparisons with experimental results are provided for several molecular quantities. ABSTRACT The vibrational spectra of trans and cis‐thioacrolein have been studied by 2nd order vibrational perturbation ...
