Reduced Geomagnetic Shielding During the Laschamps Excursion and Its Impact on Cosmic‐Ray‐Induced Atmospheric Radiation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Laschamps geomagnetic excursion (≈41,000 years BP) was a period of significant weakening and incomplete reversal of the Earth's magnetic field. The weakening substantially reduced geomagnetic shielding against cosmic rays (CRs), which contribute to phenomena at Earth, such as cosmogenic isotope production, and atmospheric ionisation and ...

The Local Group L-band Survey: Probing Cold Atomic Gas in IC 10 with Neutral Hydrogen Absorption

The Astrophysical Journal
We present the first localized detections of the cold neutral medium (CNM) in IC 10, offering a rare view of dense atomic gas in a low-metallicity ( Z / Z _⊙  ∼ 0.27) dwarf galaxy.

Measuring the 8621 A Diffuse Interstellar Band in Gaia DR3 RVS Spectra: Obtaining a Clean Catalog by Marginalizing over Stellar Types

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are broad absorption features associated with interstellar dust and can serve as chemical and kinematic tracers.

Interstellar absorption lines in the spectrum of 3C 273

The Astrophysical Journal, 1983
Absorption lines near the rest wavelengths of the Si IV doublet (wavelengths 1393.76, 1402.77) with equivalent widths 533 and 235 mA are reported in the spectrum of QSO 3C 273. The profiles show the nature of hot gas along a high-latitude (b = 64 deg) line of sight through our entire halo.

Entropy Export and Chemical Reactions in Plasmas

Plasma Processes and Polymers, Volume 23, Issue 1, January 2026.
In a non‐equilibrium plasma, energy is transferred to molecules by electron‐impact (1), collisions among excited molecules (2), and Joule heating (3). The entropy balance for this open system relates the energy available per molecule to changes in entropy, which determines plasma‐based gas conversion. ABSTRACT Is plasma truly a “fourth state of matter”?

The 2200 A bump and the UV extinction curve

, 2012
The 2200 A bump is a major figure of interstellar extinction. Extinction curves with no bump however exist and are, with no exception, linear from the near-infrared down to 2500 A at least, often over all the visible-UV spectrum.

Adsorption of Helium on Cationic or Anionic Tetracene and Pentacene

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
How does the arrangement of helium atoms that are adsorbed on tetracene or pentacene ions change with increasing coverage? When does the adsorption layer change from 1D to 2D, and to 3D? Is the transition abrupt? Are the helium atoms localized? Is the arrangement the same for cations and anions? What changes as the acene grows in length?

The chemistry of fluorine-bearing molecules in diffuse and dense interstellar gas clouds

, 2005
We present a theoretical investigation of the chemistry of fluorine-bearing molecules in diffuse and dense interstellar gas clouds. The chemistry of interstellar fluorine is qualitatively different from that of any other element, because - unlike the ...

Circular polarization of interstellar absorption lines at radio frequencies

The Astrophysical Journal, 1985
On etudie la formation d'un rayonnement de raies lineairement et circulairement polarise aux frequences radio lorsque le rayonnement d'une source continue eloignee se propage dans un gaz diffus comme le milieu interstellaire. On a obtenu les equations du transfert radiatif pour les parametres de Stokes (I, Q, U et V)

Photoelectron Spectroscopy of the Phosphorus Monosulfide (PS) and Phosphorus Monoxide (PO) Radicals

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
Sketch of the experiment to measure the photo electron spectrum of the PS radical produced in situ with a mixture of PH3, H2S and F atoms. PO and PS radicals are the smallest units of phosphorus oxides and phosphorus sulfides, respectively, two rich families of refractory compounds widely employed in industrial and technological applications. These two
