Soft X‐Ray Emission From Saturn's Magnetosheath Part I: 3D Modeling From MHD Data
Abstract Saturn's magnetosheath hosts a mixed population of water‐group neutrals and solar wind plasma. We present a 3‐D model of soft X‐ray emission by ion‐neutral charge exchange in the near‐equatorial magnetosheath. The model employs MHD simulation data of plasma properties at Saturn, Enceladus‐genic neutral populations extrapolated from existing ...

High resolution studies of early type emission line stars [PDF]
This thesis presents a study of early type, emission line objects on small angular scales. Spectroastrometry is used to separate the spectra of unresolved Herbig Ae/Be binary systems.

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).

Extreme Value Analysis of Solar Green‐Line Corona During the Time Interval 1939–2025
Abstract Predicting the probability of extreme solar events is critical to understanding how to mitigate risks associated with space weather disasters, as their occurrence can pose a threat to life and infrastructure on Earth or in near‐Earth orbit. In the present study, extreme value theory is applied to the daily modified coronal index (MCI) for the ...

Low-frequency Absorption and Radio Recombination Line Features of the Galactic Center Lobe
The Galactic center lobe (GCL) is a ∼1° object located north of the Galactic center. In the mid-infrared, the GCL appears as two 8.0 μ m filaments that roughly define an ellipse.

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 ...

Resolved Measurements of the CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor in 37 Nearby Galaxies
We measure the CO-to-H _2 conversion factor ( α _CO ) in 37 galaxies at 2 kpc resolution, using the dust surface density inferred from far-infrared emission as a tracer of the gas surface density and assuming a constant dust-to-metal ratio.

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,
