Recent results from LHCb for astroparticle physics
SciPost Physics Proceedings, 2023 The LHCb experiment is a general-purpose forward spectrometer designed for the study of heavy flavour physics at the LHC. The acceptance in the pseudorapidity range $2 < \eta < 5$ with full tracking and particle identification capabilities down to very ...

Energy Landscapes in Chemical Reactions and Transport
ChemPhysChem, Volume 26, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.Kinetics/dynamics of chemical reactivity and transport of chemical species in a solid are both determined by the energy landscape in which they take place. Discussing common grounds but also distinct differences may help in advancing the understanding in both fields.

The Interstellar Radiation Field and Its Interaction with the Interstellar Matter [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990 Most stars emit most of their radiation in the wavelength range between the far ultraviolet (FUV) and near-infrared (IR). Eddington (1926) first estimated for the solar vicinity a mean radiation intensity of the interstellar radiation field (ISRF) equivalent to that of blackbody radiation of ~3 K but with a spectral distribution that can be ...

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Bioethics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Classical bioethics examines moral issues in terrestrial medicine and the life sciences. According to Konrad Szocik, space bioethics merely relocates those questions to harsher environments. We argue that this view is incomplete: space bioethics is a genuinely original domain.

Out There No One Has a Right to Die
Bioethics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The eventual goal of space exploration is to colonize exoplanets and their moons outside our solar system. This is a dangerous and immoral endeavour. The extraterrestrial life forms encountered would be hostile, vulnerable or both, and the descendants of the original pioneers would be involuntarily exposed to hazardous conditions and ...

Abundances of Chemical Elements in Open Star Clusters as Indicators of their Nature
Open Astronomy, 2015 Applying a compilled catalog, we find that the relative abundances of α-elements in open clusters and in field stars of the thin disk of the Galaxy show different dependencies on metallicity, age and parameters of their Galactic orbits.

The futuristic manifolds of REM sleep
Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.Summary Since one of its first descriptions 70 years ago, rapid eye movement sleep has continually inspired and excited new generations of sleep researchers. Despite significant advancements in understanding its neurocircuitry, underlying mechanisms and microstates, many questions regarding its function, especially beyond the early neurodevelopment ...

Team Cognition Research Is Transforming Cognitive Science
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract About 30 years ago, the Dynamical Hypothesis instigated a variety of insights and transformations in cognitive science. One of them was the simple observation that, quite unlike trial‐based tasks in a laboratory, natural ecologically valid behaviors almost never have context‐free starting points.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.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 ...
