Search for thermonuclear burst oscillations in the Swift/BAT data set

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
This study comprehensively analyzes type I X-ray bursts observed by Swift/BAT from 2005 to April 2024 to search for X-ray burst oscillations (XBOs) in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries.

The Rich Chemistry of Ionized Methanol With Sulfur Dioxide: Pathways to Prebiotic and Elusive Species in Earth's Atmosphere and Space

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The reaction between the methanol radical cation and sulfur dioxide is remarkably fast and forms several ionic and neutral products (HOSOH+, CH2OSO+, CH2OH+, CH2O, H2O, HSO2). The chemistry goes beyond simple proton or hydrogen transfer, revealing a close interaction between the two species, relevant to atmospheric and astrochemical environments where ...

Deep Learning–driven Atmospheric Parameter Prediction for Hot Subdwarf Stars with Synthetic and Observed Spectra

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We design a convolutional neural network incorporating channel attention and spatial attention mechanisms to predict atmospheric parameters of hot subdwarfs.

Size Matters: Barrier Heights and Widths in the Kinetics Of Tautomerisation and Rotamerisation of Thiotropolone and Its Five‐ and Three‐Membered Cyclic Analogues

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent experiments by Nunes et al. have demonstrated that unprecedented control of chemical reactions is possible by narrowband infrared vibrational photo‐excitation at low temperatures in inert matrices. The generated higher energy level conformers may then undergo rotamerisation and tautomerisation reactions which provide extremely useful ...

Discovery of a Long Thermonuclear X-Ray Burst from the Ultracompact Binary 4U 1850–087

The Astrophysical Journal
We report the detection of a long X-ray burst from the ultracompact binary 4U 1850–087. The type I X-ray burst was observed on MJD 60171.65 by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image and Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). We analyze the NICER

A future interstellar probe on the dynamic heliosphere and its interaction with the very local interstellar medium: In-situ particle and fields measurements and remotely sensed ENAs

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
The recently published Interstellar Probe (ISP) study report describes a pragmatic mission concept with a launch window that starts in 2036 and is expected to reach several hundreds of astronomical units past the heliopause within a time frame of ≥50 ...

Cis–Trans Rotational Isomerism of Formic Acid, Sulfur, and Selenium Analogues and Their Dimers: Chemical Kinetics Under Interstellar Conditions

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present chemical kinetic rate constants for the cis to trans isomerisation or rotamerization of monomeric seleno‐, thio‐, and formic acids and that of three of their dimeric species, based on variational transition state theory and multidimensional tunneling calculations in the gas‐phase, from 10 K to 300 K. These provide, firstly, reliable

The Story(line) So Far: A Survey on Storyline Visualization

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Storyline visualizations model narratives as temporal networks, using x‐monotone lines to represent entities and their interactions over time. This technique offers an intuitive way to reveal structural patterns over time, such as character co‐occurrence and narrative flow.
