Asymmetric mass-loss from the white dwarf WD 0253+209 : Secret revealed

open access: yesBibechana, 2012
Dust structures around the white dwarf WD 0253+209 is studied in 100 and 60 micron infrared image. These images are received from Infrared Astronomical Satellite Survey (IRAS Survey).

Al2O Photochemistry

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The chemistry within the interstellar medium (ISM) is notably influenced by the interplay between kinetics and photochemical processes, which play significant roles in both the formation and destruction of molecular species.

Transport of positrons in the interstellar medium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This work investigates some aspects of the transport of low-energy positrons in the interstellar medium (ISM). We consider resonance interactions with magnetohydrodynamic waves above the resonance threshold.

Detection of the buckminsterfullerene cation (C60+) in space

open access: yes, 2013
In the early 90s, C60+ was proposed as the carrier of two diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) at 957.7 and 963.2 nm, but a firm identification still awaits gas-phase spectroscopic data.

A Nest of Diffuse Interstellar Bands—Likely of Common Origin

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) have been proposed to cluster into distinct “families” each potentially linked to a single carrier molecule. In our study, we focus on identifying such a family within the spectral range of approximately 4945–4990 Å ...

Quasiperiodic Oscillations in GRB 210514A: a Case of a Newborn Supramassive Precessing Magnetar Collapsing into a Black Hole?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Magnetar is proposed as one of the possible central engines for a gamma-ray burst (GRB). Recent studies show that if a magnetar has a rotational axis misaligned from the magnetic one, a periodic lightcurve pattern is expected with a period of seconds to ...

Revisiting CN− Formation Mechanisms in Electron Collisions with Benzonitrile

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study explores negative ion formation via electron attachment, revealing CN− formation at 3.0 and 7–10 eV. Dissociation pathways are analyzed using G4(MP2) and CASPT2 calculations, highlighting the coupling between the π4* and σ* resonances critical for interstellar chemistry.

Circumstellar dust [PDF]

open access: yes
The presence of dust in the general interstellar medium is inferred from the extinction, polarization, and scattering of starlight; the presence of dark nebulae; interstellar depletions; the observed infrared emission around certain stars and various ...
