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

The 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 ...

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

Bibechana, 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

The 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.

Interstellar dust within the life cycle of the interstellar medium

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
Cosmic dust is omnipresent in the Universe. Its presence influences the evolution of the astronomical objects which in turn modify its physical and chemical properties.

Effect of Supernovae on the Local Interstellar Material

, 2017
A range of astronomical data indicates that ancient supernovae created the galactic environment of the Sun and sculpted the physical properties of the interstellar medium near the heliosphere.

Composite Single‐Reference and Explicitly Correlated Multireference Calculations on the Mechanism of Pyrrole Pyrolysis

Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2026.
New calculations have been applied to the pyrolysis of pyrrole under shock‐tube conditions and to the radical‐radical reaction between allyl and •CN at low temperature and pressure, using the same mechanistic scheme for both. ABSTRACT The pyrolysis of pyrrole has previously been studied in shock‐tube experiments and in jet‐stirred reactors. The results

A Nest of Diffuse Interstellar Bands—Likely of Common Origin

The 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 ...

Circumstellar dust [PDF]

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 ...

Detection of the buckminsterfullerene cation (C60+) in space

, 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.
