Capture of interstellar objects during stellar encounters

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
As they orbit within the Galaxy, stars swim through a vast population of interstellar objects (ISOs). In this paper, we use N-body simulations to show that a fraction of ISOs within ∼1 pc of the Sun (its tidal radius) may be captured during the flyby of ...

Features of Ground Level Enhancement (GLE #74) Event on 11 May 2024

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Ground Level Enhancement (GLE #74) occurred on 11 May 2024 following an X5.8 solar flare from active region AR 13668 and the associated halo coronal mass ejection. The event was observed by both ground‐based neutron monitors (NMs) and space‐borne instruments and occurred during a deep Forbush decrease and one of the strongest geomagnetic ...

Prospects for Backtracing 1I/‘Oumuamua and Future Interstellar Objects [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2018
Abstract 1I/‘Oumuamua is the first of likely many small bodies of extrasolar origin to be found in the solar system. These interstellar objects (ISOs) are hypothesized to have formed in extrasolar planetary systems prior to being ejected into interstellar space and subsequently arriving at the solar system. This paper discusses necessary

An Upper Limit on the Interstellar Meteoroid Flux at Video Sizes from the Global Meteor Network

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Material arriving at our solar system from the Galaxy may be detected on Earth in the form of meteors ablating in our atmosphere. Here, we report on a search for interstellar meteors within the highest-quality events in the Global Meteor Network (GMN ...

Elastic Properties of Titan Tholins Revealed by Brillouin Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Titan tholins, complex organic solids synthesized by simulating photochemical processes in Titan's atmosphere, are widely regarded as analogs to organic surface materials on the Saturnian moon. Their mechanical properties are critical for understanding the evolution of Titan's geomorphology and crustal layering.

Molecular filming: A director's grammar for visualizing chemistry in motion

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, Volume 47, Issue 9, Page 1042-1057, September 2026.
Molecular filming names the practice, not just the product, of ultrafast structural science. In deliberate analogy to molecular editing, which rewrites connectivity in space, molecular filming records geometry in time, assembling time‐ordered structural frames into a movie of atomic motion and recasting the field as a grammar of directorial choices ...

Thin‐film lithium niobate photonics: Frontiers in millimeter‐wave and terahertz generation and integrated applications

open access: yesInfoScience, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
With the advancement of 6G communications, high‐precision radar, and advanced imaging technologies, there is a growing demand for compact, high‐performance light sources capable of generating high‐frequency radio waves (millimeter‐wave and terahertz waves). This article systematically introduces how to efficiently generate these high‐frequency waves on

Intercepting 3I/ATLAS at Its Closest Approach to Jupiter with the Juno Spacecraft

open access: yesAerospace
The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is expected to arrive at a distance of 53.56(±0.45) million km (0.358±0.003 au) from Jupiter on 16 March 2026. We show that applying a total thrust ΔV of 2.6755kms−1 to the lower perijove on 9 September 2025 and then ...
