Interstellar Scattering of the VELA Pulsar
The frequency dependence of the parameters of interstellar scattering between 837 and 8085 MHz for the Vela pulsar are consistent with thin-screen models of strong scattering. The magnitudes of the parameters indicate an anomalous turbulence along the path when they are compared with results for other pulsars with comparable column densities of free ...

Abstract The Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD) on the Curiosity rover has been characterizing the Martian surface radiation field since 2012. The dose observed by RAD is influenced by a variety of factors, including an essential one, the terrain. After parking near Murray Buttes in September 2016 where it first detected a ∼5% decrease in dose rate ...

Scattering of stars by interstellar clouds or massive clumps increases the stellar velocity dispersion and promotes a radial disk profile that is exponential.

Research on the interstellar medium and its interaction with the solar system constitutes a significant topic in planetary physics. As the Sun traverses the local interstellar cloud, interstellar neutrals penetrate the heliosphere, forming the ...

Cosmic Ray Scattering in Compressible Turbulence
We study the scattering of low-energy Cosmic Rays (CRs) in a turbulent, compressive MHD fluid. We show that compressible MHD modes -- fast or slow waves with wave lengths smaller than CR mean free paths induce cyclotron instability in CRs.

Interstellar Scattering And The Einstein Ring PKS 1830-211 [PDF]
The remarkably strong radio gravitational lens PKS 1830-211 consists of a one arcsecond diameter Einstein ring with two bright compact components located on opposite sides of the ring. We have obtained 22 GHz VLBA data on this source to determine the intrinsic angular sizes of the compact components.

Abstract Production rates for the cosmogenic radionuclides 10Be, 14C, 26Al, 36Cl, 41Ca, 53Mn, and 60Fe in a large variety of meteorites, that is, ordinary chondrites (H, L, LL), carbonaceous chondrites, HED meteorites, ureilites, Martian meteorites, and iron meteorites and in the uppermost ~2 m of the lunar surface are modeled.

Early Grain Growth in the Young Protostellar Disk HH 212 Supported by Dust Self-scattering Modeling
Grain growth in disks around young stars plays a crucial role in the formation of planets. Early grain growth has been suggested in the HH 212 protostellar disk by previous polarization observations.

O and Ne K absorption edge structures and interstellar abundance towards Cyg X-2 [PDF]
We have studied the O and Ne absorption features in the X-ray spectrum of Cyg X-2 observed with the Chandra LETG. The O absorption edge is represented by the sum of three absorption-edge components within the limit of the energy resolution and the photon
