Abstract On December 2023, the Juno spacecraft made a flyby of Io above the northern hemisphere at a closest approach (CA) altitude of ∼1,500 km (PJ57). The Juno/Waves and Radio‐occultation measurements showed a surprising large electron density ∼28,000 cm−3 near closest approach.

JWST COMPASS: NIRSpec/G395H Transmission Observations of TOI-776 c, a 2 R⊕ M Dwarf Planet
The atmospheres of planets between the size of Earth and Neptune at short orbital periods have been under intense scrutiny. Of the approximately dozen planets in this regime with atmospheres studied so far, a few appear to have prominent molecular ...

Uranus' Long‐Term Thermospheric Cooling Is Unlikely to Be Primarily Driven by the Solar Wind
Abstract Over the last 40 yrs, Uranus' thermospheric temperature has decreased by ∼8 K/yr. Here we show that this is less likely to be driven by solar wind kinetic power than previously thought. We determine that the solar wind kinetic power at Uranus has been increasing since the start of solar cycle 24 in 2009, while Uranus's thermospheric ...

Finding high-redshift dark stars with the James Webb Space Telescope
The first stars in the history of the Universe are likely to form in the dense central regions of 10^5-10^6 Msolar cold dark matter halos at z=10-50. The annihilation of dark matter particles in these environments may lead to the formation of so-called ...

Using a Cold Radiometer to Measure Heat Loads and Survey Heat Leaks [PDF]
We have developed an inexpensive cold radiometer for use in thermal/vacuum chambers to measure heat loads, characterize emissivity and specularity of surfaces and to survey areas to evaluate stray heat loads.

Faint White Dwarf Flux Standards: Data and Models
Fainter standard stars are essential for the calibration of larger telescopes. This work adds to the calibration spectra (CALSPEC) database of 19 faint white dwarfs (WDs) with all-sky coverage and V magnitudes between 16.5 and 18.7.

This study presents an improved technique for Localization Optoacoustic Tomography using experimentally‐derived effective point spread functions. The method significantly enhances sub‐pixel localization performance, with applicable potential to relatively under‐sampled scenarios and other imaging modalities, paving the way for new frontiers in super ...
