Laboratory Astrophysics in the US

, 2022
Laboratory astrophysics is a strong and vibrant field in the US with its primary national representation as a full Division of the American Astronomical Society (AAS). Laboratory Astrophysics is also represented in other major scientific societies such as the Astrochemistry subdivision of the American Chemical Society (ACS), the High Energy Density ...

VUV and mid‐UV photoabsorption cross sections of thin films of glycine and alanine: Application to their photochemistry in the solar system

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Thin solid films of pure glycine or alanine (thicknesses ranging from 10 to 700 nm) were prepared on MgF2 windows using a vacuum sublimation/recondensation method. VUV‐UV spectroscopy of these films enabled us to characterize new absorption cross sections for glycine and alanine for VUV‐UV radiations between 120 and 300 nm.

Connecting astrophysics to laboratory fluid dynamics - Astrophysical thermonuclear flashes

30th Fluid Dynamics Conference, 1999
We discuss the strategy followed by the Center for Astrophysical Thermonuclear Flashes in validating codes designed for thermonuclear burning on the surfaces or the interior of evolved compact stars. As an illustration, we discuss in some detail our progress in simulating Rayleigh-Taylor mixing relevant to Type la supernovae. © 1999 by The Univ.

Entering the Era of Directly Supporting Society With Observation‐Based Ocean Acidification Data

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Ocean acidification is a growing concern for many nations around the world. However, our capacity to monitor changes in carbonate chemistry with sufficient spatial and temporal resolution, has until now, been limited, which has impeded effective action and decision‐making at international, national, and regional levels.

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Extragalactic eclipsing binaries: astrophysical laboratories [PDF]

New Astronomy Reviews, 2004
Eclipsing binaries (EBs) have long been known for providing accurate stellar fundamental properties, such as masses and radii. These are obtained from the modeling of light and radial velocity curves and, with input data of good quality, uncertainties of a few percent in the components’ physical properties are now routinely achieved.

A Field Guide to Corralling the Chaos: A Planning Framework for Using Models to Guide Opportunistic Field Studies of Natural Disturbances

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Watersheds regulate biogeochemical processes and provide ecosystem services to human societies, but disturbances can fundamentally alter these processes across space and time. Determining when and where to sample to capture disturbance impacts in watersheds remains a central challenge.
