(Sub)mm-Wavelength Observations of Pre-Planetary Nebulae and Young Planetary Nebulae
This is a non-comprehensive review of observations of pre-Planetary Nebulae (pPNe) and young Planetary Nebulae (yPNe) at (sub)mm-wavelengths, a valuable window for probing multi-phased gas and dust in these objects.

Effect of Spruce Wood Density on Selected Fire-Technical Parameters during Thermal Loading
The paper evaluates the effect of spruce wood density on the parameters of mass loss and mass loss rate during exposure to thermal load. The intention was to determine whether the effect of density is still evident after the application of flame ...

AbstractMass loss on the AGB removes most of the envelope and leaves a compact remnant to become a white dwarf and perhaps first the central star of a planetary nebula. The envelope mass provides an upper limit on the material available to form the PN, and the terminal mass loss rate plus the small remnant mass left on the core determines how much of ...

Multi-method (XRF, FTIR, TGA) analysis of ancient bricks from Karabalgasun : A preliminary study
Ancient ceramic artefacts attracted the attention of scientists as being a chronological indicator within the archaeological context; however, they can also provide information about the tech-nology and provenance.

Partitioning Recent Greenland Mass Loss [PDF]
GRACE and Movement Together Recent measurements of the rate of mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet vary approximately by a factor of three. Resolving these discrepancies is essential for determining the current mass balance of the ice sheet and to project sea level rise in the future. Van den Broeke

ALMA’s Acute View of pPNe: Through the Magnifying Glass... and What We Found There
We present recent Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA)-based studies of circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) around Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars and pre-Planetary Nebulae (pPNe).

Mass Loss from Eta Carinae [PDF]
This high luminosity (5 × 106 L⊙) star since 1840 is losing mass at the rate of 7.5 × 10−2 M⊙ per year. The large mass loss could be the result of vibrational instabilities produced in the CNO hydrogen burning phase of a very massive (160 M⊙) star. The presence of high excitation lines in the ultraviolet spectrum of Eta Car suggests the idea of a hot ...

The paper assessed the impact of the heat treatment of spruce wood, the (radial and tangential) side of the specimens exposed to fire, and the type of material (prism—higher density, floor—lower density) on the combustion process and the rate of fire ...

Increasing mass loss from Greenland's Mittivakkat Gletscher [PDF]
Warming in the Arctic during the past several decades has caused glaciers to thin and retreat, and recent mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet is well documented.

Mass Loss from Cool Stars [PDF]
AbstractRecently obtained spectroscopic observations indicating mass loss in cool stars are reviewed with analogies to the solar atmosphere. Spectral diagnostics of mass loss are discussed with new theoretical calculations of chromospheric line profiles.
