Bistable equilibrium points of mercury body burden [PDF]
In the last century mercury levels in the global environment have tripled as a result of increased pollution from industrial, occupational, medicinal and domestic uses \cite{BaMe03}. Glutathione is known to be the main agent responsible for the excretion of mercury (we refer to \cite{Thim05}, \cite{ZalBar99} and \cite{Lyn02}).

Mercury (Hg) pollution is an acknowledged major environmental problem. Considering its extreme toxicity, Hg has recently been included in the top ten list of chemicals of major public health concern according to the World Health Organization. Once released into the environment, it is transformed in aquatic ecosystems by microorganisms into the ...

Many colleagues who have worked in casualty departments or emergency rooms will have encountered anxious parents bearing fragments of glass thermometers that do not include the mercury-containing bulb, and whose children are presumably suffering from indigestion or worse. Many of those colleagues will have found the parental anxiety infectious. Mercury

Gravitation induced shrinkage of Mercury's orbit [PDF]
In general relativity, the Mercury's orbit becomes approximately elliptical and the its perihelion has thus an additional advance. We demonstrate, meanwhile, that in comparison of those given by the Newton's theory of gravitation for the orbit of the Mercury, the circumference and the area are reduced by $40.39$ km and $2.35\ast10^{9}$ km$^{2 ...

Theory of Secular Chaos and Mercury's Orbit [PDF]
We study the chaotic orbital evolution of planetary systems, focusing on secular (i.e., orbit-averaged) interactions, because these often dominate on long timescales. We first focus on the evolution of a test particle that is forced by multiple massive planets.

The Chemical Composition of Mercury [PDF]
The chemical composition of a planetary body reflects its starting conditions modified by numerous processes during its formation and geological evolution. Measurements by X-ray, gamma-ray, and neutron spectrometers on the MESSENGER spacecraft revealed Mercury's surface to have surprisingly high abundances of the moderately volatile elements sodium ...

Dynamical Constraints on Mercury's Collisional Origin [PDF]
Of the solar system's four terrestrial planets, the origin of Mercury is perhaps the most mysterious. Modern numerical simulations designed to model the dynamics of terrestrial planet formation systematically fail to replicate Mercury; which possesses just 5% the mass of Earth and the highest orbital eccentricity and inclination among the planets ...
