Spectral Evidence for Recent/Ongoing Activity in Mercury’s Praxiteles Basin
Mercury’s surface, as revealed by the MESSENGER probe, lacks distinctive absorption features in the visible–near-infrared spectral range, except for hollows that display a 630 nm feature ascribed to sulfides.

Origin and early evolution of terrestrial planet atmospheres and oceans
Planet atmospheric compositions are determined by the availability of a gas species, its molecular weight and the mass (or gravity force) of a planet. Both Mercury and the Moon are not massive enough to hold any gas species to form an atmosphere.

100 Years of Element Zero: Andreas von Antropoff's Neutronium and the Naming of the Neutron
Congratulations to the 100th Anniversary of the publication of Andreas von Antropoff's element 0, “–“! This contribution provides a historical account of the concept of element zero and the naming of the neutron. The concept of element zero is 100 years old, having a first documented appearance in a 1926 publication by Andreas von Antropoff, while the ...

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia
ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...
