Charged dust and shock phenomena in the Solar System [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2006
The results on shock phenomena in dusty plasmas of the Solar System are reviewed. The problems of dust ion acoustic bow shock in interaction of the solar wind with dusty cometary coma and formation of transient atmospheres of atmosphereless cosmic bodies

Late Holocene moisture variability in Arctic Alaska from chitin δ18O

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Amplified warming in the Arctic has resulted in reduced sea‐ice extent, which can impact regional climate dynamics. Elucidating past moisture variability in response to changing temperatures and sea‐ice conditions can offer insight into how anthropogenic climate change may impact Arctic areas such as the Alaskan North Slope in the future. We contribute

Designing dual-plate meteoroid shields: A new analysis

open access: yes, 1982
Physics governing ultrahigh velocity impacts onto dual-plate meteor armor is discussed. Meteoroid shield design methodologies are considered: failure mechanisms, qualitative features of effective meteoroid shield designs, evaluating/processing meteoroid ...

The Carancas meteorite impact – Encounter with a monolithic meteoroid

open access: yes, 2008
The formation of a 13-m wide impact crater by a stony meteorite near Carancas, Peru, on September 15, 2007 was an unexpected event. Stony meteoroids usually disintegrate in the atmosphere in many pieces, each landing at low velocity.

Droughts and human impact in the ancient Uaymil region of the Maya lowlands inferred from a 2800‐year sedimentary archive at Lake Kaná, Mexico

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The relationship between the climate and societal transformation in Maya lowlands has long been debated, particularly the role of drought in shaping the civilization trajectory during the Classic Period. A high‐resolution, multi‐proxy, geochemical record from Lake Kaná, located in the underexplored Uaymil region of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico ...

Streamlets within meteoroid streams on NEA orbits [PDF]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2008
Five meteoroid streams of apparent asteroidal nature have been identified in the IAU_MDC Database of Photographic Meteors. Three streams contain streamlets, composed of two or more meteoroids sharing nimpact rate on the NEA population by objects 1 m or ...

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

On the origin and distribution of meteoroids [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research, 1970
The influence of collisional and radiative processes on the population of sporadic and shower meteoroids is examined. It is found that the observed distribution of sporadic meteoroids in the photographic and radio ranges is unstable: collisional processes would rapidly change the distribution of these particles if they are not replenished by a source ...

Affinification: A Fine Approximation of Deformations

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce affinification, a novel method for accelerating physics‐based animation of elastic solids. During a time‐dependent simulation, our method automatically partitions the space into affine and elastic regions depending on the deformation.
