Preliminary data of potentially hazardous radon concentrations in Modrič Cave (Croatia)
Instigated by relatively high cave-air CO2 concentrations in Modrič Cave (Croatia) recorded for the purpose of speleothem-based paleoclimate research, we established preliminary monitoring of radon (222Rn) concentrations within the cave for a 4.5-year ...

Magnetically confined mountains on accreting neutron stars with multipole magnetic fields [PDF]
Magnetically confined mountains on accreting neutron stars are candidates for producing continuous gravitational waves. We formulate a magnetically confined mountain on a neutron star with strong multipole magnetic fields and obtain some sequences of numerical solutions.

Modelling neutron star mountains in relativity [PDF]
Rapidly spinning, deformed neutron stars have long been considered potential gravitational-wave emitters. However, so far only upper limits on the size of the involved quadrupole deformations have been obtained. For this reason, it is pertinent to ask how large a mountain can be before the neutron star crust fractures.
