An Angular Diameter Measurement of β UMa via Stellar Intensity Interferometry with the VERITAS Observatory

The Astrophysical Journal
We use the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging telescope Array System (VERITAS) imaging air Cherenkov telescope array to obtain the first measured angular diameter of β UMa at visual wavelengths using stellar intensity interferometry (SII) and independently

Single‐Particle Insights Into the Electronic Structure and Enhanced Stability of CsPbBr3/FAPbBr3 Core/Crown Nanoplatelets at the Nanometer Scale

Small, EarlyView.
Single‐particle‐level investigation using scanning tunneling spectroscopy reveals electronic structure and type‐I band alignment of individual CsPbBr3@FAPbBr3 core‐crown nanoplatelet. Crown passivation suppresses deep trap states by 47% and markedly improves electrical stability under repeated bias sweeps.

EAA: Adapting the Segment Anything Model for Perception-driven Astronomical Source Extraction

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Source extraction is a fundamental task in astronomical data analysis, yet existing methods are often specialized to specific instruments, spectral bands, or imaging conditions, which limits their generalizability.

Methodology for assessing the suitability of immature stages of Lepidoptera for nocturnal surveying using ultraviolet flashlights

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Lepidoptera are highly sensitive to changes in their surroundings, making them excellent indicators of ecosystem health; however, surveying adult butterflies of certain species presents challenges. Nocturnal surveying of larvae and pupae using ultraviolet light (UV) is gaining popularity as a simple, inexpensive, and non‐invasive method.

The PHANGS-HST-Hα Survey: Warm Ionized Gas Physics at High Angular Resolution in Nearby Galaxies with the Hubble Space Telescope

The Astronomical Journal
The PHANGS project is assembling a comprehensive, multiwavelength data set of nearby (∼5–20 Mpc), massive star-forming galaxies to enable multiphase, multiscale investigations into the processes that drive star formation and galaxy evolution.

Systemic effects of sunlight: 10‐year review of cardiovascular, infection and cancer outcomes

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This review highlights the systemic effects of sunlight and ultraviolet radiation. While UV radiation exposure has known cutaneous risks including photoaging and skin cancer, evidence suggests potential associations with reduced all‐cause mortality, improved infectious disease outcomes and reduced blood pressure.

Reassessing the organic carbon budget in the Murchison meteorite through an extraction–recovery mass‐balance approach

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract A substantial fraction of organic carbon in carbonaceous chondrites has long been described as “missing,” reflecting incomplete recovery and limited resolution of operationally defined organic components. Here, we present a quantitative reassessment of the carbon budget in the Murchison meteorite using an integrated extraction–recovery mass ...

Physics from Time Variability of the VHE Blazar PKS 2155-304 [PDF]

, 2010
Blazars are the principal extragalactic sources of very high energy gamma-ray emission in the Universe. These objects constitute a sub-class of Active Galactic Nuclei whose emission is dominated by Doppler boosted non-thermal radiation from plasma ...

Raman analysis of organic refractory materials after energetic processing: Evidence for amorphous carbon on TNOs and comets

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Amorphous carbon (αC) is found in various extraterrestrial particles, including those thought to originate from the outer Solar System. αC can form through two main processes involving C‐rich materials: exposure to energetic charged particles and thermal processing.

Nanoscale space weathering features in mature lunar soil revealed by TEM and APT

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Space weathering significantly alters the optical, chemical, and structural properties of lunar regolith at micro‐ and nanoscales; yet detailed nanoscale variability within individual soils remains underexplored. Here we apply transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe tomography to four mineral grains (olivine, ilmenite, and two ...
