Relaxation of Wobbling Asteroids and Comets. Theoretical Problems. Perspectives of Experimental Observation

, 2001
A body dissipates energy when it freely rotates about any axis different from principal. This entails relaxation, i.e., decrease of the rotational energy, with the angular momentum preserved.

Geometry, kinematics and rates of deformation in a normal fault segment boundary, central Greece [PDF]

, 2004
The geometry, kinematics and rates of deformation within a fault segment boundary between the ends of two major active normal fault segments have been investigated through examination of a faulted 126 ka marine terrace.

Detecting Planetary Oblateness in the Era of JWST: A Case Study of Kepler-167e

The Astronomical Journal
Planets may be rotationally flattened, and their oblateness thus provides useful information on their formation and evolution. Here, we develop a new algorithm that can compute the transit light curve due to an oblate planet very efficiently and use it ...

Macau as Method: Recombinant Urbanism in Post‐Socialist China

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In ‘Asia as Method’, Chen Kuan‐Hsing argues for the value of an indigenous inter‐Asian approach to analysing the effects of European imperialism on the countries and citizens of Asia. This article mobilises both Chen's inter‐Asian referencing strategy and the city‐state of Macau to explore Macau's role in China's engagements with global ...

Origin of chaos in the Prometheus–Pandora system [PDF]

, 2003
We demonstrate that the chaotic orbits of Prometheus and Pandora are due to interactions associated with the 121:118 mean motion resonance. Differential precession splits this resonance into a quartet of components equally spaced in frequency.

Quantifying the Relationship Between Climatic Conditions and Personal Financial and Health Well‐Being

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We address an important research gap by quantifying the association between weather conditions (sunshine, rainfall, temperature anomalies) and individual financial, mental and physical health self‐assessments. We compile a unique dataset of >400,000$$ >\mathrm{400,000} $$ observations (1991–2018) by matching individual‐level data (covering 380

A JWST Transit of a Jupiter Analog. I. Constraints on the Oblateness of Kepler-167 e

The Astronomical Journal
In 2024 October, JWST observed a transit of Kepler-167 e, a Jupiter-analog planet on a 1000+ day orbit. These observations, recorded over a long baseline of nearly 60 hr, were designed to search for signatures of planetary oblateness and/or exomoons ...

An Analysis of Hurricane Eyewall Ice Using a Novel Lagrangian Trajectory and Growth Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Ice crystals in tropical cyclones (TCs) remain infrequently observed and difficult to model using Eulerian microphysics parameterizations. To better understand TC eyewall ice crystal processes, the Ice Crystal Trajectory Growth (ICTG) model, previously applied to an idealized squall line, was used to simulate Lagrangian ice crystal ...

A General, Differentiable Transit Model for Ellipsoidal Occulters: Derivation, Application, and Forecast of Planetary Oblateness and Obliquity Constraints with JWST

The Astrophysical Journal
Increasingly precise space-based photometry uncovers higher-order effects in transits, eclipses, and phase curves that can be used to characterize exoplanets in novel ways.
