Abstract This study presents a cross‐comparison of mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) neutral temperatures between 88 and 110 km measured by ICON/Michelson Interferometer for Global High‐resolution Thermospheric Imaging (MIGHTI) and Thermosphere Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics/Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission ...

Microspherules formed by lightning strikes
Abstract Natural microspherules are formed by high‐temperature processes and are present throughout the geologic record to the present day. We report the discovery of large numbers of microspherules recovered from a rock pavement in the Pilbara region, Western Australia.

Constraints on planet X/Nemesis from Solar System's inner dynamics
We put full 3D constraints on a putative planet X by using the dynamics of the inner planets of the solar system. In particular, we compute the mimium distance of X as a function of its heliocentric latitude and longitude for different values of its mass.

Mountain‐top spherules: Criteria to identify natural and synthetic particles
Abstract Natural microspherules are important tracers of geologic and environmental processes in modern and ancient deposits. However, anthropogenic contamination can dilute natural collections by releasing synthetic microspherules into the environment.

Satellite motion for all inclinations around an oblate planet [PDF]
A uniformly valid solution for the motion of a satellite around an oblate planet is presented. The Two-Variable Expansion Procedure was applied to obtain a solution valid for all inclinations including the critical. This solution is correct to order ε, where ε is a small parameter proportional to the oblateness parameterJ2. The reciprocal of the radius

Abstract This study introduces an innovative method using equal spherical geodesic triangulation to uniformly sample the digital elevation model (DEM) of the lunar surface, ensuring an even distribution of elevation data. Utilizing spherical spline fitting, we have proposed new methods for calculating slope angles and aspects. An equilateral triangular

Abstract Anisotropy of magnetic remanence (AMR) holds promise for quantifying relative paleointensity values from sedimentary rocks. A proof of concept was established for applied fields that exceeded the intensity of the geomagnetic field. Under Earth‐like fields, large uncertainties necessitate the development of a new approach to improve the ...

Abstract Using the methodology of Cowley et al. (https://doi.org/10.1029/2025JA033993), we employ ∼8 years of Juno azimuthal magnetic field data to derive colatitude profiles of Jupiter's nightside (17‐05 hr via midnight) ionospheric equatorward Pedersen current from near the magnetic pole to inner magnetosphere field lines at 18° colatitude, from ...

Abstract Volcanic calderas are large depressions formed by the rapid collapse of overlying rock into a magma chamber during eruptions. We utilize Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH), a continuum, meshfree numerical method, to study the 2018 caldera collapse at Kīlauea volcano in Hawaii.
