MOLYBDENUM AND RUTHENIUM ABUNDANCES IN COOL STARS OF THE GALACTIC DISC
We revise the molybdenum and ruthenium abundances in FGK stars with metallicities ranging from −1.0 < [Fe/H] < +0.3. The observed stars belong to the substructures of the Galaxy. The observations were conducted using the 1.93 m telescope at

Abstract Nowcasting and forecasting of the radiation environment in the Earth's lower atmosphere are critical for the safety of aircraft and spacecraft crews and passengers. Currently, this problem is addressed by employing statistical and physics‐based models that take into account particle transport and precipitation.

From international land deals to local informal agreements: regulations of and local reactions to agricultural investments in Madagascar [PDF]
In 2009, the 1.3 million hectare agricultural project planned in Madagascar by Daewoo Logistics exemplified the paradoxical position of the Malagasy state; simultaneously encouraging the development of large-scale acquisition and implementing a land ...

GRAVITY: getting to the event horizon of Sgr A*
We present the second-generation VLTI instrument GRAVITY, which currently is in the preliminary design phase. GRAVITY is specifically designed to observe highly relativistic motions of matter close to the event horizon of Sgr A*, the massive black hole ...

Kinetic Structure of an Interplanetary Shock Observed at Two Heliocentric Longitudes
Abstract Collisionless shocks convert bulk flow energy into heat, electromagnetic fields, and non‐thermal particle populations. Recent studies suggest that downstream magnetic oscillations could play an important role in ion‐scale energy dissipation at low‐Mach‐number shocks; however, the specific shock and plasma parameters involved remain poorly ...

Consequences of spectrograph illumination for the accuracy of radial-velocimetry
For fiber-fed spectrographs with a stable external wavelength source, scrambling properties of optical fibers and, homogeneity and stability of the instrument illumination are important for the accuracy of radial-velocimetry. Optical cylindric fibers are

Spectral Properties and Energy Injection in Mercury's Magnetotail Current Sheet
Abstract Mercury's magnetotail hosts a thin and highly dynamic current sheet (CS), where magnetic reconnection and strong fluctuations frequently occur. Here, we statistically analyze magnetic field power spectra across 370 magnetotail CSs observed by MESSENGER.

Asymmetries in stellar streams induced by a galactic merger
Stellar streams are sensitive to perturbations from, for example, giant molecular clouds, bars and spiral arms, infalling dwarf galaxies, or globular clusters which can imprint gaps, clumps, spurs, and asymmetries in tails.

Today, the motion of spacecrafts is still described according to the classical Newtonian equations plus the so-called "relativistic corrections", computed with the required precision using the Post-(Post-)Newtonian formalism.
