The GAPS Programme with HARPS-N at TNG - XIV. Investigating giant planet migration history via improved eccentricity and mass determination for 231 transiting planets [PDF]

, 2017
We carried out a Bayesian homogeneous determination of the orbital parameters of 231 transiting giant planets (TGPs) that are alone or have distant companions; we employed differential evolution Markov chain Monte Carlo methods to analyse radial-velocity

Benchmarking performance of annual burn probability modeling against subsequent wildfire activity in California

Scientific Reports
Wildfire simulation is deployed extensively to support risk management, and in the US has driven billions in federal investment. Foundational to strategic risk analysis is spatial information on the likelihood of burning in a fire year, typically ...

The Astrobiology of Alien Worlds: Known and Unknown Forms of Life

Universe, 2020
Most definitions of life assume that, at a minimum, life is a physical form of matter distinct from its environment at a lower state of entropy than its surroundings, using energy from the environment for internal maintenance and activity, and capable of

Kepler Planet Occurrence Rates for Mid-type M Dwarfs as a Function of Spectral Type [PDF]

Astronomical Journal, 2019
Previous studies of planet occurrence rates largely relied on photometric stellar characterizations. In this paper, we present planet occurrence rates for mid-type M dwarfs using spectroscopy, parallaxes, and photometry to determine stellar ...

Combining LiDAR and Spaceborne Multispectral Data for Mapping Successional Forest Stages in Subtropical Forests

Remote Sensing
The Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest presents great diversity of flora and stand structures, making it difficult for traditional forest inventories to collect reliable and recurrent information to classify forest succession stages.

A new climate for human nature? Navigating social theory through postnature, the anthropocene and posthumanism [PDF]

Filozofija i Društvo
By examining debates on the Anthropocene era ignited by new materialist and posthumanist scholarship, this paper aims to discern how these perspectives can reframe the human-nature nexus.

The Orbital Eccentricity of Small Planet Systems [PDF]

Astronomical Journal, 2018
We determine the orbital eccentricities of individual small Kepler planets, through a combination of asteroseismology and transit light-curve analysis.

A novel and superior diagnostic test for feline leukemia virus: enhanced precision in rapid detecting viral antigen in blood, plasma and serum

Virology Journal
Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) significantly impacts feline health worldwide. Although several FeLV antigen rapid tests are available, selecting an accurate diagnostic tool remains a clinical challenge. In this paper, we present a novel and robust point-of-

The hydrogen Lyman α line shape in the exospheres of terrestrial objects in the solar system

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
The exospheres of all objects are mostly made of atomic hydrogen. Because the Sun is bright in Lyman α, the properties of the H atoms in the exospheres of certain terrestrial solar system objects can be studied by analyzing the resonantly scattered solar
