The Interaction of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars with the Interstellar Medium [PDF]
, 2012 We study the hydrodynamical behavior of the gas expelled by moving Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars interacting with the ISM. Our models follow the wind modulations prescribed by stellar evolution calculations, and we cover a range of expected relative ...

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island
Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We perform a 2.5-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation of a quasi-parallel shock, using parameters for the Earth’s bow shock, to examine electron acceleration and heating due to magnetic reconnection.

An atlas of plant selenium metabolism
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Selenium (Se) is not only a rare and toxic element but also an essential micronutrient for humans and animals that is often in short supply. Terrestrial plants do not require Se, but it can have growth‐promoting or negative effects, depending on the exposure level.

On the Formation of Super-Alfvénic Flows Downstream of Collisionless Shocks
The Astrophysical JournalSuper-Alfvénic jets, with kinetic energy densities significantly exceeding that of the solar wind, are commonly generated downstream of Earth's bow shock under both high- and low-beta plasma conditions. In this study, we present theoretical evidence that

Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT This paper presents a close‐hearing analysis of Forest 404, a transmedial audio drama that was released to BBC Sounds in 2019. Despite the drama's eco‐dystopian critique of teleological ‘progress’ narratives (that enable and perpetuate the destruction of the natural world), I argue that the series ultimately propagates a sense of inevitability

Injection and acceleration of H+ and He2+ at Earth's bow shock [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 1999 We have performed a number of one-dimensional hybrid simulations (particle ions, massless electron fluid) of quasi-parallel collisionless shocks in order to investigate the injection and subsequent acceleration of part of the solar wind ions at the ...

Quasiperpendicular high Mach number Shocks
, 2015 Shock waves exist throughout the universe and are fundamental to understanding the nature of collisionless plasmas. Reformation is a process, driven by microphysics, which typically occurs at high Mach number supercritical shocks.

On the environment surrounding close-in exoplanets [PDF]
, 2015 Exoplanets in extremely close-in orbits are immersed in a local interplanetary medium (i.e., the stellar wind) much denser than the local conditions encountered around the solar system planets. The environment surrounding these exoplanets also differs in

Asymmetrically Distributed Kelvin‐Helmholtz Instability at Venusian Magnetosphere
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.Abstract The asymmetric distribution of Kelvin‐Helmholtz (KH) instability at Venusian ionopause is investigated using a multifluid model. Results show that KH instability distributes asymmetrically, preferentially developing in the −E (anti‐parallel to the interplanetary electric field) hemisphere.
