Planetary mass function and planetary systems [PDF]
With planets orbiting stars, a planetary mass function should not be seen as a low-mass extension of the stellar mass function, but a proper formalism needs to take care of the fact that the statistical properties of planet populations are linked to the ...

Theory of planet formation and comparison with observation
The planetary mass-radius diagram is an observational result of central importance to understand planet formation. We present an updated version of our planet formation model based on the core accretion paradigm which allows us to calculate planetary ...

Dynamic changes in optical and chemical properties of tar ball aerosols by atmospheric photochemical aging [PDF]
Following wood pyrolysis, tar ball aerosols were laboratory generated from wood tar separated into polar and nonpolar phases. Chemical information of fresh tar balls was obtained from a high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS)

Evidence for benthic–pelagic food web coupling and carbon export from California margin bamboo coral archives [PDF]
Deep-sea bamboo corals (order Gorgonacea, family Isididae) are known to record changes in water mass chemistry over decades to centuries. These corals are composed of a two-part skeleton of calcite internodes segmented by gorgonin organic nodes.

On the Potential of Silicon as a Building Block for Life
Despite more than one hundred years of work on organosilicon chemistry, the basis for the plausibility of silicon-based life has never been systematically addressed nor objectively reviewed.

Mass wasting, as one of the most significant geomorphological processes, contributes immensely to planetary landscape evolution. The frequency and diversity of mass wasting features on any planetary body also put engineering constraints on its robotic ...

Planetary mass–radius relations across the galaxy [PDF]
Context. Planet formation theory suggests that planet bulk compositions are likely to reflect the chemical abundance ratios of their host star’s photosphere. Variations in the abundance of particular chemical species in stellar photospheres between different galactic stellar populations demonstrate that there are differences among the expected solid ...

Size-Resolved Community Structure of Bacteria and Fungi Transported by Dust in the Middle East
The atmosphere plays an important role in transporting microorganisms on a global scale, yet the processes affecting the composition of the airborne microbiome, the aerobiome, are not fully outlined. Here we present the community compositions of bacteria

Isotopic evolution of planetary crusts by hypervelocity impacts evidenced by Fe in microtektites
Fe isotopic composition of the distal ejecta of a terrestrial impact crater records both evaporation and condensation, refining the nature of the isotopic fractionation taking place during hypervelocity impacts in the Solar System.
