Imaging the transition between pre-planetary and planetary nebulae: integral field spectroscopy of hot post-AGB stars with NIFS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present 2 to 2.4 micron integral field spectroscopy of a sample of hot post-AGB stars with early-B spectral types, using the NIFS instrument on Gemini North. These stars are just beginning to ionize their immediate environments and turn into planetary

Current understanding of electroautotrophy and its relevance in astrobiology‐related research

open access: yesmLife, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 473-493, October 2025.
Abstract Electroautotrophy—the use of extracellular electrons as the primary energy source for autotrophic metabolism—remains understudied compared to photoautotrophy and chemoautotrophy. Its occurrence in deep‐earth and deep‐sea environments suggests profound implications for astrobiology, yet electroautotrophic microorganisms remain poorly explored ...

Zinc abundances of planetary nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Zinc is a useful surrogate element for measuring Fe/H as, unlike iron, it is not depleted in the gas phase media. Zn/H and O/Zn ratios have been derived using the [Zn IV] emission line at 3.625um for a sample of nine Galactic planetary nebulae, seven of ...

Quantifying Serpentinization‐Driven Remagnetization From Ridge Axis to Subduction Zone Using Quantum Diamond Microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Diachronous ferromagnetic (sensu lato) mineral populations are often juxtaposed on micrometer‐to‐millimeter scales. This poses significant challenges for extracting reliable paleomagnetic information because standard methods measure bulk magnetic moments and cannot distinguish between magnetic minerals with overlapping demagnetization spectra.

Close Binaries and the Abundance Discrepancy Problem in Planetary Nebulae

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
Motivated by the recent establishment of a connection between central star binarity and extreme abundance discrepancies in planetary nebulae, we have carried out a spectroscopic survey targeting planetary nebula with binary central stars and previously ...

Business ethics, law and zemiology: The criminology of social and environmental harm

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 1886-1896, October 2025.
Abstract This speculative paper introduces zemiology, an extension of radical criminology which explores why many ‘crimes’ are not ‘illegal’ by focussing on the problem of ‘social harm’. Zemiology insists that we should begin with social or environmental problems, and not allow their foreclosure by the distraction of whether a particular practice is ...

A statistical investigation into relationships between the IIE irons and the ordinary, F and “HH” chondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 10, Page 2376-2400, October 2025.
Abstract It has been proposed that IIE iron meteorites formed through impact processes on a parent body that was composed of either the H chondrites or a much‐debated fourth ordinary chondrite group, the HH chondrites. To resolve this debate, we have compiled a large dataset for the ordinary chondrites, low‐fayalite ungrouped chondrites, and IIE irons,

Löpönvaara: A new phosphorus‐rich iron meteorite from Finland

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 10, Page 2442-2457, October 2025.
Abstract Löpönvaara is a rare new phosphorus‐rich iron meteorite find from Löpönvaara, Finland. The ~164 g meteorite was discovered in 2017 from the same area as the ungrouped Lieksa pallasite. Löpönvaara was classified as an ungrouped iron meteorite due to its unusually high concentration of P (>4 wt%), coupled with a moderate concentration of Ni (~11

Whither or Wither the Sulfur Anomaly in Planetary Nebulae?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present a thorough investigation of the long-standing sulfur anomaly enigma. Our analysis uses chemical abundances from the most extensive data set available for 126 planetary nebulae (PNs) with improved accuracy and reduced uncertainties from a 10° ×
