Microspherules Formed by Lightning Strikes
Abstract Natural microspherules are formed by high‐temperature processes and are present throughout the geologic record to the present day. We report the discovery of large numbers of microspherules recovered from a rock pavement in the Pilbara region, Western Australia.

PHL 932: When Is a Planetary Nebula Not a Planetary Nebula? [PDF]
AbstractThe emission nebula around the subdwarf B (sdB) star PHL 932 is currently classified as a planetary nebula (PN) in the literature. Based on a large body of multi-wavelength data, both new and previously published, we show here that this low-excitation nebula is in fact a small Strömgren sphere (Hii region) in the interstellar medium around this

Aggregation and the Structure of Value
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

The evolution of planetary nebulae VII. Modelling planetary nebulae of distant stellar systems
By means of hydrodynamical models we do the first investigations of how the properties of planetary nebulae are affected by their metal content and what can be learned from spatially unresolved spectrograms of planetary nebulae in distant stellar systems.

Common-envelope shaping of planetary nebulae – IV. From protoplanetary to planetary nebula
ABSTRACT We present 2D hydrodynamical simulations of the transition of a protoplanetary nebula (PPN) to a planetary nebula for central stars in binary systems that have undergone a common-envelope event. After 1000 yr of magnetically driven dynamics (PPN phase), a line-driven stellar wind is introduced into the computational domain and ...

Combustion and Pyrolysis EA‐IRMS Techniques to Determine the δ2H of Diamonds
ABSTRACT Rationale Diamonds are generally considered to be metasomatic minerals originating from the Earth's mantle. They formed through the interaction of carbon‐bearing fluids or melts with the surrounding deep lithology. Most knowledge about the formation of diamonds comes from studying their mineral inclusions or stable isotopes.

Molecular Hydrogen Microstructures in Planetary Nebulae
Molecular hydrogen (H 2 ) emission is commonly detected in planetary nebulae (PNe), specially in objects with bipolar morphologies. New studies showed that H 2 gas is also packed in microstructures embedded in PNe of any morphological type.

Abstract This essay advocates renewed attention toward Jungian literary criticism, emphasizing its unique and creative perspectives on both fictional worlds and on reading. A fresh turn to Jungian criticism offers, in particular, valuable insight for texts on the peripheries of the canon.

Planetary nebulae, tracers of stellar nucleosynthesis
We review the information that planetary nebulae and their immediate progenitors, the post-AGB objects, can provide to probe the nucleosynthesis and mixing in low and intermediate mass stars.
