Fossils as cultural heritage: Scientific, commercial and legislative issues

open access: yesGeology Today, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 263-272, September/October 2026.
Fossils are among the principal sources for understanding the history of life through ‘Deep Time’ and can inform projections of biotic responses to environmental change. Despite a widespread recognition of the scientific, historical and communication significance of fossils in our culture, their role as part of our cultural heritage is still far from ...

Microstructural evidence for multiple generations of sulfide precipitation and impact‐induced thermal alteration under acidic conditions on Asteroid Ryugu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2201-2217, September 2026.
Abstract Here we report on the microstructure and chemistry of sulfide minerals returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu. We identify a unique sulfide population in particle A0016 composed of violarite (FeNi2S4), pyrite (FeS2), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), pyrrhotite (Fe1‐xS), and pentlandite ([Fe,Ni]9S8).

Neutron-Capture Element Abundances in Planetary Nebulae

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
Nebular spectroscopy is a valuable tool for assessing the production of heavy elements by slow neutron(n)-capture nucleosynthesis (the s-process). Several transitions of n-capture elements have been identified in planetary nebulae (PNe) in the last few ...

Catalog of Planetary Nebulae Detected by GALEX and Corollary Optical Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
Planetary nebulae (PNs) consist of an ionized envelope surrounding a hot central star (CSPN) that emits mostly at ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths. UV observations, therefore, provide important information on both the CSPN and the nebula. We have matched the

Nature, origin, and phosphorylation potential of the phosphorus/sulfur‐bearing nanoscale multiphasic assemblages in the CM chondrites Murchison and Murray

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2303-2335, September 2026.
Abstract Carbonaceous chondrites contain phosphorus, whose speciation and thus history remain to be investigated. Phosphorus/sulfur‐bearing assemblages have been reported in carbonaceous CM chondrites, but there is no consensus about their exact compositions and origins.

A spitzer/infrared spectrograph spectral study of a sample of galactic carbon-rich proto-planetary nebulae

open access: yes, 2010
Recent infrared spectroscopic observations have shown that proto-planetary nebulae (PPNs) are sites of active synthesis of organic compounds in the late stages of stellar evolution. This paper presents a study of Spitzer/Infrared Spectrograph spectra for

The first discovery of a shocked, metasomatised CV3 chondrule‐fragment in a (Al,Cu)‐bearing micrometeorite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2269-2283, September 2026.
Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.

Planetary nebulae beyond the milky way - Historical overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Up to 10% of the total luminosity of a planetary nebula, ~500 L⊙, can be emitted in the dominant cooling line, [O iii] λ5007. This, coupled with the narrowness of the line (~15-25 km s-1), makes it extremely easy to detect PNe in external galaxies using ...

Aggregation and the Structure of Value

open access: yesNoûs, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 619-644, September 2026.
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.

Proposed nomenclature for extragalactic planetary nebulae

open access: yes, 2006
The ability to identify and distinguish between the wide variety of celestial objects benefits from application of a systematic and logical nomenclature.
