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.

Decisions Under Radical Uncertainty: The Role of Volitional Liminality in Radical Innovation
ABSTRACT Academic Summary Radical innovation management can be understood as an organizational practice that enacts distant futures, which are open‐ended and unknowable. Such radical innovation endeavors are thus characterized by radical uncertainty, where possible futures are not only quantitatively but qualitatively different from the present, and ...

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.

Aerial and Space‐Borne Seismology on Venus: Viability and Design Implications for Future Missions
Abstract Venus' evolution remains a mystery because of the lack of in situ geophysical data to constrain its interior structure. Recently‐selected planetary missions VERITAS (NASA), DAVINCI+ (NASA), and EnVision (ESA) will investigate the planet's interior, surface, and atmospheric chemistry.

The Case for a Completely Solid Martian Mantle—No Basal Magma Layer Extant
Abstract Recent results from the Mars InSight mission suggested the existence of a molten silicate layer atop the core‐mantle boundary. Geophysical modeling of this layer suggested that it must be denser than the overlying mantle but less dense than the core, and have either a viscosity similar to that of the overlying solid mantle or a strong chemical

Catalog of Planetary Nebulae Detected by GALEX and Corollary Optical Surveys
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

Key Points We recommend using the notation δ122/118SnNIST SRM 3161a for mass‐dependent Sn isotope data. We derived conversion factors relative to NIST SRM 3161a for Puri Sn CEZA (0.132 ± 0.011‰), Sn Lyon (0.229 ± 0.016‰), Sn IPGP (0.162 ± 0.018‰). Tin isotope compositions are presented for SPEX CertiPrep Sn and nine USGS reference materials.

M31 Planetary nebulae as seen by the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury [PDF]
We present a preliminary analysis of known planetary nebulae (PNe) in M31 that were observed in the first year of the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury HST Multi-cycle program.

Neutron-Capture Element Abundances in Planetary Nebulae
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 ...

Anhydrous minerals in asteroid Bennu: Evidence for well‐preserved primordial components
Abstract Aqueously altered carbonaceous astromaterials are dominated by secondary minerals, but a minor fraction of primary, anhydrous silicates and oxides escape alteration, offering insight into the original composition of asteroid parent bodies. We report the mineralogy, petrology, mineral chemistry, and oxygen isotopes of anhydrous minerals—50 ...
