On the distances of planetary nebulae [PDF]
Reconsidering calibration of statistical distance scales for planetary nebulae leads naturally to examining precision and especially the systematic errors of other methods.

Abstract Samples returned from asteroid Ryugu by the Hayabusa2 mission are dominated by fine‐grained matrix material made of phyllosilicates and nanosulfides. Here, we report the mineralogical, textural, and chemical characteristics of nanosulfide‐rich regions identified in Ryugu particles.

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 ...

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

Physiology of nitrogen: A life or death matter
Abstract With each breath, four out of every five molecules we inspire are nitrogen (N2), since this gas constitutes ∼80% of the atmospheric air that surrounds us. Despite its abundance and unlike molecular oxygen, N2 has traditionally held less appeal among physiologists given its lack of reactivity and corresponding inability to support combustion or

Irradiation Investigation: Exploring the Molecular Gas in NGC 7293
Background: Many planetary nebulae retain significant quantities of molecular gas and dust despite their signature hostile radiation environments and energetic shocks.

Weak magnetic fields in central stars of planetary nebulae [PDF]
It is not yet clear whether magnetic fields play an essential role in shaping planetary nebulae (PNe), or whether stellar rotation alone and/or a close binary companion can account for the variety of the observed nebular morphologies.

ABSTRACT Background Obtaining isotopic data on soluble organic compounds, such as amino acids, in extraterrestrial samples is crucial for understanding their origins, prebiotic chemistry, and potential contamination. Conventional GC‐IRMS requires grams of material to measure isotopic compositions, limiting the analysis of low‐concentration organics in ...
