Evolution of Terrestrial Planetary Bodies and Implications for Habitability

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The terrestrial planetary bodies of our solar system—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—share a common origin through nebular accretion and early magma ocean differentiation, yet they diverged significantly in geological evolution, tectonic regimes, and habitability.

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 ...

Weak magnetic fields in central stars of planetary nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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.

Comparison of Two Methods for Determination of Rhenium and Platinum‐Group Elements in Meteorites Using On‐Line and Off‐Line Matrix Separation Modes

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 737-750, December 2025.
Key Points PEEK tubing has been observed to adsorb Pd and Pt ions, resulting in significantly reduced recoveries of Pd and Pt elements. HPA‐S provides a more effective dissolution for meteorite samples than Carius tube digestion, resulting in higher mass fractions for PGE.

New Arabic Records From Cairo on Supernovae 1181 and 1006

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 9, November 2025.
ABSTRACT The remnant of the historical supernova SN 1181 is under discussion: While the previously suggested G130.7+3.1 (3C58) appears too old (3000–5000 year), the unusual star IRAS00500+6713 with a surrounding nebula (Pa‐30) has an expansion age not inconsistent with a SN Iax explosion in ad 1181 under the assumption that neither acceleration nor ...

On the distances of planetary nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Reconsidering calibration of statistical distance scales for planetary nebulae leads naturally to examining precision and especially the systematic errors of other methods.

Accretion and Differentiation of Vesta and the Mesosiderite Parent Body Inferred From Ni Stable Isotope Compositions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract We present high‐precision Ni stable isotope data for mesosiderites, eucrites, and diogenites to investigate the accretion and differentiation of asteroid 4 Vesta. Ni isotope variations in eucrites and diogenites are dominated by kinetic diffusion and chondritic contamination, rendering them unsuitable for reconstructing Vesta's primitive Ni ...
