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.

The Fate of Stellar Material: Radio Molecular Line Studies of Nearby Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Planetary nebulae constitute the near-end stages of low-to-intermediate-mass stars, when their ejected envelopes of gas and dust become ionized by their unveiled stellar cores.

Testing Cluster Membership of Planetary Nebulae with High-precision Proper Motions. I. HST Observations of JaFu 1 Near the Globular Cluster Palomar 6

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
If a planetary nebula (PN) is shown to be a member of a star cluster, we obtain important new constraints on the mass and chemical composition of the PN’s progenitor star, which cannot be determined for PNe in the field.

KINEMATICAL PROPERTIES OF PLANETARY NEBULAE WITH WR-TYPE NUCLEI

open access: yesPublications of The Korean Astronomical Society, 2015
We have carried out integral field unit (IFU) spectroscopy of H$α$, [N II] and [O III] emission lines for a sample of Galactic planetary nebulae (PNe) with Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars and weak emission-line stars (wels). Comparing their spatially-resolved kinematic observations with morpho-kinematic models allowed us to disentangle their three-dimensional ...

UBV Photometry of the Bright Nuclei of the Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1968
The data, which we have at present for the planetary nebulae central stars, are in general insufficient and uncertain. Even the photographic magnitudes of the brightest nuclei are usually given in the known catalogues with accuracies of 2m or 3m. Therefore, the determination of central stars' magnitudes by the photoelectric method seems to be of great ...

Löpönvaara: A new phosphorus‐rich iron meteorite from Finland

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 10, Page 2442-2457, October 2025.
Abstract Löpönvaara is a rare new phosphorus‐rich iron meteorite find from Löpönvaara, Finland. The ~164 g meteorite was discovered in 2017 from the same area as the ungrouped Lieksa pallasite. Löpönvaara was classified as an ungrouped iron meteorite due to its unusually high concentration of P (>4 wt%), coupled with a moderate concentration of Ni (~11

The Possibility of Beta decay in the Atmospheres of Nuclei of Planetary Nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1968
At present there is some basis for questioning the usual presentation of the nuclei of planetary nebulae as being ordinary stars. If the quantity of mass released by a star during its formation or at some stage of its evolution serves as a criterion for its not being stationary, then the nuclei of planetary nebulae are hardly the most non-stationary ...

Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 30, August 14, 2025.
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

Discovery of Faint Nebulosity around a Z Camelopardalis–type Cataclysmic Variable in Antlia: Nova Shell or Ancient Planetary Nebula?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report our discovery of a faint nebula surrounding a previously little-studied 15th mag variable star, ASASSN-19ds, in the Southern Hemisphere constellation Antlia. Spectra verify that the star is a cataclysmic variable (CV).
