Abstract Cosmic dust particles originate from a wide variety of solar system and interstellar objects, including sources not identified among meteorite collections. Particles that survive atmospheric entry are retrieved on the Earth's surface as micrometeorites. The recovery of these micrometeorites has recently advanced to rooftop sites.

I. Physical Studies of Distant Comets. II. Morphologies of Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
Part 1: Broadband observations of comets P/Stephan-Oterma (1980g), Bowell (1980b) and Panther (1980u) in the visual (0.5 ≾ λ(µm) ≾ 0.9) and infrared (1.2 ≾ λ(µm) ≾ 20) wavelength regions are reported together with measurements in the 1.5 to 2.4 µm ...

A Raman Spectroscopic Study of Lightning‐Induced Glass Produced From Five Mineral Phases
Abstract Lightning‐induced volcanic spherules (LIVS) are glasses produced by the rapid melting and solidification of molten volcanic ash grains. High temperatures generated by lightning will alter the physical and chemical properties of minerals exposed to the discharge.

Spectroscopic survey of faint planetary-nebula nuclei. I. Six new "O VI" central stars
We report initial results from an ongoing spectroscopic survey of central stars of faint planetary nebulae (PNe), obtained with the Low-Resolution Spectrograph on the Hobby-Eberly Telescope.

Abstract The rapid recovery of the Winchcombe meteorite offers a valuable opportunity to study the soluble organic matter (SOM) profile in pristine carbonaceous astromaterials. Our interests in the biologically relevant molecules, amino acids—monomers of protein, and the most prevalent meteoritic organics—polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ...

Physical and Chemical Properties of Planetary Nebulae with WR-type Nuclei [PDF]
We have carried out optical spectroscopic measurements of emission lines for a sample of Galactic planetary nebulae with Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars and weak emission-line stars (wels).

The observed position of planetary nebulae nuclei on the luminosity - temperature diagram
The position of the central stars of planetary nebulae on the T/L diagram provides an important test of the stellar evolution theory. In this paper, we present, at first, a brief review of the recent works presented on this subject.

Research into the processes of photoionised nebulae plays a significant part in our understanding of stellar evolution. It is extremely difficult to visually represent or model ionised nebula, requiring astronomers to employ sophisticated modelling code ...
