The original form of Kepler's Third Law contains a caveat regarding the requirement of small eccentricities – a fact that has not been incorporated by the traditional Newtonian derivations.

Thinking with Bergson. The Last Problem: The Planet, and What It Is to Know
Can one think questions of social justice (as they pertain to histories of colonialism and racialization) together with the urgency of the climate crisis, which threatens the habitability of the globe?

Long extra-tropical planetary wave propagation in the presence of slowly varying mean flow and bottom topography. II: ray propagation and comparison with observations [PDF]
Ray theory is used to predict phase and group velocities for long planetary waves under realistic, albeit slowly varying, oceanic conditions. The results are compared with local theory using fields smoothed to the same amount (9° latitude/longitude) as ...

Igneous processes in the small bodies of the Solar System I. Asteroids and comets
Summary: Igneous processes were quite widespread in the small bodies of the Solar System (SBSS) and were initially fueled by short-lived radioisotopes, the proto-Sun, impact heating, and differentiation heating.

Counterfactuals and unphysical ceteris paribus: An explanatory fallacy [PDF]
I reconsider a type of counterfactual argument often used in historical sciences on a recent widely discussed example of the so-called “rare Earth” hypothesis in planetary sciences and astrobiology.
