The effect of early diagenetic processes on the quantification of fossil micrometeorite abundance and flux in the geological record

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Fossil micrometeorites (MMs) recovered from lithified sedimentary rocks, particularly iron‐rich (I‐type) cosmic spherules (CSs) provide valuable insights into past dust‐forming events. Their abundances, when combined with estimates of local sedimentation rates can be used to reconstruct the flux of extraterrestrial dust.

Improving Predictions of High‐Latitude Coronal Mass Ejections Throughout the Heliosphere

Space Weather, 2020
Predictions of the impact of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) in the heliosphere mostly rely on cone CME models, whose performances are optimized for locations in the ecliptic plane and at 1 AU (e.g., at Earth).

Self-modulation of nonlinear waves in a weakly magnetized relativistic electron-positron plasma with temperature [PDF]

, 2012
We develop a nonlinear theory for self-modulation of a circularly polarized electromagnetic wave in a relativistic hot weakly magnetized electron-positron plasma. The case of parallel propagation along an ambient magnetic field is considered. A nonlinear

Small‐scale elemental abundance variations in Ryugu particles from touchdown 1

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Ryugu materials closely resemble CI chondrites' mineralogical, chemical, and isotopic compositions; yet minor but resolvable differences in certain elemental abundances are evident. In this study, the bulk chemical compositions of eight individual Ryugu particles (1.5–4.3 mg) from the first touchdown site (TD1) were determined using triple ...

Extreme Plasma Astrophysics

, 2019
This is a science white paper submitted to the Astro-2020 and Plasma-2020 Decadal Surveys. The paper describes the present status and emerging opportunities in Extreme Plasma Astrophysics -- a study of astrophysically-relevant plasma processes taking place under extreme conditions that necessitate taking into account relativistic, radiation, and QED ...

Terrestrial ages of meteorites from the Atacama Desert (Chile) and insights into the past meteorite flux to Earth

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...

Mass Cycle and Dynamics of a Virtual Quiescent Prominence

The Astrophysical Journal
The mass cycle of solar prominences or filaments is still not completely understood. Researchers agree that these dense structures form by coronal in situ condensations and plasma siphoning from the underlying chromosphere.

Universal Time Influence on Stormtime Magnetosphere Ionosphere Coupling

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The offset between Earth's magnetic and rotational axes introduces a diurnal dependence in the high‐latitude EUV exposure of the northern hemisphere (NH) and southern hemisphere (SH). This variation raises the question: Does the Universal Time (UT) of geomagnetic storm onset impact its geospace consequences?

Hybrid viscosity and the magnetoviscous instability in hot, collisionless accretion disks

, 2008
We aim to illustrate the role of hot protons in enhancing the magnetorotational instability (MRI) via the ``hybrid'' viscosity, which is due to the redirection of protons interacting with static magnetic field perturbations, and to establish that it is ...

X–ray spectroscopy of astrophysical plasmas

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2002
We provide a qualitative review of key X-ray spectral diagnostics of astrophysical plasmas. We begin with a brief discussion of the two major types of equilibria, collisional ionization and photoionization, and then consider the behaviour of hydrogen-like, helium-like, iron L-shell and iron K-shell transitions for these separate cases.
