Anisotropies of the infrared background and primordial galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractWe discuss anisotropies in the near-IR background between 1 to a few microns. This background is expected to contain a signature of primordial galaxies. We have measured fluctuations of resolved galaxies with Spitzer imaging data and we are developing a rocket-borne instrument (the Cosmic Infrared Background ExpeRiment, or CIBER) to search for ...

Minor epic: Notes toward a different “Anthropoetry”

open access: yesAnthropology and Humanism, Volume 51, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Anthropologists have often turned to poetry as a means of accessing emotional registers of which conventional academic prose is unable to avail. In doing so, they have tacitly conflated poetry with lyric poetry, today probably the most widely practiced poetic genre, associated in particular with the expression of inner feelings and subjectival

Extremely Metal-poor Galaxies in DESI DR1: Connections to Galaxies in the Early Universe

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Extremely metal-poor galaxies (XMPGs), defined as having metallicities below 10% of the solar value, are considered possible local analogs to primordial systems and offer a unique window into early galaxy evolution.

EMPRESS. IX. Extremely Metal-poor Galaxies are Very Gas-rich Dispersion-dominated Systems: Will the James Webb Space Telescope Witness Gaseous Turbulent High-z Primordial Galaxies?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present kinematics of six local extremely metal-poor galaxies (EMPGs) with low metallicities (0.016–0.098 Z _⊙ ) and low stellar masses (10 ^4.7 –10 ^7.6 M _⊙ ).

Primordial Gas Collapse in The Presence of Radiation: Direct Collapse Black Hole or Population III star?

open access: yes, 2018
The first billion years in the evolution of the Universe mark the formation of the first stars, black holes and galaxies. The radiation from the first galaxies plays an important role in determining the final state of primordial gas collapsing in a ...

Gravitational torques in spiral galaxies: gas accretion as a driving mechanism of galactic evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The distribution of gravitational torques and bar strengths in the local Universe is derived from a detailed study of 163 galaxies observed in the near-infrared. The results are compared with numerical models for spiral galaxy evolution. It is found that

CI chondrite Oued Chebeika 002 links asteroids Bennu and Ryugu to common parent body

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 801-818, May 2026.
Abstract CI chondrites are a compositionally primitive group of meteorites that have undergone extensive aqueous alteration, providing insights into the evolution of primitive planetesimals. Oued Chebeika 002 is the most pristine CI chondrite to date.

Steps toward the power spectrum of matter. II. The biasing correction with sigma_8 normalization

open access: yes, 1998
A new method to determine the bias parameter of galaxies relative to matter is suggested. The method is based on the assumption that gravity is the dominating force which determines the formation of the structure in the Universe.

Galaxy clusters and the amplitude of primordial fluctuations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1990
The distributions of velocity dispersion, gas temperature, and mass-to-light ratio for Abell clusters are calculated here in the standard cold dark matter (CDM) cosmogony in order to test the validity of the hierarchical clustering model for the formation of cosmic structure and to fix the value of the biasing parameter b which quantifies the ...

Ryugu reference project: Recommendations from the measurement definition team

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 819-848, May 2026.
Abstract Sample return missions play a significant role in planetary science by providing pristine extraterrestrial materials. JAXA's Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions have returned samples from the C‐type asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of these samples closely resemble those of CI chondrites,
