NONSTEADY ACCRETION IN PROTOSTARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2009
Observations indicate that mass accretion rates onto low-mass protostars are generally lower than the rates of infall to their disks; this suggests that much of the protostellar mass must be accreted during rare, short outbursts of rapid accretion. We explore when protostellar disk accretion is likely to be highly variable. While constant $α$ disks can

Bulk mineralogy, water abundance, and hydrogen isotope composition of unequilibrated ordinary chondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 58, Issue 9, Page 1365-1381, September 2023., 2023
Abstract The origin and transport of water in the early Solar System is an important topic in both astrophysics and planetary science, with applications to protosolar disk evolution, planetary formation, and astrobiology. Of particular interest for understanding primordial water transport are the unequilibrated ordinary chondrites (UOCs), which have ...

Protostar Formation in the Early Universe [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2008
The nature of the first generation of stars in the universe remains largely unknown. Observations imply the existence of massive primordial stars early in the history of the universe, and the standard theory for the growth of cosmic structure predicts that structures grow hierarchically through gravitational instability.

Loading of Amino Acids onto RNA in a Putative RNA‐Peptide World

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 62, Issue 21, May 15, 2023., 2023
The loading of RNAs with amino acids constitutes the first step toward RNA‐based peptide synthesis in a putative prebiotic RNA‐peptide world. The efficient loading of RNA strands incorporating N‐methylcarbamoyl nucleotides with a series of amino acids is reported. The loaded RNA strands also underwent RNA‐based amino acid transfer reactions.

300: An ACA 870 μm Continuum Survey of Orion Protostars and Their Evolution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an 870 μ m continuum survey of 300 protostars from the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey using the Atacama Compact Array (ACA). These data measure protostellar flux densities on envelope scales ≤8000 au (20″) and resolve the structure of ...

The grain size distribution of matrix in primitive chondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 58, Issue 5, Page 688-704, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The matrix of primitive chondrites is composed of submicron crystals embedded in amorphous silicates. These grains are thought to be the remains of relatively unprocessed dust from the inner regions of the protoplanetary disk. The matrix of primitive meteorites is often compared to chondritic porous interplanetary dust particles (CP‐IDPs ...

Magnetic Effects Promote Supermassive Star Formation in Metal-enriched Atomic-cooling Halos

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Intermediate-mass black holes (with ≥10 ^5 M _⊙ ) are promising candidates for the origin of supermassive black holes (with ∼10 ^9 M _⊙ ) in the early universe (redshift z ∼ 6).

Lifetime of the Outer Solar System Nebula From Carbonaceous Chondrites

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 127, Issue 7, July 2022., 2022
Abstract The evolution and lifetime of protoplanetary disks (PPDs) play a central role in the formation and architecture of planetary systems. Astronomical observations suggest that PPDs evolve in two timescales, accreting onto the star for up to several million years (Myr) followed by gas dissipation within ≲1 Myr. Because solar nebula magnetic fields

[Retracted] Internet of Things System of Spatial Structure Sports Events Health Monitoring Based on Cloud Computing

open access: yesSecurity and Communication Networks, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
At present, the health monitoring system of world sports events uses the system's on‐site information or periodic test information to evaluate the health of the system. In order to make the data more accurate, the application of cloud computing is necessary.

Pulsed accretion in a variable protostar [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2013
Periodic increases in luminosity arising from variable accretion rates have been predicted for some close pre-main sequence binary stars as they grow from circumbinary disks. The phenomenon is known as "pulsed accretion" and can affect the orbital evolution and mass distribution of young binaries, as well as the potential for planet formation in the ...
