Deep Space Network Radio Science and Ground‐Based Planetary Radar in the Next Decade

open access: yesRadio Science, Volume 60, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The Deep Space Network (DSN) has been a core operational element of NASA's crewed and robotic exploration of the Solar System since the early 1960s. The primary role of the DSN has been to acquire telemetry and navigation data, but over the years, its radiometric and radar capabilities have expanded to form a system for obtaining unique ...

The COS CGM Compendium. V. The Dichotomy of O vi Associated with Low- and High-metallicity Cool Gas at z < 1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze the O vi content and kinematics for 126 H i -selected absorbers at 0.14 ≲ z ≲ 0.73 for which the metallicities of their cool photoionized phase have been determined. We separate the absorbers into 100 strong Ly α forest systems (SLFSs with 15 ≲

Redshift‐Agnostic Machine Learning Classification: Unveiling Peak Performance in Galaxy, Star, and Quasar Classification (Using SDSS DR17)

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 5, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Classification of galaxies, stars, and quasars using spectral data is fundamental to astronomy, but often relies heavily on redshift. This study evaluates the performance of 10 machine learning algorithms on SDSS data to classify these objects, with a particular focus on scenarios where redshift information is unavailable.

Introduction to X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2016
X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) is a well-established analytical technique used extensively for the characterization of semiconductors in solid or liquid, crystalline or amorphous, bulk or nanoscale form.

Probing the He ii Reionization ERa via Absorbing C iv Historical Yield (HIERACHY). IV. A Complex Redshifted Absorption System Intrinsic to Quasar

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
High-resolution spectra provide a powerful tool in studying the associated absorption lines in quasars. We present a case study of the quasar J014741-030247 at z  ∼  4.75, which hosts complex intrinsic absorption lines revealed by the high-resolution ...

The CIViL* Survey: The Discovery of a C iv Dichotomy in the Circumgalactic Medium of L* Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
This paper investigates C iv absorption in the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of L ^⋆ galaxies and its relationship with galaxy star formation rates. We present new observations from the C iv in L ^⋆ galaxies survey (PID # 17076) using the Hubble Space ...

MUSEQuBES: Unveiling Cosmic Web Filaments at z ≈ 3.6 through Dual Absorption and Emission Line Analysis

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
According to modern cosmological models, galaxies are embedded within cosmic filaments, which supply a continuous flow of pristine gas, fueling star formation and driving their evolution. However, due to their low density, the direct detection of diffuse

Neutral atomic-carbon quasar absorption-line systems at

open access: yes, 2015
We present the results of a search for cold gas at high redshift along quasar lines of sight carried out without any a priori assumption on the neutral atomic-hydrogen content of the absorption-line systems.
