Abstract Refractory inclusions (RIs) in chondrites are widely used as tracers of early solar system formation conditions. In the context of sample‐return missions, a non‐destructive and non‐invasive analytical tool that can rapidly detect and characterize RIs in space samples during their early phase of study is highly needed.

X-ray Observations of Gravitationally Lensed Quasars; Evidence for a Hidden Quasar Population [PDF]
The large magnification factors of gravitationally lensed (GL) systems allow us to investigate the properties of quasars with X-ray luminosities that are substantially lower than those of unlensed ones and also provide an independent means of estimating the contribution of faint quasars to the hard X-ray component of the cosmic X-ray background.

A Possible Bias Model for Quasars [PDF]
We propose that the majority of quasars at redshift $z\sim 1 - 5$ formed in the environment of new born collapsed halos with 1-D velocity dispersion $\sigma_v^{1d} \sim 400 \kms$. The harboring coefficient $f$ of quasars per halo and the lifetime of quasars depend only on local process, not modulated by the density inhomogeneities on scales larger than

DESI z ≳ 5 Quasar Survey. I. A First Sample of 400 New Quasars at z ∼ 4.7–6.6
We report the first results of a high-redshift ( z ≳ 5) quasar survey using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). As a DESI secondary target program, this survey is designed to carry out a systematic search and investigation of quasars at 4.8 <

ABSTRACT Bacteriophages, or phages (viruses of bacteria), play significant roles in shaping the diversity of bacterial communities within the human gut. A phage‐infected bacterial cell can either immediately undergo lysis (virulent/lytic infection) or enter a stable state within the host as a prophage (lysogeny) until a trigger event, called prophage ...

Properties of Radio-Selected Broad Absorption-Line Quasars from the FIRST Survey [PDF]
In a spectroscopic follow-up to the VLA FIRST survey, the FIRST Bright Quasar Survey (FBQS) has found 29 radio-selected broad absorption line (BAL) quasars. This sample provides the first opportunity to study the properties of radio-selected BAL quasars.

Narrow [O iii] Emission Lines as a Potential Proxy for the Evolutionary Stage of Quasars
Radio spectral shape of quasars can provide insight into the ages of quasars. We have compiled data for 1804 quasars with z ≲ 1 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

We present bolometric luminosity ( L _bol ) and black hole (BH) mass ( M _BH ) estimators based on mid-infrared (MIR) continuum luminosity (hereafter, L _MIR ) that are measured from infrared (IR) photometric data.

Abstract Purpose This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of the frameless linear accelerator‐based stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) system incorporating cone‐beam CT (CBCT), six degrees of freedom (6‐DoF) couch, room laser, and surface image‐guided (SG) systems.

What makes red quasars red? Observational evidence for dust extinction from line ratio analysis
Red quasars are very red in the optical through near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, which is possibly due to dust extinction in their host galaxies as expected in a scenario in which red quasars are an intermediate population between merger-driven star ...
