ABSTRACT The discovery of radio‐quiet, x‐ray thermally emitting isolated neutron stars (XINSs) in the ROSAT All‐Sky Survey revealed a previously overlooked component of the neutron star population. Advancements in x‐ray instrumentation and the availability of deep, wide‐area optical surveys now enable us to explore XINSs at fainter x‐ray fluxes and ...

Abstract This paper conducts a multi‐instrument and data assimilation analysis of the three‐dimensional ionospheric electron density responses to the total solar eclipse on 08 April 2024. The altitude‐resolved electron density variations over the continental US and adjacent regions are analyzed using the Millstone Hill incoherent scatter radar data ...

Accurate Astrometry of 22 Southern Hemisphere Radio Sources [PDF]
Milliarcsecond-accurate radio positions for 22 southern hemisphere extragalactic sources are reported. These positions are derived from Mark III very long baseline interferometry observations made between 2003 February and 2003 August. The results presented here supplement an ongoing project to increase the sky density of southern hemisphere sources in

Synthesis Imaging with a Lunar Orbit Array. II. Impacts of Instrument-induced Phase Errors
A lunar orbit interferometer array suffers from a number of systematics. Beyond systematics induced by the imaging algorithm itself and thermal noise considered in F.

Abstract We present James Webb Space Telescope observations of the globular cluster NGC 6397 and use them to extend to infrared wavelengths the characterization of the cluster's entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS). The data allows us to probe fundamental astrophysical WD properties and to search for evidence in their colors for (or against ...

Ultra-precise astrometry with the next generation of radio instruments
We are at the cusp of a generational shift in the power of radio interferometers, with both the SKA and ngVLA planning for exciting new and powerful instruments. These will be used in conjunction with other radio telescopes to provide VLBI with an order of magnitude greater sensitivity.

Not So Fast: A New Catalog of Meteor Persistent Trains
Abstract This paper presents the results of a nearly 2‐year long campaign to detect and analyze meteor persistent trains (PTs)—self‐emitting phenomena which can linger up to an hour after their parent meteor. The modern understanding of PTs has been primarily developed from the Leonid storms at the turn of the century; our goal was to assess the ...

Atmospheric propagation errors are a main constraint on the accuracy of very-long-baseline-interferometry astrometry. For relative astrometry, differential techniques can mitigate these errors, but their effectiveness diminishes with decreasing elevation

The fireball of November 24, 1970, as the most probable source of the Ischgl meteorite
Abstract The discovery of the Ischgl meteorite unfolded in a captivating manner. In June 1976, a pristine meteorite stone weighing approximately 1 kg, fully covered with a fresh black fusion crust, was collected on a mountain road in the high‐altitude Alpine environment.
