Sub‐Auroral Heating at Jupiter Following a Solar Wind Compression
Abstract Jupiter's polar aurorae deliver significant heating at the poles, thought to spread across the planet through atmospheric winds. Additionally, ground‐based Keck observations have revealed a large‐scale high‐temperature region, spatially distinct from the aurorae.

Accretion of Saturn's mid-sized moons during the viscous spreading of young massive rings: solving the paradox of silicate-poor rings versus silicate-rich moons [PDF]
The origin of Saturn's inner mid-sized moons (Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione and Rhea) and Saturn's rings is debated. Charnoz et al. (2010) introduced the idea that the smallest inner moons could form from the spreading of the rings' edge while Salmon et al.

Bee‐Mediated Pollen Transport Across Five Urban Landscape Features: Buildings Are Important Barriers
Urban landscape features may disrupt or facilitate the foraging movements of insect pollinators; for example, bees are more likely to move along roads than across them. Here, we investigated not only roads but also lawns, gardens, forests, and buildings by measuring the transfer of fluorescent dye between flowering plants separated by each feature ...

Seismology of Giant Planets: General Overview and Results from the Kepler K2 Observations of Neptune
For this invited contribution, I was asked to give an overview about the application of helio and aster-oseismic techniques to study the interior of giant planets, and to specifically present the recent observations of Neptune by Kepler K2.

A simple fabrication method of polyglycolic acid (PGA) porous microneedle array patch (MAP) based on nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS) is developed. PGA porous MAPs exhibit high mechanical strength and absorption rates, which is considered an ideal minimally invasive approach as an alternative to hypodermic needles, showing potential for ISF ...

Detecting Planetary Oblateness in the Era of JWST: A Case Study of Kepler-167e
Planets may be rotationally flattened, and their oblateness thus provides useful information on their formation and evolution. Here, we develop a new algorithm that can compute the transit light curve due to an oblate planet very efficiently and use it ...

Abstract Certain spiral density waves in Saturn's rings are generated through resonances with planetary normal modes, making them valuable probes of Saturn's internal structure. Previous research has primarily focused on the rotation rates of these waves. However, other characteristics of these waves also contain valuable information about the planet's

Did Saturn's rings form during the Late Heavy Bombardment ? [PDF]
The origin of Saturn\' s massive ring system is still unknown. Two popular scenarios - the tidal splitting of passing comets and the collisional destruction of a satellite - rely on a high cometary flux in the past. In the present paper we attempt to quantify the cometary flux during the Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB) to assess the likelihood of both ...

Abstract In the present study, we aimed to determine the effect of moderate ambient heat stress on exercise‐provoked patterns of “leaky gut” biomarkers and stress markers in well‐trained athletes. Eleven triathletes performed a strenuous 1‐h treadmill run, both under normal ambient conditions (N, 18–21°C) as well as under moderate heat environmental ...
