SETI: Any Closer to a Discovery?
Presented on September 24, 2018 at 3:00 p.m. in the Pettit Microelectronics Research Center, Room 102A&B.Seth claims to have developed an interest in extraterrestrial life at the tender age of ten, when he first picked up a book about the Solar System ...

Properties of the Complete Phonon Spectrum of Anisotropic One- and Three-layer Wurtzite Nanostructures [PDF]
Within the Loudon dielectric continuum model, the theory of phonon spectrum is developed for the anisotropic wurtzite nanostructures: plane one-layer with binary and ternary components and three-layer with the same components.

Alteration of Feldspar‐Rich Rocks on Ancient Mars and Its Possible Link to Ca/Fe‐Rich Carbonates
Abstract Feldspar‐rich rocks have increasingly been discovered on the martian surface. They may have been an important part of the ancient martian crust and may be related to Ca/Fe‐rich carbonates (one of two types of carbonates on Mars and the other being Mg‐rich carbonates), but compared to mafic rocks, their interaction with water on ancient Mars is

Abstract Serpentinization produces hydrogen and methane through abiotic water‐rock interactions, potentially supporting chemotrophic life in planetary subsurface environments. Serpentine deposits in the Martian Noachian landscapes of Nili Fossae and the Southern Highlands have been considered as potential paleo‐habitable zones. However, the geochemical

Long-term Monitoring of Scintillation in the Pulsar J0332+5434
Changes in a pulsar’s scintillation characteristics over time can be a useful way to probe the properties of the interstellar medium. Monitoring the scintillation bandwidth can be useful for correcting for scattering delay in pulse arrival time, which ...

Evolutionarily Optimal Risk Aversion
ABSTRACT In an experimental choice situation, we identify risk‐acceptability thresholds and show how such thresholds are updated in response to benchmark information, a recurrent feature of health, safety, and environmental (HS&E) risk governance. We present a theoretical framework linking the observed behavior to an underlying evolutionary parameter ...

EXPLORING THE DETERMINANTS OF GLOBAL ‘SOCIAL PRODUCTION’ OF INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE: INSIGHTS FROM SETI@HOME [PDF]
Commons-based peer production is an activity that is emerging as a distinct mode of resource allocation and production of information, knowledge and culture (‘social production’ for short), potentially heralding a new stage in the development of ...
