Data-driven magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the initiation of a coronal mass ejection with multiple stages

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the primary drivers of adverse space-weather events, yet their initiation and onset prediction remain insufficiently understood due to the complexity of the magnetic topology and physical processes in real solar source ...

Broad-band modelling of the GRB 230812B afterglow: Implications for very-high-energy γ-ray detections with IACTs

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
A significant fraction of the energy from the gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets, after powering the keV–MeV emission, forms an ultra-relativistic shock propagating into the circum-burst medium.

HST pre-imaging of a free-floating planet candidate microlensing event

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
High-cadence microlensing observations uncovered a population of very short-timescale microlensing events, which are believed to be caused by the population of free-floating planets (FFPs) roaming the Milky Way.

Infrared Nanocrystals for Space Application: Hardness to Irradiations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates infrared HgTe nanocrystals under X‐ray and ion irradiation, revealing remarkable radiation hardness. It uncovers distinct degradation mechanisms and shows that the nanomaterial outperforms integrated electronics. The results position colloidal nanocrystals as promising candidates for resilient space and harsh‐environment ...

Multi-satellite study of the excitation of Pc3 and Pc4-5 ULF waves and their penetration across the plasmapause during the 2003 Halloween superstorm [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2015
We use multi-satellite and ground-based magnetic data to investigate the concurrent characteristics of Pc3 (22–100 mHz) and Pc4-5 (1–22 mHz) ultra-low-frequency (ULF) waves on the 31 October 2003 during the Halloween magnetic superstorm. ULF waves are
