Modeled and Observed Stratospheric Temperature Changes: Implications for Fingerprint Studies
Abstract Changes in the vertical structure of atmospheric temperature are an important “fingerprint” of human effects on global climate. These changes are mainly driven by human‐caused increases in atmospheric levels of CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ and other well‐mixed greenhouse gases.

The Top Ten Astronomical 'breakthroughs' of the 20th century
Astronomy was revolutionized in the 20th century. The electron was discovered in 1897 and this transformed spectroscopy and introduced plasma and magnetohydrodynamic physics and astro-chemistry.

Auroral Emissions on Ganymede: New Constraints on Their Electron Energy Dependence
Abstract Auroral emissions on Ganymede provide critical insights into its magnetospheric dynamics and atmospheric composition. Using a physics‐based atmospheric model with recent atmospheric observations and laboratory measurements of electron‐impact cross‐sections, this study revisits and significantly refines the relationship between auroral emission

HARPO: a TPC as a gamma-ray telescope and polarimeter
A gas Time Projection Chamber can be used for gamma-ray astronomy with excellent angular-precision and sensitivity to faint sources, and for polarimetry, through the measurement of photon conversion to $e^+e^-$ pairs.

Europa is Embedded in Non‐Maxwellian, Anisotropic Electron Distributions
Abstract In September 2022, the Juno spacecraft flew by Europa, providing new insight into the electron pitch angle and energy distributions via the Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment electron analyzers (JADE‐E). We fit these observations with two anisotropic kappa distributions (cold and hot), accounting for spacecraft potential, which we find to

Anomalous Emission from Li- and Na-like Ions in the Corona Heated via Alfvén Waves
The solar ultraviolet intensities of spectral lines originating from Li- and Na-like ions have been observed to surpass the expectations derived from plasmas with coronal approximation.
