Skepticism and Ontological Parsimony
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, Volume 107, Issue 2, Page 86-98, June 2026.ABSTRACT External world skepticism is often thought to entail that we should suspend judgment about the existence of the external world. I challenge this orthodoxy by arguing that, when combined with a plausible principle of ontological parsimony, the skeptical challenge intensifies into an argument for outright disbelief in the external world.

Noble Gas Planetology and the Xenon Clouds of Uranus
The Planetary Science JournalNoble gases provide tracers of cosmic provenance that are accessible to a future Uranus atmospheric probe. Argon and krypton are expected to be well mixed on Uranus with respect to H _2 and He, although condensation at the winter pole may be possible ...

Probing methane in Uranus’ upper stratosphere using HST observations of the 1280 Å Raman feature
Astronomy & AstrophysicsWe analysed far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of Uranus obtained by the HST STIS and COS instruments in 2012 and 2014, respectively, to determine the brightness of Raman-scattered Lyman-alpha (Lyα) emissions centred at 1280 Å (hereafter, the Raman feature ...

(Co‐)Reference All the Way Down: A Unified Theory of (Pro) Nominals in Ordinary English
Theoria, Volume 92, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT This essay joins two themes, both arising from Kripke's inspiring ideas in the theory of reference. The first theme concerns reference in general. The second examines the notion of co‐reference and the role it plays in a unified theory of pronouns for natural language.

The Role of Planetary Rotation in Polar Cusp Localization
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract Juno observations have revealed that Jupiter's polar cusps are displaced toward dusk and even the nightside, contradicting the Earth‐derived paradigm that is confined to narrower ranges near noon. These findings underscore the overlooked influence of planetary rotation on magnetospheric dynamics, exposing a critical gap in current theoretical ...

Auroral emissions from Uranus and Neptune
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2020 Uranus and Neptune possess highly tilted/offset magnetic fields whose interaction with the solar wind shapes unique twin asymmetric, highly dynamical, magnetospheres.

Fluctuating Interfaces in Barotropic Beta‐Plane Turbulence
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Zonal jets manifest themselves as bands with sharp interfaces in the vorticity configuration. We develop an algorithm to track these fluctuating vorticity interfaces and systematically investigate their characteristic spatio‐temporal behaviors.

Observations of Uranus at High Phase Angle as Seen by New Horizons
The Planetary Science JournalWe present flux measurements of Uranus observed at phase angles of 43.°9, 44.°0, and 52.°4 by the Multispectral Visible Imaging Camera on the New Horizons spacecraft during 2023, 2010, and 2019, respectively.

Uranus’s Influence on Neptune’s Exterior Mean-motion Resonances
The Planetary Science JournalNeptune’s external mean-motion resonances play an important role in sculpting the observed population of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs). The population of scattering TNOs is known to “stick” to Neptune's resonances while evolving in semimajor axis ( a ),
