Rethinking brachycephaly: Anatomical implications and health considerations in lagomorphs
Abstract Brachycephaly in domestic rabbits is increasingly perceived by welfare organizations as associated with significant health complications, particularly oral pathologies. Despite this perception, comparative anatomical research into rabbit brachycephaly is limited compared to that of dogs and cats, compelling an in‐depth examination of its ...

Hubble Space Telescope Observations of UV Oscillations in WZ Sagittae During the Decline from Outburst [PDF]
We present a time series analysis of Hubble Space Telescope observations of WZ Sge obtained in 2001 September, October, November and December as WZ Sge declined from its 2001 July superoutburst.

Essential work, invisible workers: The role of digital curation in COVID‐19 Open Science
Abstract In this paper, we examine the role digital curation practices and practitioners played in facilitating open science (OS) initiatives amid the COVID‐19 pandemic. In Summer 2023, we conducted a content analysis of available information regarding 50 OS initiatives that emerged—or substantially shifted their focus—between 2020 and 2022 to address ...

The thermal properties and neutrino emissivity of matter in the dense, degenerate cores of white dwarfs, together with efficient heat transport through the high-density envelopes of these stars, affect the theoretical white dwarf luminosity function.

A Proper Motion Survey for White Dwarfs with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2
We have performed a search for halo white dwarfs as high proper motion objects in a second epoch WFPC2 image of the Groth-Westphal strip. We identify 24 high proper motion objects with mu > 0.014 ''/yr.

Characterizing Accreting Double White Dwarf Binaries with the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna and Gaia [PDF]
We demonstrate a method to fully characterize mass-transferring double white dwarf (DWD) systems with a helium-rich (He) white dwarf (WD) donor based on the mass–radius (M–R) relationship for He WDs. Using a simulated Galactic population of DWDs, we show

ABSTRACT We present new radial velocity measurements of 13 selected intermediate mass stars (2–6 M⊙). The measurements were performed between 29 April and 6 September 2024 at the University Observatory Jena using the échelle spectrograph FLECHAS. The radial velocity of eight stars was found to be constant during our spectroscopic monitoring, namely: 17

Numerical Simulations of Gaseous Disks Generated from Collisional Cascades at the Roche Limits of White Dwarf Stars [PDF]
We consider the long-term evolution of gaseous disks fed by the vaporization of small particles produced in a collisional cascade inside the Roche limit of a 0.6 white dwarf. Adding solids with radius at a constant rate into a narrow annulus leads to two
