Breathing pulses are mixing episodes that could develop during the core helium-burning phase of low- and intermediate-mass stars. The occurrence of breathing pulses is expected to bear consequences on the formation and evolution of white dwarfs ...

Unearthing the impact of earthquakes: A review of economic and social consequences
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to offer a comprehensive overview of the socioeconomic effects of earthquakes. We begin with a thorough literature review. Following this, we assess policy measures taken in response to major earthquakes, drawing on existing research to formulate insights and recommendations that policymakers can use to effectively

A Short Intense Dynamo at the Onset of Crystallization in White Dwarfs
The origin of large magnetic fields (≳10 ^6 G) in isolated white dwarfs is not clear. One possible explanation is that crystallization of the star’s core drives compositional convection, which when combined with the star’s rotation, can drive a dynamo ...

Abstract Provoked by a lack of appropriate political action on the global climate and biodiversity crisis, we present a perspective advocating and demonstrating a new plurality in scientific communication methods. Science writing, in being objective and dispassionate, actively seeks to mask empathetic connection and hides curiosities that may exist ...

We estimated the future distribution of alpine and subalpine vegetation types under climate change in the Taisetsu Mountains, Daisetsuzan National Park, Hokkaido (northern Japan). Under the RCP2.6 scenario, habitats suitable for snowbeds and alpine heathland/fellfield drastically decreased overall.

Constraining the origin of magnetic white dwarfs [PDF]
The origin of magnetic white dwarfs has been a long standing puzzle. Proposed origin mechanisms have included: fossil fields frozen in from the progenitor convective core; a dynamo in the progenitor envelope; crystallization dynamos in sufficiently cool white dwarfs; and accretion disk dynamos from white dwarf-white dwarf mergers or tidally shredded ...

White fonio (Digitaria exilis [Kippist] Stapf) is an understudied millet crop, indigenous to West Africa and cultivated in the region largely through traditional practices. This species is climate‐resilient, fast‐growing, nutritionally rich, and provides livelihoods and food security to rural communities.
