DOI: 10.1016/j.icarus.2020.114045
Abstract: Abstract Here we search for hydrogen chloride (HCl) in Neptune’s stratosphere using observations of the 1876.22 GHz J=3–2 transition from the Heterodyne Instrument for the Far-Infrared (HIFI) on Herschel. Observations comprise a 7.2 hr disc-averaged integration, originally… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/5.0149298
Abstract: Silicon nitride (Si3N4) is a promising substrate for high-power electronics due to its superior mechanical properties and potential outstanding thermal conductivity (κ). As experiments keep pushing the upper limit of κ of Si3N4, it is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2116645119
Abstract: Significance We compared body temperatures (Tb) and the associated thermoregulatory traits of 53 bird species from three climatically distinct areas to test the idea that maximum Tb and hyperthermia tolerance evolve in response to climate-related… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnrasl/slw241
Abstract: The recent discovery of an earth-like planet around Proxima Centauri has drawn much attention to this star and its environment. We performed a series of observations of Proxima Centauri using Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch (SPHERE),… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnrasl/slw249
Abstract: We here derive upper limits on the mass and luminosity of Population III (POPIII) dominated proto-galaxies based on the collapse of primordial gas under the effect of angular momentum loss via Ly$\alpha$ radiation drag and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2017.1779
Abstract: Across metazoa, surfaces for respiratory gas exchange are diverse, and the size of those surfaces scales with body size. In vertebrates with lungs and gills, surface area and thickness of the respiratory barrier set upper… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevd.104.102003
Abstract: With the increasing sensitivities of the gravitational wave (GW) detectors and more detectors joining the international network, the chances of detection of a stochastic GW background (SGWB) is progressively increasing. Different astrophysical and cosmological processes… read more here.
