Non-isothermal vertical distribution functions for the Milky Way

Maria Djurić, Ralph Schönrich

The vertical structure of our Galaxy has commonly been assumed to follow a pseudo-isothermal distribution. However, there is no \textit{a priori} reason to expect this form to aris…

Mapping the z>=5 SiIV Column Density Distribution onto the Galaxy Stellar Mass Function Using the Cumulative Absorption Cross Section

Kristian Finlator, Sam Patterson, Nora Nava +4

Efforts to constrain directly the activity in low-mass galaxies confront sensitivity limits even in the JWST era. Metal absorbers offer a complementary probe and are easier to dete…

Mixing stochasticity relinquishes evidence for magnetorotational hypernovae

Anmol Aggarwal, Ralph Schoenrich

A recent work claimed by fitting the observed elemental abundance pattern of a halo star with the total yields from single super-/hypernova events that only a magnetorotational hyp…

The Kepler and TESS Asteroseismic Consortia - A Historical Overview

Mikkel N. Lund, Tiago L. Campante

This overview is, in short, about people. About an idea that grew into a consortium, then a community, and finally a way of doing asteroseismology in the space era. The Kepler Aste…

Evolution and Observable Properties of Rocky Planet Atmospheres

Marie-Luise Steinmeyer, Lena Noack, Philipp Baumeister +9

The atmospheric composition of rocky exoplanets offers an important tool for constraining the properties of the interior of this type of planet, beyond what is possible from measur…
