Weekly Update from the Open Journal of Astrophysics: 05/07/2025
It’s Saturday so, once again, it’s time for the weekly update of papers published at the Open Journal of Astrophysics. Since the last update we have published three new papers, which brings the number in Volume 8 (2025) up to 85, and the total so far published by OJAp up to 320.
The three papers published this week, with their overlays, are as follows. You can click on the images of the overlays to make them larger should you wish to do so.
The first paper to report is “Stellar reddening map from DESI imaging and spectroscopy” by Rongpu Zhou (Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA) and an international case of 56 others too numerous to mention individually. This paper was published on 1st July 2025 in the folder marked Astrophysics of Galaxies. It describes maps of stellar reddening by Galactic dust inferred from observations obtained using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument, and a comparison with previous such maps. The overlay is here:

Next one up is “On inertial forces (indirect terms) in problems with a central body” by Aurélien Crida (Université Côte d’Azur, France) and 17 others – again too numerous to be listed individually – based in France, Italy, Germany, Mexico and the USA. This paper discusses the indirect terms that arise the Newtonian dynamics of multi-body systems dominated by a central massive body, upon which other bodies exert a gravitational pull, when the massive body is treated as the origin of the coordinate system. This one, also published on July 1st 2025, is in the folder marked Earth and Planetary Astrophysics.

The last paper of this batch is “Stellar ejection velocities from the binary supernova scenario: A comparison across population synthesis codes” by Tom Wagg (U. Washington, USA), David D. Hendriks (U. Surrey, UK), Mathieu Renzo (U. Arizona, USA) and Katelyn Breivik (Carnegie Mellon U., USA). It was published on July 2nd 2025 in the folder Solar and Stellar Astrophysics and it presents comparison of the ejection velocities of stars ejected from binary systems by supernova explosions predicted in three different population synthesis codes.

That’s all the papers for this week. I’ll post another update next weekend.
