For this week's Creative Code challenge by @sableraph : “17 Squares”, SquaresInOrbits is visually coded with four layered & edited #LiveCodeLab sketches. Each layer contains 17 squares through 11 squares and one cube(which is made up of 6 squares) . Audio is Coded with #SonicPi to act as an orbital soundtrack.
Celestial Beings made of 17 Squares
Wandering around acting as this space
Is theirs
Within their tiers
Ignoring the others that are there
For this is their space
For their paths in their pace

❛❛ something big – often called #PlanetX – might actually be out there. And a new study by a team from #Princeton University has substantially raised the likelihood that it really exists.
The evidence comes from an apparently non-random distribution in the orientation of the #orbits of smaller outer #SolarSystem bodies known as trans-Neptunian objects or #KuiperBelt objects (KBOs). ❜❜

Once again it’s time for a quick update of activity at the Open Journal of Astrophysics. Since the last update a week ago we have published four papers, which takes the count in Volume 7 (2024) up to 102 and the total published altogether by OJAp up to 217. This means not only that we have reached a century for the year but also that so far in 2024 we have published more than double the number of papers that we published in all of 2023. I blogged about the significance of the figure 217 here.
In chronological order, the four 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.
First one up is “A generative model for Gaia astrometric orbit catalogs: selection functions for binary stars, giant planets, and compact object companions” by Kareem El-Badry (Caltech, USA), Casey Lam (Carnegie Observatories), Berry Holl & Jean-Louis Halbwachs (U. Geneva), Hans-Walter Rix (MPA Heidelberg, Germany), Tsevi Mazeh (Tel Aviv, Israel) and Sahar Shahaf (Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel). This one is in the folder Solar and Stellar Astrophysics. The paper presents a forward method for estimating the selection function (i.e. the probability of a system with a given set of parameters being included in a catalog). It was published on November 4th 2024.
Here is a screen grab of the overlay, which includes the abstract:
You can find the officially accepted version of the paper on the arXiv here.
The second paper to announce, published on 5th November 2024. is “Primordial magnetogenesis in a bouncing model with dark energy” by Marcus V. Bomfim (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), Emmanuel Frion (Western U. Canada), Nelson Pinto-Neto (Espírito Santo, Brazil), and Sandro D. P. Vitenti (Paraná, Brazil). This paper, in the section on Cosmology and NonGalactic Astrophysics, presents a discussion of the possible generation of magnetic fields on cosmological scales by in a model involving a scalar field coupled to electromagnetism
You can see the overlay here:
The accepted version of this paper can be found on the arXiv here.
The third paper, published on 6th November 2024 in the folder marked Astrophysics of Galaxies, is called “Evidence for large scale compressible turbulence in the ISM of CSWA13, a star-Forming Lensed Galaxy at z = 1.87 with outflowing wind” by Itzhak Goldman (Tel Aviv, Israel). It presents a statistical analysis of the spatial distribution and kinematics of nebular gas with discussion of the nature of the turbulence present.
Here is the overlay
The final version accepted on arXiv is here.
Last in this batch is “Star formation in the high-extinction Planck cold clump PGCC G120.69+2.66” by Anlaug Amanda Djupvik (Aarhus, Denmark), João L. Yun (Lisbon, Portugal), and Fernando Comerón (ESO, Garching, Germany). It was published on 7th November 2024 in the folder marked Astrophysics of Galaxies. The paper uses imaging and spectroscopy information to identify sites of star formation in a molecular cloud. This is the overlay:

That’s all for now. I will post another update in a week.

It is always a pleasure to attend Rocket Lab's launches, not least because they provide very interesting technical details about space activities. Good work.

Before launch, nominals are published but the exact launch time isn't known so they are published as if the launch were happening at some common time. After the launch, you update the parameters
I thought I understood how to do that but failed for hours to get it right
What I love about working here: Met with an officemate who is regularly consulted by the US gov't on orbit-related questions
I went looking for 'Earth orbital precession' and instead landed on this gem of a page.
