Just listened to an interesting online talk (#Balloon Facility (https://www.tifr.res.in/bf/) - here are the slides about astronomical observations they do; see also https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.04877 for a 2021 review paper about this work and the mentioned papers https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2013/08/aa21614-13/aa21614-13.html ("Large-scale mapping of the massive star-forming region RCW38 in the [CII] and PAH emission") and https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2021/07/aa35739-19/aa35739-19.html ("[CII] emission properties of the massive star-forming region RCW 36 in a filamentary molecular cloud").

91% of 2021 already gone🤯

I watched E.T. (1982) recently. I remember seeing it as a kid but couldn't remember much except "phone home". I didn't like the child actors to be honest but the rubber puppet worked so well when it was lying on its "death bed" 😭
Surprised by the swear words they used though. Shit, dick....🫢 I wanted to see what the neighbourhood looks like today as it was a newly built suburbia in 1982. Turns out, somebody already did the research!

Funding, authorship patterns and citation impact of articles funded by Ukrainian agencies before and during Russia's full-scale war (2020-2023)
This study examines how Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine affected foreign co-funding, authorship patterns, and the citation impact of articles funded by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine (MESU), the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU), and the National Research Foundation of Ukraine (NRFU). The analysis includes articles in Scopus-indexed journals between 2020 and 2023. The share of articles funded by these agencies increased from 8.6% in 2020-2021 to 11.9% in 2…

The moduli spaces of left-invariant statistical structures on Lie groups
In the context of information geometry, the concept known as left-invariant statistical structure on Lie groups is defined by Furuhata--Inoguchi--Kobayashi [Inf. Geom. (2021)]. In this paper, we introduce the notion of the moduli space of left-invariant statistical structures on a Lie group. We study the moduli spaces for three particular Lie groups, each of which has a moduli space of left-invariant Riemannian metrics that is a singleton. As applications, we classify left-invariant conjugate s…
