Identification of OB associations using the LAMOST-Gaia OB star sample
OB associations, as an intermediate stage between Galactic clusters and field stars, play an important role in understanding the star formation process, early stellar evolution, and Galactic evolution. In this work, we construct a large sample of OB stars with 6D phase space parameters ($l, b, d, V_{\rm los}, pmra ,pmdec$) by combining the distances from Bailer-Jones et al. (2021), radial velocities derived from low-resolution spectra of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Teles…

"In 2020, Berlin passed a law that resulted in a five-year rent freeze [...] for 90% of the flats in the city. While the law offered relief to about 1.5 million households who had seen rents rise by an estimated third in the six years prior, it was ruled as unconstitutional in 2021 after Germany’s highest court sided with landlords and property investment lobbyists who had argued it was inappropriate and illegal for the state to meddle with the private market."

A global wildfire paradox: Human impacts worsen even as total burned area declines
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and other institutions have spotted a contradiction in worldwide wildfire trends: Despite a 26% decline in total burned area from 2002 to 2021, the number of people exposed to wildfires has surged by nearly 40%.

Sept ans ont passé depuis ce post.
Et pourtant, la justice n’a toujours pas terminé son travail.
En Belgique, le jugement définitif est tombé en 2022. Mais en 2025, certaines indemnisations sont encore bloquées. Des victimes attendent toujours que leur souffrance soit reconnue dans les faits, pas seulement dans les mots.
En France, l’affaire OKC/Spatz a été relancée en 2017, réouverte officiellement en 2021. Et aujourd’hui ? Toujours aucune mis…

Observations of Successive CMEs and their Successive Type II Solar Radio Bursts in the Corona
This paper reports the observations of two coronal shocks from two Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) for the Successive type II Solar radio bursts observed on 02 May 2021 in the frequency range of 80 - 1 MHz with the time interval of ~ 20 minutes between them. Both the bursts show clear band splitting features in the harmonic band. The estimated heights for the source of the first type II burst lies in the range of 2.06 - 2.93 R0 with the average speeds of 601 + or - 76, 700 + or - 91 a…

Measurement of the branching fraction of $\psip \to ωηη$
Using a sample of (2.712 $\pm$ 0.014)$\times 10^{9}$ $\psip$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider in 2009, 2012, and 2021, the decay $\psip \to ωηη$ is observed for the first time. The branching fraction of the $ψ(3686)\toωηη$ decay is measured to be (1.65 $\pm$ 0.02 $\pm$ 0.21)$\times 10^{-5}$, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. Clear structures associated with the well-established $ω(1420)$ and $f_{0}(1710)$ resonances are…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Release of A databaSe of millimeTeR ObservatioNs of Asteroids Using acT (ASTRONAUT)
We present A databaSe of millimeTeR ObservatioNs of Asteroids Using acT (ASTRONAUT) hosted on Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS) in the form of a public Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket. This bucket is an Amazon cloud storage database containing flux measurements for a group of asteroids at millimeter (mm) wavelengths. These measurements were collected by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) from 2017 to 2021 in frequency bands centered near 90, 150, and 220 GHz. The ASTRONAUT database c…

Multi-Instrument Observations and Tracking of a Coronal Mass Ejection Front From Low to Middle Corona
The shape and dynamics of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) vary significantly based on the instrument and wavelength used. This has led to significant debate about the proper definitions of CME/shock fronts, pile-up/compression regions, and cores observations in projection in optically thin vs. optically thick emission. Here we present an observational analysis of the evolving shape and kinematics of a large-scale CME that occurred on May 7, 2021 on the eastern limb of the Sun as seen from 1 au. T…

Female Student Population at Kabul University Before the 2021 Ban: Trends, Gender Parity, and Faculty-Level Dynamics
For nearly two decades after 2001, Afghanistan's higher education sector expanded rapidly, with Kabul University serving as a central site of women's academic participation. Drawing on administrative records of student populations from 2016-2019 (Islamic calendar 1395-1398), this study examines gender distributions across shifts, faculties, and departments, with particular attention to STEM versus non-STEM fields. At Kabul University, the morning shift refers to the main daytime cohort (includi…
