A mission to discover and characterise Earth-sized planets and super-Earths orbiting Sun-like stars in the habitable zone of the solar system – scientifically led by the 天美传媒 - has been given the go-ahead today by the European Space Agency (ESA).
It rains on the Sun! The dynamics of cool condensation in the solar corona.

Coronal rain are cool dense condensations that form in coronal loops and are the manifestation of catastrophic cooling linked to thermal instability. In as series of recent studies Petra Kohutova & Erwin Verwichte (CFSA) investigated the dynamics of coronal rain.
Structure-Dynamics Relation in Physically-Plausible Multi-Chromophore Systems
This work explores the relationship between structure and energy transport on the nanoscale.
The electrons that make heavy rare earth metal magnets critical
A theory for magnetic ordering in metals investigates the temperature and magnetic field dependence of the magnetic states of the heavy rare earth elements Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb
