Solid state convection can take place in the rocky or icy mantles of planetary objects and these mantles can be surrounded above or below or both by molten layers of similar composition. A flow toward the interface can proceed through it by…
Bipolar molecular outflows have been observed and studied extensively in the past, but some recent observations of periodic variations in maser intensity pose new challenges. Even quasi-periodic maser flares have been observed and reported…
