The original text has been changed substantially since the first version of this paper. Finally, we have decided to split that submission in two parts. Each of them includes a large number of updates and corrections. They were placed on…
Open-source data exists, in widely scattered places, on photofission of the important nuclear isotopes ^{235}U and ^{239}Pu. This data is useful for studies aimed at detecting these materials at ports of entry. An introductory survey is…
We use a large grid of photoionization models that are representative of observed planetary nebulae (PNe) to derive ionization correction factors (ICFs) for sodium, potassium, and calcium. In addition to the analytical expressions of the…
We present a catalogue of 62 polluted white dwarfs observed by the 9th Low-Resolution Data Release of the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST LRS DR9v1; R$\approx$1,800) and the Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) of…
We review the properties and applications of binary and millisecond pulsars. Our knowledge of these exciting objects has greatly increased in recent years, mainly due to successful surveys which have brought the known pulsar population to…

I report the discovery of twenty-two new variable stars in the Northern Sky: eleven eclipsing, seven pulsating (one of which is suspected), three rotating, and one of unspecified type. Three already known variables (PT Lyr, [WM2007] 1157,…
A prototype of a new CsI(Tl) telescope, which will be used in the reaction studies of light isotopes with energy of several hundred AMeV, has been constructed and tested at the Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The…
An all-optical, near-resonant laser atom trap is used to prepare an electronically excited and polarized gas target at mK-temperature for complete photo-ionization studies. As a proof-of-principal experiment, lithium atoms in the…
Observations of interstellar lithium provide a valuable complement to studies of lithium in Pop I and Pop II stars. Large corrections for unseen LiII and for non-gas phase lithium have provided obstacles to using interstellar data for…
During the past one hundred years three related elementary particles - the electron, the muon, and the tau - were discovered by very different scientific techniques. The author, who received the Wolf Prize and the Nobel Prize for the…
Authors describe technical advances that will allow the IsoDAR cyclotron -- being developed for neutrino physics research -- to produce medical isotopes more efficiently than existing cyclotrons can.
We report the relative abundances of the three stable isotopes of silicon, $^{28}$Si, $^{29}$Si and $^{30}$Si, across the Galaxy using the $v = 0, J = 1 \to 0$ transition of silicon monoxide. The chosen sources represent a range in…
Abundances of about 18 elements including the heavy elements Y and Zr are determined from Hubble Space Telescope Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph ultraviolet spectra of seven extreme helium stars (EHes): LSE 78, BD+10 2179, V1920 Cyg,…
A broad array of interstellar absorption features that appear in the ultraviolet spectra of bright sources allows us to measure the abundances and ionization states of many important heavy elements that exist as free atoms in the…
While the Standard Model has experienced great predictive success, the neutrino sector still holds opportunities for surprises. Numerous ongoing and planned experiments exist to probe neutrino properties at low energies. The IceCube…
This article reviews the many new results from neutrino oscillation searches which were presented at ICHEP '98. Exciting indications of neutrino oscillations have been seen in the solar neutrino deficit, atmospheric neutrino deficit and…
We present the first detections of CH3SH, C3H+, C3N, HCOOH, CH2CHCN, and H2CN in an extragalactic source. Namely the spiral arm of a galaxy located at z=0.89 on the line of sight to the radio-loud quasar PKS 1830-211. OCS, SO2, and NH2CN…
The $\beta$-delayed neutron emission probabilities of neutron rich Hg and Tl nuclei have been measured together with $\beta$-decay half-lives for 20 isotopes of Au, Hg, Tl, Pb and Bi in the mass region N$\gtrsim$126. These are the heaviest…
This paper presents chemical abundance measurements for 12 new z>3 damped Lya systems discovered toward five quasars from the Palomar Sky Survey. We determine HI column densities from profile fits to the observed damped Lya profiles and…
