The ever advancing scale of experimental nuclear physics has lit a fire under nuclear theorists. With the inevitable explosion in the number of exotic isotopes available for study at the soon to be operational Facility for Rare Isotope Beams and other rare isotope labs, the need…

Lower Earth orbits (LEO) have become the residence for a significant number of large space debris, most of which are defunct satellites and rocket upper stages. The said debris jeopardize regular spacecraft operations in LEO and act as sources of smaller debris as a result of co…

The majority of disc galaxies have a bar, and bars play a major role in the evolution of galaxies and their properties. Given the cumulative influence that bars can have over the properties of their host, determining the epoch of their formation becomes a fundamental step in und…
