In the Dark

It’s Saturday morning in Barcelona, and time to post another update relating to the  Open Journal of Astrophysics.  Since the last update we have published two more papers, taking  the count in Volume 7 (2024) up to 32 and the total published by OJAp up to 147. There’s every chance we will reach 150 next week.

The first paper of the most recent pair – published on  Monday 29th April- is “Supernovae in 2023 (review): possible breakthroughs by late observations” by Noam Soker of Technion in Haifa, Israel. It presents  a discussion of observations of the aftermath of supernovae explosions, such as supernova remnants, and how these may shed light on the explosion mechanism. This one is in the folder marked High-Energy Astrophysical Phenomena.

Here is a screen grab of the overlay which includes the abstract:

The second paper was published on Thursday 2nd May and has the title “ΛCDM is alive and well” The authors are: Alain Blanchard (Université de Toulouse, France), Jean-Yves Héloret (Université de Toulouse, France), Stéphane Ilíc (Université Paris-Saclay, France), Brahim Lamine (Université de Toulouse, France) and Isaac Tutusaus (Université de Genève, Switzerland). This one, which is in the folder marked Cosmology and NonGalactic Astrophysics, presents a review of  review of the alleged tensions between observations and the standard cosmological model.

I did a post recently relating to a Royal Society Meeting on this topic. The first version of this paper appeared on arXiv about two years ago but the final version is extensively modified.

And that concludes this week’s update. More next week!
