A planetary system as the origin of structure in Fomalhaut's dust belt
Article Abstract:
A study that detects optical light reflected from the dust grains orbiting Fomalhaut (HD 216956) is reported. The system is inclined 24 degree away from edge-on, enabling the measurement of disk structure around its entire circumference at a linear resolution of 0.5 (sub AU).

Timescales of shock processes in chondritic and martian meteorites
Article Abstract:
The peak pressure experienced, and the duration of impact in a chondrite and a martian meteorite is determined. The shock duration and the associated sizes of the impactor are found to be much greater in the chondrite, than in the martian meteorite.
