By Philipp Podsiadlowski, Stellar Astrophysics, University of Oxford, UK While the basic evolution of stars has been understood for many decades, there are still major uncertainties in our theoretical understanding of how stars end their lives, both in the context of low- and intermediate-mass stars (including the Sun) and massive stars. After reviewing some […]

By Norman Schumann, Klima vor acht e.V. It's hard to imagine that the world is coming to an end, and nobody's talking about it. Unfortunately, this happens every day in the German media, or, to put it differently, the issue is not being addressed. After more than thirty years since the establishment of the […]

By Rafal Weron, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland Although electricity price forecasting aims at predicting both spot and forward prices, the vast majority of research is focused on short-term horizons which exhibit dynamics unlike in any other market. The reason is that power system stability calls for a constant balance between production and […]
