By Peter Smillie, Mathematical Institute, Heidelberg University Fullerenes are polyhedral molecules made of carbon atoms, first discovered in 1985. A few isomers are naturally occurring and many more have since been synthesised, with numerous applications across materials science, biology, and medicine. One source of theoretical interest in fullerenes is that there are a lot of […]

By Victor M. Panaretos, Institute of Mathematics, EPFL, Switzerland For one hundred years, the analysis of variance has been at the core of statistical inference. Though Fisher first distilled the notion circa 1920, its roots go much deeper in time, and ultimately lie in some of the most elemental concepts of geometry. This, in turn, […]

By Jürgen Knödlseder, IRAP, GAHEC, Toulouse, France The carbon footprint of astronomical research is an increasingly topical issue with first estimates of research institute and national community footprints having recently been published. As these assessments generally do not take into account the contribution of astronomical research infrastructures, we propose to complement them by providing […]

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 […]
