Philosophy of Astrophysics

This PDF by Nora Mills Boyd, Siska De Baerdemaeker, Kevin Heng, and Vera Matarese is an explication of how the theory and observation balance within astrophysics. Items under discussion include laboratory astrophysics, the problem with the Hubble constant, and also how theory plays a game of give-and-take with observation in stellar population synthesis. Discussions on epistemological lessons extracted from gravitational-wave astrophysics are also present, covering simulation practices, idealisations in computer modeling, and verification of data. Discussing the philosophical implications of observational black hole astrophysics and entity realism in extragalactic studies, it ends with reflections by a theoretical astrophysicist, providing an all-encompassing view into the foundations and methodologies that guide todays astrophysical research.

Atmospheric Chemistry Lecture Notes by Prof. Jesse Kroll

This is a lecture note by Prof. Jesse Kroll, focusing on chemical transformations in trace species of Earth's atmosphere. The note highlighted how human activity impacts both air quality and climate-from covering major concepts such as photochemistry and ozone-depleting compounds to aerosol chemistry. The note provides a comprehensive summary of what drives atmospheric chemistry, from sources and sinks of greenhouse gases to names and processes. The paper is designed for better understanding of the atmospheric processes concerning anthropogenic influences and their implication in environmental science.
