Cramer, Masafumi Yagi, Alessandro Boselli, Elias Brinks, Francoise Combes, Luca Cortese, Boris Deshev, Matteo Fossati, Romana Grossová, Rongxin Luo, Jan Palouš, Tom C. Scott

“…We present new CO(2–1) observations (resolution ∼1″ = 460 pc) of the Coma cluster jellyfish galaxy NGC 4858 obtained from the ALMA-JELLY large program. Analyzing this data alongside complimentary Subaru H α and Hubble Space Telescope (F600LP / F350LP) observations, we find numerous structural and kinematic features indicative of the effects from strong, inclined ram pressure, including an asymmetric inner gas tail. …”

High-temperature dolomite in the Lower Cretaceous Cupido Formation, Bustamante Canyon, northeast Mexico: petrologic, geochemical and microthermometric constraints by Gabriela Sara Guzzy-Arredondo, Gustavo Murillo-Muñetón, Dante Jaime Morán-Zenteno, José Manuel Grajales-Nishimura, Ricardo Martínez-Ibarra, Peter Schaaf

“…The high temperatures recorded in the Cupido Formation dolomites are the result of a regional thermal anomaly developed probably around salt structures. 87Sr/86Sr values, oxygen stable isotopes, and trace element composition of dolomite suggest that the dolomitizing fluid was perhaps a hot mixture of formation water (modified sea water) of the Cupido Formation and brines derived from the updip La Virgen Formation, a carbonate-evaporite succession equivalent in age to the Cupido Formation. …”
