    Reconstructing the eruptive history of Antarctic volcanoes is particularly challenging due to extensive ice cover, limited outcrop exposure, and logistical constraints. In this study, we investigate three englacial tephra layers (DPT 1, DPT 2, and DPT 3) preserved within an ice sequence at 2581 m a.s.l. on the southwestern flank of Mount Melbourne (Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica). A...

    Gravitational-wave observations have opened a new window on the strong-gravity regime of General Relativity. While most detected signals are interpreted assuming isolated compact binaries, many astrophysical systems are expected to evolve in complex environments, such as the dense regions surrounding supermassive black holes in galactic nuclei. In these scenarios, external gravitational fields...
