Infrared Observations of novae in the SOFIA era
Classical novae inject chemically enriched gas and dust into the local
inter-stellar medium (ISM). Abundances in the ejecta can be deduced from
infrared (IR) forbidden line emission. IR spectroscopy can determine the
mineralogy of grains that grow in nova ejecta. We anticipate the impact that
NASA's new Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) will have
on future IR studies of novae.Comment: To appear in the proceedings of "Physics of Evolved Stars 2015 - A

The circumstellar dust of "Born-Again" stars
We describe the evolution of the carbon dust shells around Very Late Thermal
Pulse (VLTP) objects as seen at infrared wavelengths. This includes a 20-year
overview of the evolution of the dust around Sakurai's object (to which Olivier
made a seminal contribution) and FG Sge. VLTPs may occur during the endpoint of
as many as 25% of solar mass stars, and may therefore provide a glimpse of the
possible fate of the Sun.Comment: To appear in the proceedings of "Physics of Evolved Stars 2015 - A

Dynamic Scaling in the Susceptibility of the Spin-1\2 Kagome Lattice Antiferromagnet Herbertsmithite
The spin-1/2 kagome lattice antiferromagnet herbertsmithite,
ZnCu(OH)Cl, is a candidate material for a quantum spin liquid
ground state. We show that the magnetic response of this material displays an
unusual scaling relation in both the bulk ac susceptibility and the low energy
dynamic susceptibility as measured by inelastic neutron scattering. The
quantity with can be expressed as a
universal function of or . This scaling is discussed in
relation to similar behavior seen in systems influenced by disorder or by the
proximity to a quantum critical point.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures v2: updated to match published version
The Lotic Intersite Nitrogen Experiments: an example of successful ecological research collaboration
Collaboration is an essential skill for modern ecologists because it brings together diverse expertise, viewpoints, and study systems. The Lotic Intersite Nitrogen eXperiments (LINX I and II), a 17-y research endeavor involving scores of early- to late-career stream ecologists, is an example of the benefits, challenges, and approaches of successful collaborative research in ecology. The scientific success of LINX reflected tangible attributes including clear scientific goals (hypothesis-driven research), coordinated research methods, a team of cooperative scientists, excellent leadership, extensive communication, and a philosophy of respect for input from all collaborators. Intangible aspects of the collaboration included camaraderie and strong team chemistry. LINX further benefited from being part of a discipline in which collaboration is a tradition, clear data-sharing and authorship guidelines, an approach that melded field experiments and modeling, and a shared collaborative goal in the form of a universal commitment to see the project and resulting data products through to completion
