These aren't the first results published -- there've been a couple of articles in Science, for instance.

Having said that, thanks for posting the link. It seems the paper is free, at least I was able to download the whole thing, and it's a nice, brief overview.

It would be great if you had the time to do a blog Emily highlighting the significance of those findings for we armchair observers.

Agreed. The fact that the Sun's isotropic distribution appears to be similar to that of Jupiter is interesting...would like to know more, there have to be other implications that I ain't smart enough to think about! smile.gif

Yet another unfortunate typo. rolleyes.gif "Isotopic", of couse. (Man... you can't get away with squad squat on UMSF, which is part of the reason that I love it.)

EDIT: Thanks, Dan! rolleyes.gif
