This paper by Vasilyak and Shubralova makes an interesting observation that ELVES
#TLE
seem to be more likely to occur near tectonic plate boundaries. However, with just 37 events, I'm skeptical of the statistical significance of their results which isn't addressed in the paper at all. 🧪🧵

I was pleased to play a small role in this study of a jet from the protostar SVS13. In an elegant analysis led by Guillermo Blázquez-Calero, Mayra Osorio, & Guillem Anglada of IAA, we detect with ALMA wakes in the outflowing gas due to fluctuations in the jet.
