Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

Coupled Space Weathering: Nanophase Iron Formation by Micrometeoroid Impact and Solar Wind Sputtering

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Understanding the interplay between micrometeoroid impacts and solar wind irradiation is crucial for interpreting lunar surface evolution. Using reactive molecular dynamics simulations and surface binding energy (SBE) analyses, this study investigates the coupled effects of these two dominant space weathering processes on lunar regolith ...

Chamber‐by‐Chamber Measurements of Planktonic Foraminiferal Mg, Sr, and Na to Ca Ratios With Femtosecond LA‐ICP‐MS

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Distribution patterns of foraminifera are controlled by environmental parameters such as temperature, salinity, and nutrient concentrations in each water mass. Since trace elements to Ca ratios of marine microfossil calcite test of foraminifera record environmental and ecological habitat information, we used femtosecond (fs) LA‐ICP ...

Evaluation of Catch Performance and Environmental Impact of Technical Gear Modifications for a More Sustainable Scallop Dredging Fishery

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Catch and environmental performance of modified scallop dredge designs were assessed. Skid belly bags increased scallop catch by 14%–19% and reduced gear wear. N‐Virodredge reduced catch of scallop juveniles and sorting time. Gear footprint on the seabed was reduced by 50% for skid belly bags. N‐Virodredge cut fuel use by 30%, reducing carbon emissions

Prebiotic Organic Chemistry of Diketopiperazines

open access: yesAsian Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
Diketopiperazines (DKPs) are considered essential in many life forms, but their prebiotic importance has not been fully understood. This review aims to discuss prebiotic organic chemistry for experimentally and computationally simulated reactions involving DKPs. ABSTRACT Even though the significance of amino acids and polypeptides is well recognized in

Tongue Sarcoidosis: A Rare Case Report and Review of the Literature

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a case report with a literature review describing a rare manifestation of oral sarcoidosis involving the tongue in a 57‐year‐old woman with a prior diagnosis of cutaneous sarcoidosis. The lesion appeared as painless grayish‐white papules on the tip and dorsal surface of the tongue.

Arbor Accidents and Asteroids

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Nocardia infection should be considered in immunocompromised patients presenting with concurrent pulmonary and neurological symptoms. Species identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing are crucial. Co‐trimoxazole is the first‐line treatment.

Futures of Everyday Life: A Qualitative Content Analysis of Future Personas in Scenarios

open access: yesFUTURES &FORESIGHT SCIENCE, Volume 8, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Scenario reports, holding a long‐standing tradition in foresight and futures studies, act as an essential document for organizations to prepare for possible, plausible, and alternative futures. Focusing on descriptions and representations of everyday life, we examined 29 future persona narratives from six publications—covering a wide field ...

Optimal trajectory generation for multiple asteroid rendezvous

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis is focused on solving one component of the proposed problem in the Global Trajectory Optimization Competition released by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in late 2006. The goal is to find an optimal spacecraft trajectory to rendezvous with an asteroid in a group of asteroids.
