Mercury's Tectonics Record a Damage Zone From the Caloris Basin‐Forming Impact

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Caloris basin is the largest of the well‐preserved basins on Mercury and has left a dominant mark in the planet's geologic record. Previous analysis of orientations of a global compilation of Mercury's faults hypothesized that the Caloris basin‐forming impact introduced a widespread damage zone from which basin‐radial and ‐concentric ...

Technologized Reproduction in Space: A Space‐Bioethical Case for Assisted Procreation

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 582-588, July 2026.
ABSTRACT With the increasing feasibility of space colonization, the issue of reproduction in space is becoming more relevant. As new settlements on the Moon, Mars, and other celestial bodies emerge, ensuring generational continuity will be essential for the survival and growth of these communities.

Contemporary disasters may not kill more women than men: an empirical inquiry into sex‐differentiated fatalities in the twenty‐first century

open access: yesDisasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,

New knowledge about shock events that affected the L‐chondrite parent body from two heavily shocked L6 meteorite finds

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1610-1626, July 2026.
Abstract We report new results from a study of shock‐related features in the L6 ordinary chondrites Northwest Africa (NWA) 4672 and NWA 12841. Our observations confirm the occurrence of eight high‐pressure (HP) minerals in each meteorite, namely, ringwoodite, majorite, akimotoite, wadsleyite, albitic jadeite, lingunite, tuite, and xieite.

Static recrystallization of shocked calcite in Ries impact breccias

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1456-1473, July 2026.
Abstract Calcite is prone to chemical and microstructural modifications, especially after having been strained at high stresses and strain rates, as during hypervelocity impact events. These modifications include precipitation from pore fluid as well as replacement of strained volumes by recrystallization. In calcite aggregates of a metagranite breccia

Confirmation of the impact origin of the Late Ordovician Tvären impact structure (southeast Sweden) and emplacement of impactites in a marine setting

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1188-1212, July 2026.
Abstract The Tvären structure in southeastern Sweden has been listed as a confirmed marine‐target impact structure for decades. However, to date, no measurements and/or indexed data of planar deformation features in quartz grains from the structure have been published or any other unequivocal evidence of impact.
