How to make people do things with words

Noûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Sometimes we do what other people tell us to. A natural thought is that the motivation to act on an instruction comes about rationally as the result of interpreting an imperative and deciding to act on it; that is, by updating on information that gets mediated through belief‐desire reasoning.

Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...

Resistance training tempo selectively modulates corticospinal and reticulospinal excitability in humans

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Three weeks of unilateral resistance training (RT) performed under metronome‐paced (MP‐RT) or self‐paced (SP‐RT) conditions increased strength (maximum voluntary force (MVF) and one‐repetition maximum (1RM)) but were accompanied by distinct neural adaptations.

The Effect of Cluster Sets and Accentuated Eccentric Loading on Vertical Jump Performance and Strategy During Lower‐Body Complex Training

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study assessed general and more detailed post‐activation performance enhancement responses to cluster sets (CS) + accentuated eccentric loading (AEL) versus a traditional method (TRD) in vertical jump performance and strategy. Six men and six women completed lower‐body complex training: countermovement jump was performed at baseline and 1‐

Incorporating Particle Settling Enhancement in a Coarse‐Mode Deposition Model

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Dry deposition rates are usually assumed to rely primarily on gravitational settling, with some enhancement due to interactions with surface elements. However, it is known through experiment, theory, and simulation that vertical velocities of particles in turbulent flows can be enhanced by hydrodynamic effects (often referred to as ...

Is the Deep Martian Mantle Heterogeneous? A Reappraisal of Seismological Evidences

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract It has been proposed that the deep Martian mantle contains distributed heterogeneities preserved since the accretion of the planet. This result relies on a multiple‐scattering interpretation of frequency‐dependent arrival times of P $P$‐waves detected in the spectrograms of teleseismic Martian events.

Wide‐Range Adaptive Metal Oxide for Hydrogen Sulfide Detection From Earth to Space‐Like Environments

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
This work presents a gas sensing platform based on Cu‐doped SnO2 microspheres that operates reliably from ambient to space‐like conditions. The sensor maintains performance across vacuum and cryogenic environments, bypassing traditional oxygen‐mediated mechanisms, utilizing direct chemisorption and interfacial charge transfer.

Muscle Weakness and the Irisin–BDNF and Oxidative Stress Axis in the 60‐Day Pseudorandomised Controlled AGBRESA Bed Rest Study

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle atrophy and weakness are among the most detrimental consequences of disuse, microgravity, hospitalisation and ageing. Oxidative modifications of myofibrillar proteins generated by oxidative stress may contribute to the reduced force‐ and power‐generating capacity of skeletal muscles. As part of the 60‐day AGBRESA bed rest (BR)
