Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.

Nasal Airway Transcriptome Reflects Selected Asthma‐Associated Gene Signatures in the Lower Airways

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Seven genes and two gene modules were consistently associated with asthma in both airway compartments in ARMS and were validated in ATLANTIS. The two modules reflected IL‐13 related inflammation and mast cell activity, respectively. Nasal gene signatures provide a non‐invasive proxy for selected bronchial asthma‐associated gene signatures. ARMS, Asthma

Beryllium mining and environmental protection: prospects for the creation of the Polissia Beryllium Reserve

open access: yesGeo&Bio
In the near future, beryllium mining may begin near and within the Polissia Nature Reserve, and there are grounds for establishing the Polissia Beryllium Reserve, following the example of the Chornobyl Radiation and Ecological Reserve.

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

The mechanism for production of beryllium fluoride from the product of ammonium fluoride processing of beryllium- containing raw material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The technique of fluorite-phenacite-bertrandite ores from Russian Ermakovskoe deposit processing by ammonium bifluoride is described. To determine the temperature mode and the thermal dissociation mechanism of ammonium tetrafluoroberyllate (the product ...

Duplicitous Remembrance: Confessing Self‐Deception with Augustine

open access: yesModern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract While self‐deception has long been a topic of interest in psychology and analytic philosophy—and increasingly in the academic study of theology and religion—direct engagement with Augustine on self‐deception remains underexplored in contemporary scholarship.

The search for the ultimate exercise countermeasure to preserve crew health and ensure mission success in long‐duration spaceflight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The current understanding of crew health maintenance is founded upon decades of physiological research conducted in terrestrial spaceflight analogues and in low Earth orbit, particularly on the International Space Station. However, as we progress towards the Lunar Gateway and interplanetary missions, it is imperative that the tools employed to
