Testing the Weak Cosmic Censorship Conjecture via Test Particle–Induced Overcharging/Overspinning of Kerr–Newman–Modified Gravity Black Hole

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
We examine the weak cosmic censorship conjecture (WCCC) violation by throwing a charged and rotating test particle into a Kerr–Newman–modified gravity black hole (KN–MOG BH). The result depends on several factors, such as the relative sign of the particle’s charge and its direction of rotation with respect to black hole (BH).

Revisiting the A L Lensing Anomaly in Planck 2018 Temperature Data

The Astrophysical Journal
We revisit the lensing anomaly in the Planck 2018 temperature (TT) data and examine its robustness to frequency selection and additional sky masking. Our main findings are as follows.

Stratosphere‐Troposphere Exchange of Water Vapor Based on Observations and Reanalyses

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract This study provides the first estimates of the global stratosphere‐troposphere exchange (STE) of water vapor (H2O) using the lowermost stratosphere mass budget approach. Observationally derived H2O fluxes across the isentropic surface fitted to the tropical tropopause are −1.16 ± 0.20 Pg/yr in the Northern Hemisphere extratropics, −0.94 ± 0.18

Cosmic necklaces in string theory and field theory [PDF]

, 2010
PhDIn this thesis we investigate astrophysical phenomena which arise in models with compact extra dimensions, focussing on the cosmological consequences of strings which wrap cycles in the internal space. Embedding our strings in the Klebanov-Strassler

The Impact of Population III.1 Flash Reionization for Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization and Thomson Scattering Optical Depth

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The Population III.1 theory for supermassive black hole (SMBH) formation predicts a very early ( z  ∼ 20–25) transient phase, the “Pop III.1 Flash,” of cosmic reionization powered by supermassive stars that are SMBH progenitors. The Universe then quickly

An Accelerated Discrete Ordinate Method (ADOM) Developed for Scalar Radiative Transfer by Merging Adjacent Clear‐Sky Atmospheric Layers: Forward and Jacobians Derivation

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract In this study, an Accelerated Discrete Ordinate Method (ADOM) is proposed to enhance the computational efficiency of multi‐layer radiative transfer (RT) simulations while maintaining a high accuracy. ADOM applies the Discrete Ordinate Method (DOM) only in scattering layers, while the radiances for the adjacent clear‐sky layers are merged and ...

James Buttle Review: Dynamic Water Storage Shapes Critical Zone Function in Snow‐Dominated Mountain Watersheds

Hydrological Processes, Volume 39, Issue 11, November 2025.
Dynamic storage in snow‐dominated mountain systems includes snowpacks, plant accessible water (PAW), groundwater and surface. We summarise recent advances in measuring and modelling these dynamic stores. Our review highlights spatial heterogeneity and time evolution of capacity and filling/depletion of these stores and discusses implications for ...

The Cosmic Microwave Background Optical Depth Constrains the Duration of Reionization

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recently, it was pointed out that invoking a large value of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) optical depth, τ _CMB  = 0.09, could help resolve tensions between Dark Energy Survey Instrument DR2 baryon acoustic oscillation data and the CMB.

Progress in fiber‐shaped zinc batteries: From structure, manufacturing, optimization to application

InfoMat, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
In this review, four aspects of fiber‐shaped zinc batteries (FZBs) are systematically summarized: structure, manufacturing, optimization, and application. The structure of FZBs is first presented, encompassing common electrodes, electrolytes, current collectors, encapsulating materials, and various electrode assembly architectures.
