Magnetic Signature of the Corona Lava Tube (Lanzarote, Canary Islands), a Lunar and Martian Planetary Analog

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Lava tubes and caves are key exploration targets on the Moon and Mars due to their potential to serve as natural infrastructure for future crewed missions. However, identifying these structures efficiently and reliably remains a major challenge.

Dark-matter search with CRESST

open access: yesCzechoslovak Journal of Physics, 2006
The CRESST experiment is looking for non-baryonic particle dark matter via nuclear scattering in CaWO4. The simultaneous measurement of the heat and the scintillation light generated by an event in a CaWO4 single crystal is used to discriminate between electron and nuclear recoils thanks to their different light output.

Electron/gamma and alpha backgrounds in CRESST-II Phase 2

open access: yes, 2014
The experiment CRESST-II aims at the detection of dark matter with scintillating CaWO4 crystals operated as cryogenic detectors. Recent results on spin-independent WIMP-nucleon scattering from the CRESST-II Phase 2 allowed to probe a new region of ...

Testing the Limits of Provenance Analysis From Basaltic Fluvial Sediment Near Sandvatn, Iceland, as a Mars Analog

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Detrital sediments that accumulate downstream and are preserved in sedimentary rocks can allow characterization of geologic formations that are inaccessible for spatial or temporal reasons. However, mixing, sorting, and alteration of sediment during transport may complicate reconstruction of protolith characteristics.

A detector module with highly efficient surface-alpha event rejection operated in CRESST-II Phase 2

open access: yes, 2014
The cryogenic dark matter experiment CRESST-II aims at the direct detection of WIMPs via elastic scattering off nuclei in scintillating CaWO4 crystals. We present a new, highly improved, detector design installed in the current run of CRESST-II Phase 2 ...

Sensemaking of Process Data from Evaluation Studies of Educational Games: An Application of Cross‐Classified Item Response Theory Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Educational Measurement, Volume 63, Issue 1, Spring 2026.
Abstract Process information collected from educational games can illuminate how students approach interactive tasks, complementing assessment outcomes routinely examined in evaluation studies. However, the two sources of information are historically analyzed and interpreted separately, and diagnostic process information is often underused.

A likelihood framework for cryogenic scintillating calorimeters used in the CRESST dark matter search

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
Cryogenic scintillating calorimeters are ultra- sensitive particle detectors for rare event searches, particularly for the search for dark matter and the measurement of neutrino properties.

Results on MeV-scale dark matter from a gram-scale cryogenic calorimeter operated above ground

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
Models for light dark matter particles with masses below 1 GeV/c $$^2$$ 2 are a natural and well-motivated alternative to so-far unobserved weakly interacting massive particles.

Radiation Transport Through the Martian Atmosphere as a Function of the Zenith Angle

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The topographic influence of the radiation environment on the Martian surface radiation is crucial for future human exploration. Topographic maps help assess radiation flux variations, aiding in hazard evaluation. Creating a global radiation map requires accounting for seasonally varying atmospheric density, heliospheric modulation, and ...
