Utopia Remembers: The Soviet Past in the Imagined Communist Future

open access: yesThe Russian Review, EarlyView.
Abstract After a twenty‐five‐year hiatus, the reappearance of utopian literature in 1957 prompted Soviet literary watchdogs to corral the subgenre into an ideologically‐acceptable mold. A key requirement was for future generations to be depicted as reverently commemorating the past.

Hierarchical Cosmological Constraints through a Strong-lensing Distance Ratio

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Strong gravitational lensing provides an independent and powerful probe of cosmic expansion by directly linking observables to cosmological distances.

Low‐dose X‐ray radiation induces an adaptive response: A potential countermeasure to galactic cosmic radiation exposure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space exploration involves many dangers including galactic cosmic radiation (GCR). This class of radiation includes high‐energy protons and heavy ionizing ions. NASA has defined GCR as a carcinogenic risk for long‐duration space missions. To date, no clear strategy has been developed to counter chronic GCR exposure.

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Detection of Accretion Shelves Out to the Virial Radius of a Low-mass Galaxy with JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the serendipitous discovery of an extended stellar halo surrounding the low-mass galaxy Ark 227 ( M _* = 5 × 10 ^9 M _⊙ ; d = 35 Mpc) in deep JWST NIRCam imaging from the Blue Jay Survey.

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Bridging Theory and Practice: Digital Twin Simulation of a Heat Exchanger in Laboratories for Engineering Students

open access: yesComputer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 34, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Digital twins serve as virtual replicas of physical systems. They can be used as a tool for engineering education by revealing the underlying principles behind unit operations. The project aimed to integrate digital twins into university engineering lab courses, complementing traditional methods by bridging the gap between experimentation and ...

Unveiling the Functional Role of KIF21B in Microglia Inflammatory Response

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Microglia express KIF21B in both sexes. KIF21B binds to microglia cytoskeleton; inflammation alters such interaction promoting a phagocytic state in females. In male microglia KIF21B modulates migration. ABSTRACT Microglia are brain immune cells that maintain homeostasis and respond to injury, changing cell morphology to drive inflammation, migration ...

SN 2024aecx: A Fast-evolving Type IIb Supernova with a Prominent Shock-cooling Peak

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
SN 2024aecx is a nearby (∼11 Mpc) Type IIb SN discovered within ∼1 day after explosion. In this paper we report high-cadence photometric (typically 0.5 ∼ 1 day) and spectroscopic follow-up observations, conducted from as early as 0.27 day post discovery ...
