Investigating the Impact of Virtual Reality Panoramas on Children's Water Safety Knowledge and Interest and Enjoyment

open access: yesJournal of Computer Assisted Learning, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Unintentional drowning is a leading cause of injury and death among children worldwide, and inadequate water safety education is a significant contributing factor. Innovative technologies such as virtual reality [VR] have the potential to teach children about safety and reduce the risk of accidental injury.

Mass and Metal Flows in Isolated IllustrisTNG Halos

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) is a reservoir of metals and star-forming fuel. Most baryons in the Universe are in the CGM or the intergalactic medium (IGM). The baryon cycle—how mass and metals reach the CGM from the inner regions of the galaxy and how

A Dialogue on Revolutions and Revolutionaries in Science: A Perspective From Quantum Mechanics

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We discuss the notions of scientific revolutions and revolutionaries in the context of the Relativity Revolution and of the First, Second, and Third Quantum Revolutions. We conclude that at the core of the question of what qualifies as a revolution and revolutionary is an assessment of the gradients of knowledge accumulation over time, both at

A Physically Motivated Framework to Compare the Merger Timescales of Isolated Low- and High-mass Galaxy Pairs Across Cosmic Time

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The merger timescales of isolated low-mass pairs (10 ^8 < M _* < 5 × 10 ^9 M _⊙ ) on cosmologically motivated orbits have not yet been studied in detail, though isolated high-mass pairs (5 × 10 ^9 < M _* < 10 ^11 M _⊙ ) have been studied extensively.

Developmental Change in Structure Learning Reflects a Shift From Recency‐Based to Relational Prediction

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Children are adept statistical learners, capable of parsing streams of structured input into meaningful units, but the cognitive processes they engage during learning may differ from those of adults. To date, however, it is unclear how learners of different ages predict upcoming experience when navigating environments with complex structure ...

Joint lensing–dynamics constraint on the elliptical galaxy mass profile from the largest galaxy–galaxy lens sample [PDF]

open access: yes
From various lensing and non-lensing observations, the total density profile in elliptical galaxies is well approximated by a power law mass distribution.

Semianalytic Orbits: A Practical Implementation of Lynden-Bell’s Planar Orbits and Extension to Vertical Oscillations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a practical implementation of the perturbation theory derived by Lynden-Bell for describing, to arbitrary precision, the orbit of a particle in an arbitrary spherically symmetric potential.

Automation and Augmentation in Theological Perspective

open access: yesModern Theology, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 612-628, July 2026.
Abstract AI enables forms of automation that threaten unemployment and deskilling, eliminating important opportunities for the development of virtue. The concomitant loss of virtue and meaningful employment makes it a theological problem from the perspective of Catholic social teaching and theological anthropology.
