Hitchhiker's Guide to the Swampland: The Cosmologist's Handbook to the String‐Theoretical Swampland Programme

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

On the relative frequency of flocculent and grand design spiral structures in barred galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1989
The bars in late-type spiral galaxies (SBbc to SBm and SABbc to SABm) show little correlation with grand design spiral structure, unlike the bars in early-type galaxies. This is further evidence for two different types of bars in the SB morphological class, and two different types of ovals in the SAB class.

Substituent‐Based Modulation of Self‐Assembly and Immunogenicity of Amphipathic Peptides

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 18, 27 March 2026.
This study systematically investigates how positional and subtle changes, such as substituents on the phenyl ring attached to short amphipathic peptides, influence their self‐assembly, fibril morphology, and immunogenic responses. ABSTRACT Self‐assembled peptide‐based biomaterials provide versatile platforms for biomedical uses, featuring customizable ...

Grand Design vs. Multi-Armed Spiral Galaxies: Dependence on Galaxy Structure

open access: yes
We developed an algorithm to use Galaxy Zoo 3D spiral arm masks produced by citizen scientist volunteers to semi-automatically classify spiral galaxies as either multi-armed or grand design spirals. Our final sample consists of 299 multi-armed and 245 grand design galaxies.

Clinical Application of Peripheral Blood Biomarkers for Solid Tumors

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Peripheral blood biomarkers provide a minimally invasive, dynamic, and potentially more accurate means to obtain a comprehensive tumor profile. Technologies for detecting them are advancing, and with the help of artificial intelligence, they are being used more and more often for cancer diagnosis, prognostic assessment, and therapeutic monitoring ...

On the chains of star complexes and superclouds in spiral arms

open access: yes, 2010
The relation is studied between occurrence of a regular chain of star complexes and superclouds in a spiral arm, and other properties of the latter. A regular string of star complexes is located in the north-western arm of M31; they have about the same ...

Facile Bottom‐Up Assembly of Photonic Micropatterns via Surface‐Guided Colloidal Crystallization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
High‐resolution photonic micropatterns with vivid structural colors are fabricated through bottom‐up assembly, guided by surface‐dependent regioselective heterogeneous nucleation and crystal growth of colloidal particles. Full‐spectrum color tunability is achieved by controlling particle size and interparticle attraction, while in situ color mixing is ...

Analyzing the cosmic architecture in the vicinity of Grand-design and Flocculent spiral galaxies with Local Geometric Index

open access: yes, 2023
We explore the environment of 351 grand-design and 541 flocculent spiral galaxies recently identified employing convolutional neural networks from the $17^{th}$ data release of Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We introduce a novel estimator called the Local Geometric Index to quantify the morphology of the local environment of these 892 spirals.

Reduced Geomagnetic Shielding During the Laschamps Excursion and Its Impact on Cosmic‐Ray‐Induced Atmospheric Radiation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Laschamps geomagnetic excursion (≈41,000 years BP) was a period of significant weakening and incomplete reversal of the Earth's magnetic field. The weakening substantially reduced geomagnetic shielding against cosmic rays (CRs), which contribute to phenomena at Earth, such as cosmogenic isotope production, and atmospheric ionisation and ...

Using synthetic emission maps to constrain the structure of the Milky Way

open access: yes, 2013
We present the current standing of an investigation into the structure of the Milky Way. We use smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to simulate the ISM gas in the Milky Way under the effect of a number of different gravitational potentials representing
