The Grammatical Structure of Scientific Revolutions

open access: yesTheoria, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, I examine the structural parallels between Thomas Kuhn's philosophy of science and Ludwig Wittgenstein's later thought, focusing on the idea of grammatical frameworks. My central claim is that Kuhn's concept of paradigm and its later, more language‐centred forms in his philosophy can be read as a Wittgensteinian grammatical ...

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

ALERA‐V Version 1.0: An Objective Analysis Dataset of the Venus Atmosphere

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
Using observations from the Venus orbiter Akatsuki, we present the first objective analysis dataset of the Venus atmosphere. ALERA‐V, generated with the ALEDAS‐V system using the LETKF, is expected to support studies of atmospheric dynamics and the planning of future satellite missions.

Development and Diagnostic Potential of a Handheld Probe Polarization‐Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography in Oral Mucosa Imaging

open access: yesInternational Journal of Imaging Systems and Technology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
Handheld Probe Polarization‐Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography for Oral Screening. ABSTRACT Early detection of oral cancer through routine screening is important. Therefore, developing noninvasive, good‐resolution, and cost‐effective screening tools that provide real‐time in vivo oral health imaging is paramount.

How Long Is the Coast of Quantum Chemistry? Or, How to Evaluate Density Functional Theory as a Scientific Revolution

open access: yesNatural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 3, July 2026.
Within quantum chemistry, density functional theory (DFT) is a revolution. This serves as an example of a multitude of other scientific events, supporting the idea that revolutions are always large, if observed with the appropriate magnification. ABSTRACT Distinguishing scientific revolutions from normal science is a subjective, conflicting matter ...

Mercury's Eccentric Orbit as a Driver of Significant “Seasonal” Change in Upstream Solar Wind Forcing

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Mercury experiences the most intense and variable solar wind (SW) conditions in the solar system due to its close, eccentric orbit about the Sun. In addition to variation driven by coronal source and solar cycle, the SW arriving at Mercury varies periodically as the planet's heliocentric distance changes by over 50% per orbit.

Revealing the Formation of the <20 MeV Inner Proton Radiation Belt at L ∼ 2 During the 10–11 May 2024 Superstorm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract A new proton radiation belt was identified during the geomagnetic superstorm of 10–11 May 2024. To investigate its origin, we use an MHD‐test particle simulation to model solar energetic proton (SEP) trapping and the evolution of the initial trapped proton population during the storm.
