Permissible Purchasing, Obligatory Abstention: The Strict Vegan Case against New Omnivorism

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 128-145, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent developments in consumer ethics have given rise to a new breed of animal protectionist: the new omnivore. These new wave animal protectionists claim that strict veganism is impermissible for the very reason that typically motivates strict veganism; that is, animal protectionism.

Comparison of the Performance of Fluorescent, Phosphorescent, and TADF Luminophores for Explosives Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
Both singlet and triplet populations of the TADF compound 4CzIPN are quenched upon interaction with dinitrotoluene by photoinduced electron transfer. However, their quenching rate is different, with the triplet excitons being more efficiently quenched due to a combination of their longer lifetime and larger population.

Scent Goes Digital: The Role of Insect Odorant Binding Proteins in Modern Technology

open access: yesBioFactors, Volume 52, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
This review delves into bioinspired olfactory biosensors, focusing on insect odorant binding proteins (OBPs) as core elements of hybrid bionic platforms for volatile compound detection. Highlighting the development of the biological electronic nose (BE‐NOSE), it examines current prototypes, outlines advantages over conventional methods, and explores ...

Millimeter-wave detection of landmines

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2013
Millimeter wave absorption relative to background soil can be used for detection landmines with little or no metal content. At these frequencies, soil and landmine absorb electromagnetic energy differently. Stepped frequency measurements from 20 GHz to 60 GHz were used to detect buried surrogate landmines in the soil.
