Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.Abstract Background Proton arc therapy (PAT) is an emerging delivery modality that delivers proton beams through continuous gantry rotation combined with spot scanning. Compared with intensity‐modulated proton therapy (IMPT), PAT improves target conformity and spares organs at risk. However, the dynamic multi‐angle irradiation pattern may alter the low‐

Primariness of the spaces $\ell_p(C(K))$ for $1 \leq p \leq \infty$
We prove that the spaces $\ell_p(C(α))$ and $\ell_p(C[0,1])$ have the uniform primary factorisation property whenever $α$ is an ordinal and ...

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.Hydrogen embrittlement proceeds through three distinct mechanisms: localized plasticity, decohesion, and hydride formation, each demanding different experimental evidence across atomic to macroscopic scales. This review maps experimental techniques to their operative mechanism and proposes a multiscale, mechanism‐informed framework linking technique ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.This paper introduces a resource‐aware Contrastive Scattering Meta‐Learning (CSML) framework for acoustic anomaly detection. By leveraging training‐free wavelet scattering and metric‐based meta‐learning, the model achieves competitive performance with only 50 K learnable parameters—a 98% reduction compared to state‐of‐the‐art frameworks—enabling ...

Mean Excitation Energies of all ionization stages of all atoms with 1 $\leq$ Z $\leq$ 86
The presented work provides values of Mean Excitation Energy (MEE) for all atoms and their ions with atomic numbers 1 $\leq$ Z $\leq$ 86. To fill in the gaps in the available data, we propose an approximate atomic model for ions of high-Z elements, that ...

Programmable Flocks: Hierarchical Swarm Control via Dynamic Parameter Injection
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.We present a method for the control of robot swarms which allows the shaping and the translation of patterns of simple robots (“smart particles”), using two types of devices. These two types represent a hierarchy: a larger group of simple, oblivious robots (which we call the workers) that is governed by simple local attraction forces and a smaller ...
