Laws and Reasons Why

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 354-365, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Laws play some role in explanations: at the very least, they somehow connect what is explained, or the explanandum, to what explains, or the explanans. Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...

What Drives Negative KDP Above the Melting Layer? The Hidden Role of Secondary Ice Production

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 22, 28 November 2026.
Abstract Secondary ice production (SIP) remains a major uncertainty in understanding deep convection because its rates and controlling conditions are poorly constrained. Using the Tracking Aerosol Convection Interactions Experiment (TRACER) C‐band and operational S‐band radar observations, Houston Lightning Mapping Array (HLMA) lightning data, and ...

Observation of Return‐Stroke Current Wave Speed in a Long Channel Formed by Preceding Upward Connecting Leader

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Direct measurements of return‐stroke current propagation speed inside lightning channels remain extremely challenging, so the propagation speed of return‐stroke luminosity is widely used as a proxy. We present the first direct measurement of return‐stroke current propagation speed along a natural lightning channel, using synchronized lightning

Plasmonic Lightning‐Rod Effect

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 21, 12 November 2026.
How strongly does local curvature control plasmonic field enhancement? By isolating curvature effects in carefully designed plasmonic antennas, the plasmonic lightning‐rod effect is quantitatively established. An effective radius of curvature, smaller than the geometric radius, emerges from the induced charge distribution, providing a new framework for

Evaluating the Clinical and Immune Responses to Spotted Fever Rickettsioses in the Guinea Pig‐Tick‐Rickettsia System

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract The guinea pig was the original animal model developed to investigate spotted fever rickettsiosis (SFR), a tick‐borne disease caused by pathogens in the spotted fever group (SFGR) of rickettsia. This model persists because guinea pigs are highly susceptible to tick transmission of SFR agents and can recapitulate SFR in humans through clinical ...
