Electrospun fibrous sorbents for the removal of uranium and americium from aqueous media

open access: yesPolymer International, Volume 75, Issue 12, Page 1327-1336, December 2026.
Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers with tertiary amino functionalities are evaluated as adsorbents for U‐232 and Am‐241 in both simplified and complex (seawater) water matrices, highlighting their ability for efficient actinide removal. Abstract Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers containing tertiary amino functionalities were ...

“I Want to Live in the Metro Neighborhood”: Gentrification, Food Access, and Transitional Neighborhood Identity in Toronto

open access: yesCity &Society, Volume 38, Issue 3, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This article builds on scholarship about gentrifying foodscapes by exploring public debates around a grocery store that opened in the Junction Triangle, a predominately white, mixed income neighborhood in Toronto, Canada. Shortly after the completion of a new condominium development, Metro Inc. decided to open their discount chain, Food Basics,

Vertical Velocity Deduced From Ice Change in MesoNHforC2OMODO RASTA‐km, a Data Set of Deep Convection Simulations Assessed Against Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 22, 28 November 2026.
Abstract Measuring vertical velocity is crucial for improving our understanding of deep convection. The Convective Core Observations through MicrOwave Derivatives in the trOpics (C2OMODO) mission aims to retrieve vertical velocity using ice‐sensitive microwave measurements acquired at two closely spaced time intervals.

Geostationary Lightning Mapper for GOES-R

open access: yes, 2007
The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) is a single channel, near-IR optical detector, used to detect, locate and measure total lightning activity over the full-disk as part of a 3-axis stabilized, geostationary weather satellite system.

Unexpected Morphology and Dynamics of Lightning Continuing‐Current Channel as Seen in UV

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract Using a high‐speed imaging system operating in UV (290–370 nm) range at the Lightning Observatory in Gainesville (LOG), Florida, we observed, for the first time, what appeared to be lightning channel fragmentation starting <1 ms after the return‐stroke onset.

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

Treatment plan quality comparison between ZAP‐Axon® Krylov optimizer and Leksell Gamma Knife® Lightning optimizer for brain metastasis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Purpose This study compares stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatment plan quality between the recently launched ZAP‐Axon® Krylov optimizer and the Leksell Gamma Knife® (LGK) Lightning optimizer for brain metastasis (BM). Methods Thirty (n = 30) patients who were previously treated with LGK SRS or fractionated SRS were selected and divided ...
