ROBAST: Development of a ROOT-Based Ray-Tracing Library for Cosmic-Ray Telescopes and its Applications in the Cherenkov Telescope Array

open access: yes, 2015
We have developed a non-sequential ray-tracing simulation library, ROOT-based simulator for ray tracing (ROBAST), which is aimed to be widely used in optical simulations of cosmic-ray (CR) and gamma-ray telescopes.

Understanding Impact of Anti‐Obesity Medications on Skeletal Muscle Mass Change Is Confounded by Measurement Methods

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anti‐obesity medications promote greater degrees of weight loss than lifestyle interventions alone. There is an important need to understand whether loss of skeletal muscle during pharmacologically induced weight loss is clinically significant due to its essential role in health and disease.

A Highly Conserved SNARE‐Associated Protein Enhances Plant Immunity by Regulating Vesicle Trafficking

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The plant endomembrane system and vesicle trafficking are central to plant immunity, mediating the targeted delivery and recycling of defence molecules during pathogen attack. Here, we investigated the functional role of soybean Vacuole Membrane Protein 1 (GmVMP1) in mediating resistance against soybean cyst nematode (SCN, Heterodera glycines).

Investigating Land Surface Temperature (LST) Change Using the LST Change Detection Technique (Gomishan District, Iran)

open access: yes, 2018
Monitoring variations in the spectral reflectance of thermal bands of Landsat data provide land surface temperature information of earth’s surface features. This research tried to examine the variations of Land surface temperature (LST) from 1987 to 2017 at the Gomishan district and its soundings in Iran.

Characterization of LST Z Plane Signals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) used to detect muons in the BaBar detector are losing efficiency and are being replaced by Limited Streamer Tubes. Z planes are a component of the detector that gathers detects muons. It is desired to know how Z signals vary from across the plane. Using an Oscilloscope and Scintillator triggers, the output signals of

Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...

Results from computer program for analyzing scattered light suppression systems for large space telescope [PDF]

open access: yes
A computer program was developed which has the ability to analyze the performance of most light suppression systems so as to predict the amount of scattered light which will reach the image plane for various conditions of unwanted light input from the ...

Advancements and limitations of image‐enhanced endoscopy in colorectal lesion diagnosis and treatment selection: A narrative review

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, highlighting the need for early detection and accurate lesion characterization. Traditional white‐light imaging has limitations in detecting lesions, particularly those with flat morphology or minimal color contrast with the surrounding mucosa.
