Meter‐Scale Roughness of the Lunar Surface
Abstract Small‐scale surface roughness is a key indicator of local geological processes, yet it has not previously been mapped globally on the Moon. We present global meter‐scale surface roughness maps generated from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter pulses, which record information about surface undulations within the instrument's ∼5 m individual ...

Abstract Ultra‐low‐frequency waves in the magnetosphere often produce field line resonances with strong spatial gradients in wave amplitude. We analyze a form of drift resonance driven by these gradients near the resonant field line. This mechanism differs fundamentally from conventional gradient‐ and curvature‐driven drift resonance and predicts an ...

Dust Plumes Induced by a Time‐Varying Electron Beam
Abstract We present laboratory results to address dust charging and lofting on the Moon and other airless planetary bodies in response to time‐varying solar wind and ultraviolet (UV) exposure. In these experiments, dust is exposed to an electron beam that varies in beam energy between 40 and 260 eV as a function of time.

Meter‐Scale Lunar Dust‐Bed Charging and Local Apparent Dust Release Under Ultraviolet Irradiation
Abstract Vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) irradiation charges lunar regolith and may contribute to electrostatic dust mobilization, but meter‐scale laboratory constraints remain limited. We developed a meter‐scale deuterium‐lamp‐array VUV system that combines optical‐path superposition and stable array stitching to produce a controlled lunar‐relevant photon ...

This work presents an origami metamaterial that integrates a low‐melting‐point alloy skeleton into an elastomeric shell. It dissipates energy through the metal's plastic deformation and recovers through the solid–liquid phase transition of the alloy together with the hyperelasticity of the shell.

Potential Links Between Physiological and Perceptual Strain in High Heat Stress
ABSTRACT The physiological strain index (PhSI) is widely used to quantify thermoregulatory and cardiovascular strain during heat stress. However, direct physiological measurements may not always be feasible in occupational or athletic settings.
