Differential effects of vagus nerve stimulation paradigms guide clinical development for Parkinson’s disease

Brain Stimulation, 2020
Background: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) modifies brain rhythms in the locus coeruleus (LC) via the solitary nucleus. Degeneration of the LC in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an early catalyst of the spreading neurodegenerative process, suggesting that ...

Performance of windshear/microburst detection algorithms using numerical weather prediction model data for selected tropical cyclone cases

Atmospheric Science Letters, 2023
Three windshear/microburst detection algorithms are used operationally at the Hong Kong International Airport. Their performance is studied in the present article by assuming the availability of the complete set of meteorological data from numerical ...

DART: A Dual Aperture Relativistic Electron Telescope for Smallsats

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The precipitation of particles into the Earth's atmosphere is a primary loss mechanism of the radiation belt for which many unknowns remain. With the growing number of space mission concepts to solve them, less expensive alternatives such as CubeSats are being used.

Bursty Precipitation of Relativistic Electrons Unveiled by CIRBE/REPTile‐2 Measurements and Their Physical Implications

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Energetic electron precipitation plays a pivotal role in shaping Earth's radiation belt dynamics and drives significant physical and chemical changes in the upper atmosphere. However, the detailed mechanisms governing the loss of relativistic electrons have remained unclear, largely due to the limited energy coverage and coarse resolution of ...

Microburst precipitation phenomena.

Journal of geomagnetism and geoelectricity, 1978
Auroral zone microburst electron precipitation is reviewed. It can be shown from existing data that microbursts represent a major precipitation form on the dayside magnetosphere. Balloon X-ray data indicate that microbursts are periodic and they are small-scaled. Rocket and sattellite data indicate that microbursts may consist of substructures and that

Test Particle Simulations of Dual‐Component Microbursts Observed by BARREL: Effects of Atmospheric Backscattering and Chorus Elements

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Electron microbursts are among the most important loss mechanisms for energetic electrons in the Earth's radiation belts and are often driven by wave‐particle interactions with discrete chorus wave elements. Observations from the Balloon Array for Radiation‐belt Relativistic Electron Losses (BARREL) mission have revealed microburst events with
