Intersex Across the Interstellar: The Andromeda Constellation in Medieval and Early Modern Astronomical and Astrological Treatises

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the iconography of the Andromeda constellation as an intersex figure within medieval and early modern astrological traditions. It focuses on the origins of this imagery in the thirteenth‐century astrological writings of Scot and its reappearance nearly three centuries later in Ratdolt's illustrated 1482 edition of Hyginus'

Quantifying Heteromer Partitioning Reveals Inflammation‐Dependent Redistribution of Microglial Adenosine A2A and Cannabinoid CB2 Receptors

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Proinflammatory activation reorganizes microglial A2A and CB2 receptors, promoting their incorporation into stable heteromers and blocking agonist‐induced redistribution. The results reveal those heteromers as potential therapeutic targets in inflammatory contexts.

Collisionless Shocks: Contemporary State After Three Quarters of a Century of Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The collisionless shock research started in the late 1950s. Since then, plenty of data have been accumulated due to the large number of missions in the heliosphere, providing in situ measurements of the fields and particles. The quality of these measurements has vastly improved, especially in the last two decades.

Black Fugitivity in the Sporting Workplace: The Story of Eniola Aluko

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1914-1926, September 2026.

I demonstrate how she traversed a racist and anti‐Black sporting workplace—where she was unfairly demonized

Bad Practices: Unintended Consequences of Practice‐Based Theories of Reference

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 249-261, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Practice theories are a genus of causal theories of reference. They claim that the semantic referent of an utterance of a name is determined by features of a practice of using that name to speaker‐refer to, or coordinate actions around, a certain object.

Dress for success: climate pressures predict fur insulation and body size in natural and reintroduced populations of a threatened marsupial

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Phenotypic variation in functional traits underpins responses to environmental gradients, influencing thermoregulation, energy balance, and long‐term persistence under climate extremes. Climate change is altering these gradients globally, yet in species that have already disappeared from much of their range, adaptive phenotypes may have also been lost,

The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, Volume 94, Issue 2, Page 464-483, August 2026.
Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.
