High‐Resolution Snowstorm Measurements and Retrievals Using Cross‐Platform Multi‐Frequency and Polarimetric Radars

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Many studies have performed microphysical retrievals using radars of different frequencies, platforms, and methodologies. However, little is known about the consistency of retrievals derived from different radar platforms (i.e., airborne or spaceborne vs.

Improved Threat Detection in Walk-Through Security Scanning Using an Optimized Polarimetric Target Decomposition Method

IEEE Journal of Microwaves, 2023
Reliable and convenient walk-through security scanning, which doesn't separate people or impede their movement, is an extremely challenging task. In this paper, a novel approach for a security check with an overhead observation and a polarimetric ...

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Chiral Urea and Thiourea Derivatives as Multitarget‐Directed Anti‐Alzheimer Agents

Drug Development Research, Volume 87, Issue 5, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A series of novel chiral urea and thiourea compounds were designed as multitarget‐directed ligands for Alzheimer's disease and evaluated against hAChE, hBChE, and hMAO‐B, with exploratory assessment of HSD10. These chiral compounds were synthesized and fully characterized, and their enantiopurity was confirmed via HPLC.

Characterization of Mass Wasting Events on Lunar Maria Using Mini‐RF Radar Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Evidence of mass wasting has been observed on the Moon since at least the Apollo era. Surface features indicative of mass wasting processes are traditionally characterized geomorphologically using visible images. In this study, we aim to better understand mass wasting features via their radar properties, which can provide insights into the ...

Preservation of Historically and Scientifically Important Geospatial Data From Venus

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract A large volume of scientifically and historically important data from the early exploration of Venus is not widely available to researchers. Our work is focused on ameliorating this problem with the archival of geospatial data including radar, topography, and radiometry.
