A new activity index for comets

open access: yes, 1991
An activity index, AI, is derived from observational data to measure the increase of activity in magnitudes for comets when brightest near perihelion as compared to their inactive reflective brightness at great solar distances.

A comparative study on confirmation of endotracheal tube placement in patients undergoing intubation in emergency department with ultrasonography, clinical methods, and capnography

open access: yesHong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 33, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Background and Objective Endotracheal intubation is a lifesaving procedure in critically ill patients. This study compared ultrasonography with 5‐point auscultation and the gold standard, quantitative waveform capnography, for confirming tube placement.

Redox Regulation and Oxidative Stress in Health and Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targeting

open access: yesMedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Reactive species serve crucial roles which are tightly regulated in both physiological as well as disease states. At physiological levels, these species are integral to redox signaling, while uncontrolled redox promotes disease pathology. This review examines the dysregulation of these processes.

Multilayer Cellulose Acetate–Viscose Films for Bio‐Based, Bio‐Degradable Packaging Applications

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 685-695, June 2026.
Cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose foils stick together comprehensively after mild cellulose sodium hydroxide treatment and heated compression. For combined foils, water barrier properties correlate with CA thickness. Oxygen permeation suffers due to the sodium hydroxide pre‐treatment induced foil changes. The composite represents a biodegradable and

Influence of Solar Sails on Magnetic Field Measurements in Space Plasmas

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Solar sail technology is ready to be deployed in a satellite mission carrying a science‐grade magnetometer. In preparation for such a mission, it is essential to characterize the interactions between the sail and the ambient plasma that could affect the magnetometer readings.

Dormant Comets in the Near-Earth Asteroid Population

open access: yes, 2015
The population of near-Earth objects comprises active comets and asteroids, covering a wide range of dynamical parameters and physical properties. Dormant (or extinct) comets, masquerading as asteroids, have long been suspected of supplementing the near ...

Impact and Crystallization Modeling of the Sudbury Basin and Its Implications for a Hadean Crust

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The 1.85 Ga Sudbury Structure hosts Earth's largest and best‐preserved impact‐induced melt sheet, the Sudbury Igneous Complex (SIC), which crystallized into distinct noritic, gabbroic, and granophyric layers. We conduct impact simulations with iSALE‐2D and crystallization modeling using alphaMELTS 2 to track the formation and evolution of the ...

Modeling and Analysis of Main-belt Asteroidal Dust Flux and Velocity Distribution at Inner Planets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Interplanetary dust in the inner solar system originates from multiple sources, including short-period comets and main-belt asteroids. In this work, we focus specifically on the dynamical evolution of asteroid-derived dust using N -body simulations that ...
