Quantitative micro‐XRF combined with X‐ray imaging reveals correlations between Zn concentration and dentin tubule porosity across entire teeth

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
The combination of calibrated micro‐CT and quantitative micro‐XRF measurement facilitates the correlation of density and composition in the 3D macro‐structure of teeth. Zn concentration in dentin increases by a factor of 10 toward the pulp. Incidentally, the overall density decreases, showing an association between Zn and the dentin tissue porosity ...

Fatal lightning strikes in Ireland from newspaper records 1900–2024

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
This study presents a chronology of fatal lightning strikes in Ireland (1900–2024) derived from digitised newspaper archives. Analysis provides insights into the seasonality, location, victim activity and synoptic conditions (from Lamb weather types) of 94 fatal events causing 113 deaths.

Trace Element Analysis in Human Neuroblastoma Cell Spheroids Supplemented With ZnCl2 by Micro‐XRF

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood, is responsible for ~10% of pediatric cancer deaths and has high potential for metastasis. Metals are extremely important in biological processes, and changes in their levels have been correlated with the development of cancerous growth.

A buoyant tornado-probe concept incorporating an inverted lifting device [PDF]

open access: yes
Addition of an inverted lifting device to a simple balloon probe is shown to make possible low-altitude entry to tornado cores with easier launch conditions than for the simple balloon probe.

Integration of Micro‐CT and XRF Mapping for Multimodal 3D Analysis of Polychrome Wooden Artifacts

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, computer applications have become crucial to archeological research. Since the 1990s, the focus has transitioned from data management tools to the development of virtual models. Recently, digital documentation of cultural heritage has gained considerable focus, with 3D modeling of objects.

Rare Lightning and Convection Characteristics During Two Successive Tornadoes in Southern China

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systematic investigations into lightning characteristics of tornado storms in China remain scarce. This study comprehensively analyses rare lightning behaviour and overshooting top characteristics for two successive tornadoes during a long‐lived supercell in southern China on 27 April 2024.

The Unintended Consequences of German Deterrence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germany's evolving deterrence posture boils down to continued participation in NATO nuclear sharing and an ambitious conventional rearmament program. Due to its non‐nuclear status and a result of decades of underinvestment, Germany prioritizes modern conventional weapons.
