Delivery of nano‐formulated drugs to solid tumours is selectively increased by co‐application of the vascular disrupting agent CA4P

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 16, Page 4663-4674, August 2026.
Background and purpose Nano‐formulated chemotherapeutics prolong systemic availability of drugs and can reduce systemic toxicity, but their accumulation in solid tumours is often limited and unpredictable. Broadly applicable strategies to selectively enhance tumour delivery are lacking.

Correlated Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) and Radar Observations of the Initial Stages of Florida Triggered Lightning Discharges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We characterize the geometrical and electrical characteristics of the initial stages of nine Florida triggered lightning discharges using a Lightning Mapping Array (LMA), a C-band SMART radar, and measured channel-base currents.

Bank Competition Amid Digital Disruption: Implications for Financial Inclusion

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1951-2004, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We examine how digital disruption affects bank competition using the staggered rollout of 3G mobile networks. 3G expansion increased mobile banking adoption among tech‐savvy households, reducing branch networks—especially in younger counties.

What Drives Precipitation Intensification During Zonal Atmospheric Rivers Landfalling in the Extratropical Andes?

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract The extratropical Andes, a hotspot for landfalling atmospheric rivers (ARs), are prone to extreme precipitation and related hydrological hazards, including floods and landslides. An improved understanding of the drivers of precipitation intensification during AR landfall is critical for hazard preparedness. Focusing on 50 zonally elongated ARs

Sprites Observed by ASIM: First Imaging Data Set and Temporal UV Emission Patterns

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract We present the first data set analysis of 41 imaging‐confirmed sprite events detected by the ASIM‐MMIA instrument. They were visible in the 337 nm camera images from an initial list of 102 candidates identified by the ultraviolet (UV 180–230 nm) photometer.

Study on Transient Overvoltage and Surge Arrester Electrical Stresses in Offshore Wind Farms Under Multiple Lightning Strokes

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Lightning strikes are a major cause of wind turbine (WT) damage, with approximately 80% of cloud-to-ground lightning strikes exhibiting a multi-stroke characteristic. Therefore, studying the transient overvoltages induced by multiple lightning strokes is
