Comparison of Dielectric Recovery After Arc Burning in SF6 Gas and Its Potential Alternatives
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) exhibits exceptional insulating properties, it is a potent greenhouse gas. Therefore, studying alternatives to SF6 is critical for developing environmentally friendly high‐voltage electrical equipment.

A Macroscopic Inception Criterion for the Upward Leaders of Natural Lightning [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2005 The increased use of electronic equipments in day-to-day life as well as the steady increase in the height of the structures have considerably increased the lightning threat. As a result, a suitable lightning protection system has become very essential.

Axial muscle‐fibre orientations in larval zebrafish
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 517-533, April 2025.In 4 days post‐fertilization zebrafish larvae, the fast axial muscle fibres follow helical trajectories that taper towards the tail. Adjacent muscle fibres form substantial angles relative to each other to accommodate this pattern. Using a novel semi‐automatic method, we quantified 3D fibre angles over the whole muscle volume.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract We used the LOw‐Frequency ARray (LOFAR) to identify two new types of lightning discharges occurring along the tracks of earlier positive leaders. The first is a kind of intracloud dart leader that we call a “backward dart” whose behavior appears counterintuitive given the positive polarity of the channel, as they are negative dart leaders that

Can ERA5 Be Used to Study Mesoscale Convective System Climatological Characteristics?
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 10, 28 May 2026.Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) produce more than half of tropical rainfall and are central to the global hydrologic cycle. As the climate warms, environments favorable for MCSs may become more common; however, limited observational records hamper understanding of how MCSs respond to variations and changes in their environments.
