Peculiar Magnetosphere‐Atmosphere Coupling and Its Impacts Over the South American Magnetic Anomaly Region

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The auroral‐like sporadic E‐layer is typically observed at altitudes between 100 and 150 km within the South American Magnetic Anomaly region. However, the occurrence of an unusual layer event detected above this altitude range on 18 July 2017 has raised intriguing questions regarding the physical processes responsible for the substantial ...

Potential of quantitative X‐ray imaging from photon‐counting CT: A novel analysis based on effective atomic number and physical density

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Background Conventional CT assessment of lung lesions is based mainly on morphological features. CT values represent relative X‐ray attenuation that does not directly reflect tissue composition and/or physical density. Quantitative imaging using photon‐counting CT (PC‐CT) has the potential to provide quantitative parameters, such as effective ...

Introduction to TREx‐ATM V2.0: A Versatile Model of Auroral Transport and Its Effects in the Ionosphere

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Auroral transport models (ATMs) play an important role in quantitative studies of optical auroras, their driving mechanisms, and their effects on the ionosphere and thermosphere. TREx‐ATM was initially developed as the support model for the Transition Region Explorer (TREx) mission, and has gained increasing applications in the community in ...

Dual-Energy CT in Oncologic Imaging

open access: yesTomography
Dual-energy CT (DECT) is an innovative technology that is increasingly widespread in clinical practice. DECT allows for tissue characterization beyond that of conventional CT as imaging is performed using different energy spectra that can help ...

Comparison of Low‐Iodine Concentration Quantification Accuracy and Contrast‐To‐Noise Ratio Across Three Dual‐Energy CT Techniques: A Phantom Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 224-232, June 2026.
Using a clinical abdominal CT protocol, all three DECT techniques accurately quantified iodine. Rapid kV‐switching achieved the lowest detectable and quantifiable iodine concentrations, while dual‐layer DECT provided the highest normalised contrast‐to‐noise ratio on 40‐keV virtual monoenergetic images.

Advancing Heliophysics and Space Weather Modeling Through Open Science

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We present a community‐wide effort to develop a strategy and action plan to advance heliophysics and space weather modeling through open science. While open science has the potential to enhance the quality and pace of scientific discovery, its application to scientific modeling requires more careful consideration regarding open data and open ...

Refining imaging parameters for dual‐energy cone‐beam computed tomography in image‐guided radiation therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Purpose To develop a dose estimation method for virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) derived from sequential dual‐energy (DE) cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT), enhancing image quality while reducing imaging dose. The goal is to generate VMIs with lower imaging dose than standard CBCT for future clinical applications.
