Spectroscopic techniques in the investigation of extraordinary medieval Polish coins: Revealing the presence of hidden cores

open access: yesNukleonika
Cross denars, frequently found in Polish hoards, were traditionally thought to be Ag coins with some Cu content. This study investigates the possibility of a hidden Cu core beneath the Ag or Ag–Cu surface of these coins. It raises questions about whether

Evidence of Middle Holocene landslide-generated tsunamis recorded in lake sediments from Saqqaq, West Greenland [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
The Vaigat strait (Sullorsuaq) in West Greenland is well known for its susceptibility to landslides and historical landslide-generated tsunamis. Recent mapping of the seabed in the Vaigat strait has revealed several prehistoric giga-scale (volumes of 109

Effect of the Fe Content on the Oxide Film Composition and Corrosion Resistance of Inconel 625: An XPS and Cyclic Potentiodynamic Polarisation Study

open access: yesSurface and Interface Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 3, Page 151-163, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The present work focuses on investigating the effect of increasing Inconel 625 Fe content on the oxide film composition and corrosion behaviour through XPS and cyclic potentiodynamic polarisation (CPP) studies. Different proportions of ASTM A182 F22 steel and Inconel 625 were arc‐melted to achieve a range of Fe contents (2–15 wt.%) in the ...

A New Surface Rupture of the 1556 Huaxian M ∼ 8.5 Earthquake Revealed by Rock Surface Luminescence Dating of a Bedrock Fault Scarp and Colluvial Wedges

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Bedrock fault scarps and their associated colluvial wedges provide key evidence for reconstructing paleoearthquakes. We apply rock surface luminescence dating to a bedrock scarp on the Huashan fault in central China, using OSL‐depth profiles (DPs) from multiple heights. Results reveal two coseismic displacements of 6.8 and >1.0 m.

Base metal mineralisation associated with Ordovician shales in south-west Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Several narrow, lenticular belts of black cherty mudstone and siltstone (the Moffat Shales), alternating with thick greywacke sequences, strike north-east to south-west across Galloway with uniformly steep dip.

Orbital timescale CaCO3 burial and dissolution changes off the Chilean margin in the subantarctic Pacific over the past 140 kyr

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) dissolution at the Southern Ocean seafloor has hypothetically contributed to lowering the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration by increasing ocean alkalinity during glacial periods.

Assessment of SiO2 Nanotube Activity to Modify DL α-Tocopherol via 1O2 Generation Under Visible Light Irradiation

open access: yesMicromachines
This work investigates photoactive inorganic powders (SiO2, IrSiO2, and IrO2/IrSiO2) and their derivatives modified with metallated porphyrin, focusing on their ability to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) under visible light exposure.

Small is the New Large: Demonstration of how Microanalyses Elucidate Large‐Scale CO2 Uptake Through Mineralization

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
Imaging techniques like X‐ray microcomputed tomography and electron microscopy are integrated to understand the CO2 mineralization process at the pore‐scale. These techniques are used to characterise the reaction progression in basalt. They increase the reliability of reactive transport modeling and consequently improve the CO2 storage capacity ...

Exploring the Parameter Space of Colloidal High‐Entropy Alloy Synthesis Methods

open access: yesChemistryEurope, Volume 4, Issue 2, February 2026.
We present a systematic study of the parameter space of a simple colloidal synthesis method in which high‐entropy alloy (HEA) nanoparticles (NPs) are formed in triethylene glycol. Ultra‐small (1‐3 nm), single‐phase HEA nanoparticles are obtained via a hot‐injection approach.

Mechanisms of near‐normal sea water dolomitisation: Mesohaline‐reflux or syn‐depositional?

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study investigates the dolomitisation of the Eocene Dammam Formation on the Arabian Plate using petrographic, mineralogical, geochemical and isotopic analyses. The findings reveal two distinct dolomite types, formed primarily through normal‐to‐mesohaline sea water dolomitisation, challenging previous models such as sabkha‐meteoric mixing.
