From Codes to Contexts: The Maturation of Historical Cryptology

open access: yesHistory Compass, Volume 24, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past decades, the study of historical cryptology in Europe has evolved from a marginal, largely individual pursuit into a consolidated field of research with dedicated conferences, collaborative projects, and institutional research groups.

Cosmic Dust Flux During the Quaternary: The Record of Large Scoriaceous and Unmelted Micrometeorites From the Transantarctic Mountains Collection

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We estimate the cosmic dust flux to Earth through the study of rare micrometeorites that preserve part of their precursor features during atmospheric entry heating, namely unmelted and scoriaceous subtypes. Combining high‐precision mass balance measurements, X‐ray computed microtomography and scanning electron microscopy, we studied mass, size

Emotions in Meaning‐Making: Toward a Sociological Theory of Cathexis

open access: yesSociological Forum, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 308-319, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The role of emotion in meaning‐making remains undertheorized in cultural sociology. This article argues that emotions and affect are intrinsic to meaning‐making and proposes cathexis—the attachment of emotions generated in social interaction to objects, symbols, and ideas—as the fundamental mechanism by which emotions co‐constitute cultural ...

‘Come on, Give Me the Pills Now’: A Narrative Analysis of Reproductive Agency in Self‐Managed Abortion in Argentina

open access: yesSociology of Health &Illness, Volume 48, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent discussions on self‐managed abortion highlight its potential to reduce risks and delays while supporting reproductive rights. This qualitative paper analyses the stories of 12 women who self‐managed their abortions in Argentina. In‐depth interviews were conducted in April and May 2024. Using a framework of reproductive agency, the paper

Utilizing Exhaled Breath and Skin Microbiomes in Assessments of At‐Risk Killer Whales (Orcinus orca)

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT For at‐risk populations of killer whales (Orcinus orca), biological samples can offer information about individual animal status. We hypothesized that low‐yield samples could provide sufficient material for microbiome analysis. We collected and analyzed, with amplicon metabarcoding, breath samples from managed care and free‐ranging killer ...

Do Fans of Violent Stories Show a Higher Potential for Creative Harm? True Crime as a Stimulating Environment for Malevolent Creativity

open access: yesThe Journal of Creative Behavior, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The media we consume may shape our cognition, emotion, and behavior. While violent media effects on aggression have been studied extensively, one popular media genre has escaped scrutiny until now: true crime, featuring real stories of assault, murder, or serial killings.

Time Tools

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 147-168, January 2026.
Abstract Many core human activities require an understanding of time. To coordinate rituals, plan harvests and hunts, recall histories, keep appointments, and follow recipes, we need to grapple with invisible temporal structures like durations, sequences, and cycles. No other species seems to do this.

Confrontations of the Pathogenic Fungus Colletotrichum graminicola With a Biocontrol Bacterium or a Ubiquitous Fungus Trigger Synthesis of Secondary Metabolites With Lead Structures of Synthetic Fungicides

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.
Introduction of biocontrol agents to agricultural environments creates microbial confrontations. In confrontations between a fungal maize pathogen and a biocontrol bacterium or a ubiquitous fungus, novel compounds with similarity to synthetic fungicides and substances putatively toxic to humans are formed, questioning consumer safety of biological ...

Weichselian–Holocene glacial history of the Sjuøyane archipelago, northern Svalbard

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 54, Issue 3, Page 288-304, July 2025.
To reconstruct the glacial history of Sjuøyane, we describe coastal sedimentary sections in Quaternary sediments and constrain their chronology by radiocarbon and optically stimulated luminescence ages. The sedimentary sections largely consist of shallow (glacio‐)marine and/or littoral sediments deposited during high relative sea levels.

Aging in Southeast Asia and Japan: Challenges and opportunities

open access: yesGeriatrics &Gerontology International, Volume 25, Issue 7, Page 837-854, July 2025.
This paper advocates the importance of considering the relative position of age in society, rather than simply focusing on age alone. In Japan, the 90th percentile age has reached 80 years, which means that 10% of the population is aged ≥80 years. Trends in life expectancy and fertility in Southeast Asia reflect the region's vulnerability to conflicts,
