Numerical and Experimental Validation of Electromagnetic Time Reversal for Geolocation of Lightning Strikes

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Hamidreza Karami

We implement an electromagnetic time reversal technique (EMTR) to locate lightning return strokes. The two-dimensional finite difference time domain is employed to simulate the EMTR process in both, the forward-time and the backward-time phases. Scatterers ...

A LIGHTning Strike to the Metastatic Niche

Michele De Palma, Amaia Martinez Usatorre

Tumor-induced vascular alterations in distant organs have been linked to the spreading of cancer. In this issue of Cell Reports, He et al. (2019) show that targeting the cytokine LIGHT to the pulmonary vasculature prevents the establishment of lung metasta ...
