Interplay of the mechanical and structural properties of DNA nanostructures determines their electrostatic interactions with lipid membranes

Maartje Martina Cornelia Bastings, Cem Tekin, Diana Kornelia Morzy, Vincenzo Caroprese

Nucleic acids and lipids function in close proximity in biological processes, as well as in nanoengineered constructs for therapeutic applications. As both molecules carry a rich charge profile, and frequently coexist in complex ionic solutions, the electr ...

Hybrid multiple-site mass closure and source apportionment of PM2.5 and aerosol acidity at major cities in the Po Valley

Athanasios Nenes, Spyros Pandis

This study investigates the major chemical components, particle-bound water content, acidity (pH), and major potential sources of PM2.5 in major cities (Belluno, Conegliano, Vicenza, Mestre, Padua, and Rovigo) in the eastern end of the Po Valley. The measu ...

Regional investigation of spatial-temporal variability of soil magnesium - a case study from Switzerland

Stéphane Joost, Luca Bragazza, Clément Levasseur

Magnesium (Mg) is an essential element for plant growth and human health. Its availability and spatial distribution in soils depends on a wide variety of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Understanding how Mg availability changes in space and time is crucia ...

Magnesium Partitioning Between Earth's Mantle and Core and its Potential to Drive an Early Exsolution Geodynamo

James Badro

Magnesium partitioning between metal and silicate was experimentally investigated between 34 and 138GPa, 3,500 and 5,450K using laser-heated diamond anvil cells. The 22 measurements are combined with previously published data (total of 49 measurements) to ...

Aqueous metal-organic solutions for YSZ thin film inkjet deposition

Andreas Stephan Lesch

Inkjet printing of 8% Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2 (YSZ) thin films is achieved by designing a novel water-based reactive ink for Drop-on-Demand (DoD) inkjet printing. The ink formulation is based on a novel chemical strategy that consists of a combination of meta ...

Reading and writing single-atom magnets

Donat Fabian Natterer

The single-atom bit represents the ultimate limit of the classical approach to high-density magnetic storage media. So far, the smallest individually addressable bistable magnetic bits have consisted of 3-12 atoms(1-3). Long magnetic relaxation times have ...

Intrinsic structural transitions of the pyramidal I < c plus a > dislocation in magnesium

William Curtin, Zhaoxuan Wu

The stability of a mixed < c + a > dislocation on the pyramidal I plane in magnesium is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The dislocation is metastable and undergoes a thermally-activated transition to either a sessile, basal-dissociated < c + ...

An early geodynamo driven by exsolution of mantle components from Earth's core

James Badro

Recent palaeomagnetic observations(1) report the existence of a magnetic field on Earth that is at least 3.45 billion years old. Compositional buoyancy caused by inner-core growth(2) is the primary driver of Earth's present-day geodynamo(3-5), but the inne ...
