Clocking the onset of bilayer coherence in a high- Tc cuprate

Fabrizio Carbone, Frank van Mourik, Christopher Alexander Arrell, Edoardo Baldini, Andreas Helmut Christian Mann, Dragan Mihailovic

In cuprates, a precursor state of superconductivity is speculated to exist above the critical temperature TC. Here we show via a combination of far-infrared ellipsometry and ultrafast broadband optical spectroscopy that signatures of such a state can be ob ...

Advances in Vanadium-Based Catalyst Research for the Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx by NH₃

Adrian Marberger

The most efficient after-treatment technology for reducing harmful NOx emissions from stationary and mobile sources of diesel exhaust is the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with ammonia (NH3). Vanadium-based SCR catalysts reduce NOx selectively ...

Temperature-colour interaction: is colour affecting people’s thermal perception?

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

Over the last century, a large number of studies has tried to answer to the question whether coloured stimuli could have an effect on human thermal perceptual evaluation (i.e., temperature-colour interaction). In the building research area, this effect is ...

Exergy assessment of future energy transition scenarios with application to Switzerland

François Maréchal, Daniel Favrat, François Richard Vuille, Victor Codina Gironès, Matteo Allais

Using an exergy based indicator is highly desirable to compare future national energy strategies. A new web- based information platform called energyscope.ch, informing the general public on the Swiss energy transition was presented at ECOS2016. This paper ...

Dynamics of methane dissociation on transition metals

Rainer Beck

One of the many contributions of Harold Winters to surface science was his pioneering ultrahigh vacuum study on the kinetics of the technologically important dissociation of CH4 on transition metals in the 1970s. He observed a dramatic activation of the di ...

High-flux optical systems for solar thermochemistry

Sophia Haussener, Gaël Jean Clément Levêque

High-flux optical systems (HFOSs) are optical concentrators used to increase the radiative flux of the natural terrestrial solar irradiation. High radiative flux concentration leads to high energy density in solar receivers which allow to obtain high tempe ...

Non-Parametric Estimation of Surface Temperature of Li-ion Cells using Thermal Impulse Response

Mario Paolone, Dimitri Torregrossa, Ying Xiao

This paper focuses on the prediction of temperature profiles on the surface of lithium-ion cells using a non-parametric method. In particular, this paper proposes the adoption of the impulse response technique to compute and interpret cell surface temperat ...

Quantum state resolved molecular beam reflectivity measurements: CH4 dissociation on Pt(111)

Rainer Beck, Ana Gutiérrez González, Helen Jane Chadwick

The King and Wells molecular beam reflectivity method has been used for a quantum state resolved study of the dissociative chemisorption of CH4 on Pt(111) at several surface temperatures. Initial sticking coefficients were measured for incident CH4 prepare ...

Seasonality in cholera dynamics: A rainfall-driven model explains the wide range of patterns in endemic areas

Enrico Bertuzzo, Theo Baracchini

Seasonal patterns in cholera dynamics exhibit pronounced variability across geographical regions, showing single or multiple peaks at different times of the year. Although multiple hypotheses related to local climate variables have been proposed, an unders ...
