Year-round trace gas measurements in the central Arctic during the MOSAiC expedition

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot

Despite the key role of the Arctic in the global Earth system, year-round in-situ atmospheric composition observations within the Arctic are sparse and mostly rely on measurements at ground-based coastal stations. Measurements of a suite of in-situ trace g ...

EMC Impact of Disturbances Generated by Multiple Sources

Marcos Rubinstein, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Hamidreza Karami

In this paper, the impact of an increasing number of arbitrary electrical/electronic devices on the overall radiated emissions is investigated. Understanding and quantifying such an impact are prerequisites to the proper evaluation of electromagnetic compa ...

Explanation of Optical Force and Torque on Nanomotors as the Interplay of Huygens Sources

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Mintae Chung

Being able to understand how optical forces emerge from the interaction of light with matter is paramount for controlling the motion of nanoparticles as well as powering nanomotors. The purpose of this work is to uncover the physical mechanisms at the orig ...

A hybrid erbium(III)-bacteriochlorin near-infrared probe for multiplexed biomedical imaging

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Fan Zhang, Ting Wang, Zhiyong Liu

Spectrally distinct fluorophores are desired for multiplexed bioimaging. In particular, monitoring biological processes in living mammals needs fluorophores that operate in the 'tissue-transparent' near-infrared (NIR) window, that is, between 700 and 1,700 ...

Blocked radiative heat transport in the hot pyrolitic lower mantle

James Badro, Farhang Nabiei, Hélène Marie Piet

The heat flux across the core-mantle boundary (Q(CMB)) is the key parameter to understand the Earth's thermal history and evolution. Mineralogical constraints of the Q(CMB) require deciphering contributions of the lattice and radiative components to the th ...

Sub-50-fs photoinduced spin crossover in [Fe(bpy)(3)](2+)

Majed Chergui

It is known that excitation by visible light of the singlet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (1MLCT) states of Fe(II) complexes leads to population of the lowest-lying high-spin quintet state (T-5) with unity quantum yield. Here we investigate this so-calle ...
