LiBH4 contains 18.5 wt% hydrogen and undergoes a structural phase transition (orthorhombic → hexagonal) at 381 K which is associated with a large increase in hydrogen and lithium solid-state mobility. We investigated the hydrogen dynamics in the low temper ...
For real-time control of ozonation processes in water works, a sequencing batch reactor was constructed to measure the ozone decay rate constant (k(O3)) in short time intervals of about 15 min. The batch reactor is filled during the production process, imm ...
In a series of smog chamber experiments, the cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) generated from ozonolysis of β-caryophyllene was characterized by determining the CCN derived hygroscopicity parameter, κCCN, from expe ...
For a large number of non-oxideceramic/metal as well as for non-oxide particulate reinforced composite/metal tribocouples,oxidative wear is reported to play a major role in the overall damage and material removal process.The designing of new materials with ...
The experiment performed by Bonneville and Escaig, designed for the direct measurement of the activation parameters of cross-slip, has been repeated. A denser initial dislocation forest density is obtained with a higher predeformation stress compared with ...
One of the greatest sources of uncertainty in the science of anthropogenic climate change is from aerosol-cloud interactions. The activation of aerosols into cloud droplets is a direct microphysical linkage between aerosols and clouds; parameterizations of ...
Most hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in the bone marrow reside in a quiescent state and occasionally enter the cell cycle upon cytokine-induced activation. Although the mechanisms regulating HSC quiescence and activation remain poorly defined, recent studie ...
We present size-segregated measurements of cloud condensation nucleus (CCN) activity of aged aerosol sampled at Finokalia, Crete, during the Finokalia Aerosol Measurement Experiment of summer 2007 (FAME07). From analysis of the data, hygroscopicity and act ...
Competition between charge recombination and the forward reactions required for water splitting limits the efficiency of metal-oxide photocatalysts. A key requirement for the photochemical oxidation of water on both nanostructured alpha-Fe2O3 and TiO2 is t ...
The continuous-flow streamwise thermal-gradient cloud condensation nuclei counter (CFSTGC) is a commercially available instrument that is widely used for laboratory and field measurements of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). All studies to date assume that ...
