Monte Carlo simulations are the foundational technique for predicting thermodynamic properties of open systems where the process of interest involves the exchange of particles. Thus, they have been used extensively to computationally evaluate the adsorptio ...
Advancements in novel nanomaterials present promising avenue for therapeutics and diagnosis in nanomedicine. Importantly, in these applications, nanoparticles (NPs) are almost instantly coated with a complex layer of proteins in biological environment, ter ...
The formation pathway of biominerals archetypes, namely calcium carbonate (CaC) and calcium phosphates (CaPs), was investigated using a multidisciplinary approach.
The time-resolved analytical data were collected using a controlled-composition method and i ...
In the ISOL (Isotope Separator OnLine) method a target at high temperatures (up to 2300 degrees C), is bombarded with high energy protons in order to produce isotopes through nuclear reactions which are simultaneously extracted from the target, ionized and ...
We investigate the minus-sign problem that afflicts quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations of frustrated quantum spin systems, focusing on spin S = 1/2, two spatial dimensions, and the extended Shastry-Sutherland model. We show that formulating the Hamilton ...
Nine accurate experimental data sets on amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) formation in dilute solution were collected varying temperature and pH. The entire precipitation process is described using a complete thermodynamic-kinetic model. The thermodynamic ...
The methane deliverable capacity of adsorbent materials is a critical performance metric that will determine the viability of using adsorbed natural gas (ANG) technology in vehicular applications. ARPA-E recently set a target deliverable capacity of 315 cc ...
Overprediction of fine-particle ammonium-sulfate molar ratios (R) by thermodynamic models is suggested as evidence for interactions with organic constituents that inhibit the equilibration of gas-phase ammonia with aerosol sulfate and questions the equilib ...
Disparities between the measured concentrations of ice-nucleating particles (INPs) and in-cloud ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) have led to the hypothesis that mechanisms other than primary nucleation form ice in the atmosphere. Here, we model th ...
Accurate thermodynamic descriptions are a key ingredient to kinetic theories that describe the mesoscale evolution of a solid undergoing ordering or decomposition reactions. We introduce a general approach to identify order parameters for order-disorder re ...
