Stream temperature is one of the key variables affecting the habitat suitability of numerous aquatic species. Over the past decades, research efforts on this topic have concentrated on low-land rivers of North-America, whereas mountainous environments have ...
The unusual chemistry of sulfur is illustrated by the tendency for catenation. Sulfur forms a range of open and closed S-n species in the gas phase, which has led to speculation on the composition of sulfur vapours as a function of temperature and pressure ...
Fluid phase transitions inside single, isolated carbon nanotubes are predicted to deviate substantially from classical thermodynamics. This behaviour enables the study of ice nanotubes and the exploration of their potential applications. Here we report mea ...
We theoretically demonstrate a mechanism for bright soliton generation in spinor non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensates made of atoms or quasi-particles such as polaritons in semiconductor microcavities. We give analytical expressions for bright (half) ...
Transforming lignocellulosic biomass into fuels and chemicals has been intensely studied in recent years. A large amount of work has been dedicated to finding suitable solvent systems, which can improve the transformation of biomass into value-added chemic ...
The tetragonal form of ZrO2 is used in a wide range of technologies. In this study, we systematically explore the effect of strain on the relative stability of symmetrically equivalent tetragonal variants of ZrO2 using first-principles density functional t ...
Systematic analysis for the redirection of carbon flux in metabolite-producing microorganisms requires the comprehensive understanding of their complex metabolic processes. The use of large-scale dynamic models of metabolism plays key role in the understan ...

Aqueous electrophilic reactions are broadly important in environmental chemistry, but the thermodynamic equilibrium constants, rate constants, and mechanisms describing these reactions are often difficult to determine by experiment. Here we report on our e ...
Why do chaperones need ATP hydrolysis to help proteins reach their native, functional states? In this review, we highlight the most recent experimental and theoretical evidences suggesting that ATP hydrolysis allows molecular chaperones to escape the bound ...
