The atmosphere of Mars

, 2016
Mars, one of the most Earth-like of the planets, is today a cold, dry and barren world. However, there is good evidence that it may have been much warmer and wetter in the past and perhaps even supported life. The public interest aroused by these findings and by recent studies of 'SNC' meteorites, believed to have come from Mars, with their claims of ...

Fast‐Responding O2 Gas Sensor Based on Luminescent Europium Metal‐Organic Frameworks (MOF‐76)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Luminescent MOF‐76 materials based on Eu(III) and mixed Eu(III)/Y(III) show rapid and reversible changes in emission intensity in response to O2 with very short response times. The effect is based on triplet quenching of the linker ligands that act as photosensitizers. Average emission lifetimes of a few milliseconds turn out to be mostly unaffected by

Super-rotating jets in a re-analysis of the martian atmosphere [PDF]

, 2012
Strong westerly, prograde jets have been identified in the martian atmosphere between about 10–20 km altitude throughout much of the year in a Mars Global Circulation Model (MGCM) study [2]. The development of data assimilation techniques for Mars [3, 5]

PEDOT‐Based Eutectogel Electrode Arrays for Enhanced High‐Resolution Electrogastrography: Fabrication, Stability, and Wearable Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, we present a high‐density PEDOT eutectogel electrode array for enhanced body surface gastric mapping. Silver electrodes are blade‐coated onto flexible substrates, followed by electrogelation of PEDOT:PSS and the deposition of a PEDOT:LS eutectogel.

Atmospheric Distribution and Escape of Odd Nitrogen on Mars

The Astronomical Journal
The total nitrogen budget in the Martian upper atmosphere is significantly contributed by the presence of odd nitrogen, mainly in the form of NO and ground-state or excited-state N.

Longitudinal harmonic components in the Martian upper atmosphere observed by SPICAM and their possible tidal origins

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The longitudinal variations of temperature and pressure in the upper atmosphere of Mars provide important observational constraints on atmospheric waves, including thermal tides. Aims.

Shaping Ti3C2 MXene Nanospheres for Precision Near‐Infrared Photothermal Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, we report producing spherical MXenes via fs laser fragmentation of Ti3C2 flakes in liquid medium. The nanoparticles demonstrated pronounced light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 68% and 63% under heating with NIR‐I and NIR‐II lasers, respectively.

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.
