The unreasonable effectiveness of experiments in constraining nova nucleosynthesis [PDF]

, 2013
Classical nova explosions arise from thermonuclear ignition in the envelopes of accreting white dwarfs in close binary star systems. Detailed observations of novae have stimulated numerous studies in theoretical astrophysics and experimental nuclear ...

Technical note: Comparison of radiometric techniques for estimating recent organic carbon sequestration rates in inland wetland soils [PDF]

Biogeosciences
For wetlands to serve as natural climate solutions, accurate estimates of organic carbon (OC) sequestration rates in wetland sediments are needed. Dating using cesium-137 (137Cs) and lead-210 (210Pb) radioisotopes is commonly used for measuring OC ...

Facile Synthesis of Nanolayered Manganese Oxide for the Efficient and Selective Removal of Strontium(II) from Nuclear Wastewater

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel nanolayered manganese oxide material (Na‐NLMO) is prepared using a rapid and straightforward method for efficient adsorption of Sr(II) in both simulated waste liquid and natural water systems. Its excellent adsorption performance of Na‐NLMO could be attributed to the accessible layered structure and negatively charged framework.
