ABSTRACT Complex organic mixtures are found in many areas of research, such as energy, environment, health, planetology, and cultural heritage, to name but a few. However, due to their complex chemical composition, which holds an extensive potential of information at the molecular level, their molecular characterization is challenging.

Efficiency of harmonic quantum Otto engines at maximal power
Recent experimental breakthroughs produced the first nano heat engines that have the potential to harness quantum resources. An instrumental question is how their performance measures up against the efficiency of classical engines. For single ion engines

ABSTRACT The subsoils of river dikes are often composed of highly permeable and low‐density river sediments. Thus, erosion signatures (leaks, sand boils, sinkholes) can appear in the protected floodplain during floods, highlighting the development of hydromorphodynamic phenomena below the surface, which may harm the safety of the dike system.

ABSTRACT The AquaEcOmics meeting brought together 280 scientists applying omics tools to aquatic research in March 2025 (Evian‐les‐Bains, France). We synthesised here the main outcomes from the 167 presentations which were given. A similar number of presentations were about micro‐ and macroorganisms.

On the ambiguity of an ideal gas entropy concept
Based on a critical analysis of the existing characteristics of an ideal gas and the theory of thermodynamic potentials, the article considers its new model, which includes the presence of an ideal gas in addition to kinetic energy of potential (chemical)

The Carnot-like heat engines are classified into three types (normal-, sub- and super-dissipative) according to relations between the minimum irreversible entropy production in the "isothermal" processes and the time for completing those processes.

Dimensionality and geometry effects on a quantum carnot engine efficiency
We calculate the efficiency of a quantum Carnot cycle for a particle confined in two different infinite potential wells, a cylindrical potential well of variable radius and a two-dimensional square potential well with a periodicity in one of it sides. We

Approaching Carnot efficiency at maximum power in linear response regime
We construct an example of heat engine whose efficiency at maximum power breaks down the previously derived bounds in the linear response regime. Such example takes a classical harmonic oscillator as the working substance undergoing a finite-time Otto ...

EDWARDS' REFERENCE CYCLE FOR INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
Useful physical regularities of a reversible thermodynamic cycle for heat engines have been established in the paper. The engines are using fuel combustion products as a heat source, and the environment - as a heat sink that surpasses Carnot cycle ...
