Fritz Haber: The Damned Scientist [PDF]
In the gallery of famous people tracing their origins to Wroc{\l}aw, few are as controversial, as complex, or as tragic as Fritz Haber, ever more distant in the flux of time, yet still stirring emotions. He developed a method for the direct synthesis of ammonia from its elements and later pioneered chemical warfare on the battlefields of the First ...

Ultraviolet Raman Spectroscopy for Remote Detection of Chlorine Gas [PDF]
As a primary material frequently used in industry, chlorine is relatively easy to obtain and available even in large quantities. Despite its high toxicity, molecular chlorine is readily available since it is an essential educt in the chemical industry.

Tens of thousands of chemical warfare agents were abandoned in China by the Japanese army after their defeat of invasion of China. Most of the chemical warfare agents have been buried in the soil for more than half a century and the risk of chemical ...

Molybdenum Carbide MXenes as Efficient Nanosensors Towards Selected Chemical Warfare Agents [PDF]
There has been budding demand for the fast, reliable, inexpensive, non-invasive, sensitive, and compact sensors with low power consumption in various fields, such as defence, chemical sensing, health care, and safe environment monitoring units. Particularly, an efficient detection of chemical warfare agents (CWAs) is of great importance for the safety ...

Late cutaneous complications in chemical warfare victims in Kerman province [PDF]
Iraq has used chemical warfare agents in recent Iran-Iraq conflict ( 1980-88) . There are few studies regarding late complications of chemical warfare and there is no report concerning late cutaneous complications. The present study is concerned with the

Censoring chemical data to mitigate dual use risk [PDF]
The dual use of machine learning applications, where models can be used for both beneficial and malicious purposes, presents a significant challenge. This has recently become a particular concern in chemistry, where chemical datasets containing sensitive labels (e.g.

Machine learning for the prediction of safe and biologically active organophosphorus molecules [PDF]
Drug discovery is a complex process with a large molecular space to be considered. By constraining the search space, the fragment-based drug design is an approach that can effectively sample the chemical space of interest. Here we propose a framework of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) with an attention model to sample the chemical space of ...

Evolution and stability of altruist strategies in microbial games [PDF]
When microbes compete for limited resources, they often engage in chemical warfare using bacterial toxins. This competition can be understood in terms of evolutionary game theory (EGT). We study the predictions of EGT for the bacterial "suicide bomber" game in terms of the phase portraits of population dynamics, for parameter combinations that cover ...

Sarin and Air Permeation Through a Nanoporous Graphene [PDF]
Sarin gas is a dangerous chemical warfare agent (CWA). It is a nerve agent capable of bringing a person to death in about 15 minutes. A lethal concentration of sarin molecules in air is about 30 mg/m3. Experimental research on this gas requires very careful safety protocols for handling and storage.
