Local Structures of Se and Br in Cretaceous–Paleogene Boundary Sediments and Concentration Effects of Ferrihydrite Originating From Impact Ejecta

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Chemical states of Se and Br atoms in the KPg boundary sediments from Stevns Klint were studied using XAFS spectroscopy. The high concentrations of Se4+ could become an index of the degree to which the global environment was soiled with dust and ash derived from impact ejecta or volcanic eruptions.

Formation of ultracold triatomic molecules by electric microwave association

Physical Review Research
A theoretical model is proposed for the formation of ultracold ground-state triatomic molecules in weakly bound energy levels. The process is driven by the electric component of a microwave field, which induces the association of an ultracold atom ...

Coherent Stokes Raman Scattering for Simultaneous Measurement of CO2 and CH4 Temperatures

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
A three‐beam hybrid fs/ps CSRS method is employed to excite the rovibrational transitions in the Fermi‐dyad of CO2$$ {}_2 $$ and the v2$$ {v}_2 $$ mode of CH4$$ {}_4 $$. Time‐domain spectroscopic models are developed to extract the fuel and flame temperature profiles from experimental CH4$$ {}_4 $$ and CO2$$ {}_2 $$ spectra in a diffusion flame ...

Qualitative Analysis of Biogas by Raman Spectroscopy: Effect of Pressure on Major Components

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Raman spectra of major and selected minor biogas components were studied under pressures up to 100 bar. Pressure‐induced shifts and band broadening were quantified for methane, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen, while Raman spectra of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide are presented in the context of biogas quality monitoring.

Scaling turbulence drives the general circulation

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The NOAA Gulfstream SP4, which deployed the GPS dropsondes over the NE Pacific Ocean as part of the Winter Storms Project during the January–March periods of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Abstract Statistical multifractal analysis of airborne and dropsonde observations is used to show that persistence of velocity after molecular collisions breaks the continuous

Effect of Metal–Metal Distance on the Performance of Dual‐Atom Catalysts for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction: A Density Functional Theory and Micro‐kinetics Study

Small, EarlyView.
Density functional theory calculations and microkinetic modeling were carried out on 108 dual‐atom catalysts with varied metalmetal distances ranging from 2.2 to 3.5 Å. The results reveal that moderate spacing of around 3.0 Å promotes bridging oxygen adsorption and dissociative reduction pathways, weakens the hydroxylhydroperoxyl scaling relationship ...

Selective Production of Methanol via Bidentate Coordination of an Intermediate on the Dual‐Atom Electro‐Catalyst

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This study utilizes density functional theory (DFT) and constrained molecular dynamics (cMD) to investigate the free energy landscape of the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction at a liquid–solid interface. The research highlights a dual‐atom catalyst—specifically a Cu─Sn pair anchored in a nitrogen‐doped carbon framework—that facilitates the ...

Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects of Chemical Pollutants and Parasitic Fungi on Cyanobacterial Metabolism

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pollutants, including the widely used herbicide metolachlor (MET) and cigarette butt (CB) litter. Parasites represent an additional biotic stressor that can modulate pollutant effects on their hosts.

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.
