Ultimate 100m World Records Through Extreme-Value Theory [PDF]
We use extreme-value theory to estimate the ultimate world records for the 100m running, for both men and women. For this aim we collected the fastest personal best times set between January 1991 and June 2008.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A green, external‐catalyst‐free route grows defect‐free covalent organic framework membranes directly on ion‐exchange supports using an alternating electric field and in situ‐generated acid. Through a self‐regulating, self‐healing mechanism, the membranes achieve near‐complete, ultra‐fast separation of monovalent ions such as Li+, Na+, and K+, offering

Inverse Design of Nanoparticulate Materials
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Inverse design shifts nanomaterial development from empirical trial‐and‐error to predictive model‐driven strategies. It can rely on knowledge‐based, data‐based, or hybrid process and property functions. This perspective article provides a practical framework for applying inverse design based on instructive examples. It discusses which modeling approach

The critical decade: extreme weather [PDF]
, 2013 When extreme weather events occur the Climate Commission is consistently asked questions about the link to climate change. This report unpacks our current knowledge about different types of extreme weather events: extreme temperatures, rainfall ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.In situ PXRD data on solvothermal reactions accelerate materials discovery while simultaneously providing fundamental insights into complex crystal formation processes. Using PdxMy (M = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb) as an example, a general formation mechanism is identified, and specific synthesis strategies for ex situ preparation of SnPd2, Sn13Pd20, and SnPd ...

The Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) Distribution, Implied Tail Index and Option Pricing [PDF]
Crisis events such as the 1987 stock market crash, the Asian Crisis and the bursting of the Dot-Com bubble have radically changed the view that extreme events in financial markets have negligible probability.
