Heavy metal distribution in some French forest soils: evidence for atmospheric contamination [PDF]
, 2003 This study is one of very few dealing with the distribution and the origin of heavy metals in French soils from a priori non-polluted forest areas. The abundance of heavy metals measured in these soils decreases as follows: Cr) Zn)Pb)Ni)Cu)Co4Cd. Total

Dissymmetrical tunnelling in heavy fermion metals
, 2005 A tunnelling conductivity between a heavy fermion metal and a simple metallic point is considered. We show that at low temperatures this conductivity can be noticeably dissymmetrical with respect to the change of voltage bias.

Deformation Behavior of La2O3‐Doped Copper during Equal Channel Angular Pressing
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.By additions of strengthening elements and/or structure optimization, the mechanical properties of copper can be increased while keeping favorable electric conductivity. By combining addition of La2O3 and processing by equal channel angular pressing, substructure development is achieved, leading to increase in microhardness to more than double the ...

Phytoassessment of Vetiver grass enhanced with EDTA soil amendment grown in single and mixed heavy metal–contaminated soil [PDF]
, 2019 Over the years, ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetate (EDTA) has been widely used for many purposes. However, there are inadequate phytoassessment studies conducted using EDTA in Vetiver grass. Hence, this study evaluates the phytoassessment (growth performance,
