HFO1234ze(e) As an Alternative Refrigerant for Ejector Cooling Technology
The paper presented a mathematical assessment of selected refrigerants for the ejector cooling purpose. R1234ze(e) and R1234yf are the well-known refrigerants of hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), the fourth-generation halocarbon refrigerants.

Exposure of adult sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius to stranded heavy fuel oil causes developmental toxicity on larval offspring [PDF]
Heavy fuel oil (HFO) spills pose serious threat to coastlines and sensitive resources. Stranded HFO that occurs along the coastline could cause long-term and massive damage to the marine environment and indirectly affect the survival of parental marine ...

Direct tunneling through high-$\kappa$ amorphous HfO$_2$: effects of chemical modification [PDF]
We report first principles modeling of quantum tunneling through amorphous HfO$_2$ dielectric layer of metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) nanostructures in the form of n-Si/HfO$_2$/Al. In particular we predict that chemically modifying the amorphous HfO$_2$
