Hydrogen migration at restructuring palladium-silver oxide boundaries dramatically enhances reduction rate of silver oxide. [PDF]
Heterogeneous catalysts are complex materials with multiple interfaces. A critical proposition in exploiting bifunctionality in alloy catalysts is to achieve surface migration across interfaces separating functionally dissimilar regions.

Design of a Graphene Nitrene Two-Dimensional Catalyst Heterostructure Providing a Well-Defined Site Accommodating 1 to 3 Metals, with Application to CO₂ Reduction Electrocatalysis for the 2 Metal Case [PDF]
Recently, the reduction of CO₂ to fuels has been the subject of numerous studies, but the selectivity and activity remain inadequate. Progress has been made on single-site two-dimensional catalysts based on graphene coupled to a metal and nitrogen for ...

Electrocatalysts for hydrogen oxidation and evolution reactions [PDF]
ABSTRACT The hydrogen economy is a clean, efficient, and sustainable energy system that delivers energy using hydrogen. Electrolyzers are used to generate hydrogen, and fuel cells consume hydrogen as a fuel. These devices rely on hydrogen evolution and oxidation reactions. Catalysts are required to accelerate the reactions.

A search for CO+ in planetary nebulae [PDF]
We have carried out a systematic search for the molecular ion CO+ in a sample of 8 protoplanetary and planetary nebulae in order to determine the origin of the unexpectedly strong HCO+ emission previously detected in these sources.

Exploring non-adiabaticity to CO reduction reaction through ab initio molecular dynamics simulation [PDF]
Non-adiabatic chemical reaction refers to the electronic excitation during reactions. This effect cannot be modeled by the ground-state Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BO-MD), where the electronic structure is at the ground state for every step of ...

Fully Nonadiabatic Analysis of Vibrational Instability of Population III Stars due to the $\varepsilon$-Mechanism [PDF]
A linear nonadiabatic analysis of the vibrational stability of population III main-sequence stars was carried out. It was demonstrated that, in the case of massive stars with $M \gtrsim 5\Mo$, helium burning (triple alpha reaction) starts during the main-
