By employing dimensionally reduced reaction descriptors, a human–machine collaboration framework for efficient electrochemical nitrate reduction to NH3 electrocatalysts screening is established and drastically shorten the discovery timeframe. A new kinetic model is established in combination with a rotating ring‐disk electrode, unveiling the pivotal ...

Ice chemistry in the dense, cold interstellar medium (ISM) is probably responsible for the formation of interstellar complex organic molecules (COMs). Recent laboratory experiments performed at T ∼ 4 K have shown that irradiation of CO:N _2 ice samples ...

Energy Landscapes in Chemical Reactions and Transport
Kinetics/dynamics of chemical reactivity and transport of chemical species in a solid are both determined by the energy landscape in which they take place. Discussing common grounds but also distinct differences may help in advancing the understanding in both fields.

ABSTRACT In the interstellar medium, chemical reactions proceed under conditions vastly different to those on Earth; these include extremely low temperatures and densities and take place in the gas phase and on water–ice grains. Understanding the energetics and more importantly the kinetics of such reactions is of relevance to the consequences on how ...

A Theoretical Approach to the Complex Chemical Evolution of Phosphorus in the Interstellar Medium
The study of phosphorus chemistry in the interstellar medium has become a topic of growing interest in astrobiology because it is plausible that a wide range of P-bearing molecules were introduced in the early Earth by the impact of asteroids and comets ...

ABSTRACT Recent experiments by Nunes et al. have demonstrated that unprecedented control of chemical reactions is possible by narrowband infrared vibrational photo‐excitation at low temperatures in inert matrices. The generated higher energy level conformers may then undergo rotamerisation and tautomerisation reactions which provide extremely useful ...

Strong inverse kinetic isotope effect observed in ammonia charge exchange reactions
Inverse kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) are rarely observed. Here, the authors report an inverse KIE in the charge transfer reaction of $${{\rm{Xe}}}^{+}$$ Xe+ with ammonia.

ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Different Frontier, Same Legal Script? On the Course of Replicating Earth's Patterns in Space
As states and private actors expand their activities in outer space, the international legal framework governing this domain risks extending longstanding structures of global inequality beyond Earth. This article examines how international space law, shaped by a broader disciplinary pattern of reactive legal development, is poised to reproduce ...

The nature of interstellar dust as revealed by light scattering
Interstellar dust was first identified through the extinction that it causes of optical starlight. Initially, observational and theoretical studies of extinction were made to identify simple ways of removing the effect of extinction.
