The Planets Mercury and Venus [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1928
THROUGH the kindness of Dr. Deslandres, I followed Mercury here last spring and summer with the 33-inch refractor, and all recent observations confirm my 1927 results with the same instrument as to the correctness of the 88-day rotation period and as to the presence of whitish atmospheric veils of low albedo, which occasionally distort and conceal the ...

Titanium Dioxide Induced Immobilization of Small Platinum Nanoparticles on Carbon Spherogels: A Strategy Towards Stable and Efficient Electrocatalysts for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Platinum nanoparticles are immobilized on hollow carbon spherogels using supercritical deposition, enabling precise control over nanoparticle size, loading, and spatial distribution. Incorporation of an internal TiO2 sublayer in the hollow sphere support induces enhanced metal–support interactions, markedly improving hydrogen evolution activity and ...

Formation of the Terrestrial Planets from a Narrow Annulus

open access: yes, 2009
We show that the assembly of the Solar System terrestrial planets can be successfully modelled with all of the mass initially confined to a narrow annulus between 0.7 and 1.0 AU.

Site‐Engineered Corundum‐Structured Aesthetic Composites for Alleviating Heat Accumulation to Mitigate Urban Heat Islands

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban heat islands have become a global issue, as they severely impact several key factors, including elevated energy consumption, increased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, compromised human health and comfort, and reduced water quality.

Strain‐Modulated Engineering of High‐Entropy Vanadium‐Based Chalcogenide for Sustainable Water Oxidation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
High‐entropy metal chalcogenides (HEMC) incorporating five equimolar transition metals and sulfur were synthesized via an efficient solvothermal method. The resulting HEMC exhibits a single‐phase pyrite (Pa‐3) crystal structure, which was thoroughly characterized using advanced structural analysis techniques. As an anode material, the HEMC demonstrates

Outline of a Washing Treatment to Improve Electric Arc Furnace Slag Environmental Behavior

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
This study evaluates a water‐washing treatment for electric arc furnace slag to reduce the leaching of hazardous elements (Cr, Ba, Mo, and V), enabling its reuse. The process effectively decreases leachate concentrations. Using the treated slag as a substitute aggregate in concrete reduces greenhouse gases emissions by 42.5% compared to landfilling ...

Mercury's Exosphere During MESSENGER's Second Flyby: Detection of Magnesium and Distinct Distributions of Neutral Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
During MESSENGER's second Mercury flyby, the Mercury Atmospheric and Surface Composition Spectrometer observed emission from Mercury's neutral exosphere. These observations include the first detection of emission from magnesium.

Micronuclei and Other Nuclear Abnormalities in Patella Limpet as Biomarkers of Cytogenotoxicity in Recreational Port Waters

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past decades, the growth in human population and economic activities has led to an increase in maritime traffic. This rise puts additional pressure on marine environments, vessel fuel spills being considered to have a major impact on the ecosystem.

Mercury Exploration: Looking to the Future [PDF]

open access: yes
Prior to the return of data from the NASA MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft], information relating to Mercury was limited. From the NASA Mariner 10 flybys, in 1974 and 1975, ~45% of the planet was imaged,

Mass-Radius Relations and Core-Envelope Decompositions of Super-Earths and Sub-Neptunes

open access: yes, 2014
Many exoplanets have been discovered with radii of 1-4 Earth radii, between that of Earth and Neptune. A number of these are known to have densities consistent with solid compositions, while others are "sub-Neptunes" likely to have significant hydrogen ...
