Application of Magnesium Metal as Anode in Batteries

MetalMat, EarlyView.
When used as an anode, magnesium metal offers several advantages, including a high volumetric capacity, environmental friendliness, abundant natural reserves, and a low tendency for dendrite growth. Battery types employing magnesium as the anode include rechargeable magnesium‐ion batteries, aqueous magnesium‐ion batteries, magnesium–air batteries, and ...

Vision language models for bridge inspections: A review of applications in image‐based damage documentation

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Automating bridge inspections requires more than detecting individual damage instances. It demands systems capable of describing, contextualizing, and interpreting damage in an inspection‐relevant manner. Conventional computer vision approaches, such as object detection and segmentation, primarily address visual recognition tasks and are ...

Asymmetric Iron‐Catalyzed Vicinal C(sp3)─H Diamination of Carboxylic Acids

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 32, 3 August 2026.
An iron‐catalyzed vicinal α,β‐C(sp3)─H diamination of readily available carboxylic acids furnishes chiral α,β‐diamino acids in a single pot with high regio‐, diastereo‐, and enantioselectivity (up to >20:1 dr and >99% ee). ABSTRACT The direct construction of chiral 1,2‐diamines through the stereoselective functionalization of two vicinal C(sp3)─H bonds

Temporality of Features in Near-Death Experience Narratives

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Background: After an occurrence of a Near-Death Experience (NDE), Near-Death Experiencers (NDErs) usually report extremely rich and detailed narratives. Phenomenologically, a NDE can be described as a set of distinguishable features.
