ABSTRACT Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a targeted radiotherapy that exploits the selective accumulation of the 10B isotope within tumors, followed by irradiation with low‐energy neutrons to induce high linear energy transfer particles with short path lengths, resulting in localized tumor cell destruction while sparing surrounding healthy ...

Abstract Neutron crystallography was used to determine a 2.5‐Å resolution all‐atom structure of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) interacting with 3‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐pyruvate (HPP). MIF is a pro‐inflammatory, pro‐tumorigenic protein that may be an attractive therapeutic target. MIF catalyzes the interconversion of the keto and enol forms of

Neutron Reflectometry and Compression of Graded Hydrogel Surfaces
Highly‐entangled and covalently‐crosslinked hydrogels with thin and thick surface gel layers are compressed in neutron reflectometry experiments. Surface gel layer thickness dictates the extent to which the polymer network at the surface of a hydrogel collapses, while crosslinking chemistry, and therefore elastic modulus, impacts the pressure at which ...

Overcoming Interfacial Hurdles in Solid‐State Aluminum Batteries for Safe and Energy‐Dense Storage
Solid‐state aluminum batteries (SSABs) promise high energy density and intrinsic safety but face severe solid–solid interfacial challenges. This review reveals the three core hurdles—anode passivation, cathode contact loss, and electrolyte grain boundary resistance and discusses strategies including artificial interphases, alloying, and composite ...

Tracking Dynamic Sulfur Electrochemistry by Operando Techniques in Alkali Metal‐Sulfur Batteries
Dynamic sulfur electrochemistry in alkali metal‐sulfur batteries is tracked through operando spectroscopy, scattering, imaging, and modelling. This Review connects sulfur reaction pathways, polysulfide transport, electrolyte/interphase evolution, anode chemistry, and quantitative mechanistic analysis across Li‐S, Na‐S, and K‐S batteries, providing ...

Combined experimental and theoretical approaches reveal how Cr and Ni substitution in TiFe‐based alloys tune lattice expansion and hydride thermodynamics. While both elements increase hydride stability, they exert opposite effects on the entropy of hydrogen desorption, providing new insight into thermodynamic design of AB‐type hydrogen storage ...

HCl‐Free Mechanochemical Synthesis of Lithium Niobium Oxychlorides
A novel mechanochemical route utilizing lithium niobate precursors and chlorides eliminates corrosive HCl byproduct, enabling the direct synthesis of LiNbOCl4 with a high ionic conductivity of 11.8 mS cm−1. Halide‐based oxychloride electrolytes, including LiNbOCl4, are promising candidates for all‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs) due to their high ionic ...
