Enhanced Antibacterial Properties of Lyotropic Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles via Curvature Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid nanostructured particles with increasing negative Gaussian curvature progress from vesicles to P‐cubosomes and D‐cubosomes. This curvature hierarchy enhances interaction with bacterial membranes, promotes membrane remodeling and leakage, and potentiates daptomycin activity against MRSA.

Extended Anionic Network in Mixed‐Valent Nitridocobaltates(I/II) LnCo2N2 (Ln = La, Pr, Nd)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents the high‐pressure synthesis of LnCo2N2 (Ln = La, Pr, Nd) with Co in mixed valent states of +I/+II. The compounds demonstrate the stabilization of a nitridocobaltate with extended anionic Co–N layers where Co is threefold coordinated.

Assessment of the critical condition for the operation of an IBR reactor with a subcritical unit in an equilibrium mode

Nuclear Energy and Technology, 2017
There considered a system consisting of a fast neutron batch pulsed IBR type reactor and a subcritical unit (neutronically thermal). The reactor is fitted with a reactivity modulator, which provides short-term “transfer” of the system from a deep ...

Charge‐Transfer‐Mediated Boron Magneto‐Ionics: Towards Voltage‐Driven Multi‐Ion Transport

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates voltage‐driven multi‐ion transport in FeBO systems, revealing simultaneous motion of B, Fe, and O ions enabled by charge‐transfer effects. By tuning oxidation states through oxygen incorporation, we achieve a transition from electrostatic‐like to electrochemical magneto‐ionic behavior. The findings establish boron magneto‐ionics,

Structural Aspects of Neutron Survival Probabilities

Journal of Nuclear Engineering
The neutron survival probability (and related quantities including probabilities of extinction and initiation) is a central element of the broader stochastic theory of neutron populations and finds application in fields including reactor start-up ...

Towards a highly efficient and unbiased population-control algorithm for kinetic Monte Carlo simulations [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
Population-control methods are key to non-stationary Monte Carlo simulations of multiplying systems: they prevent either the unbounded growth or the disappearance of neutrons, occurring respectively in supercritical and subcritical conditions ...

Metal Battery Anode: Rich in Electrons, Rich in Problems: A Critical Review from Industrial Perspectives

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metal‐anode batteries using Li, Na, Mg, and Ca offer exceptionally high energy density, but dendrites, unstable interphases, cracking, and pore formation hinder durability and safety. This review shows how careful electrolyte and interphase design can stabilize these reactive metals.

A useful observable for estimating keff in fast subcritical systems

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The neutron multiplication factor keff is a key quantity to characterize subcritical neutron multiplying devices and for understanting their physical behaviour, being related to the fundamental eigenvalue of Boltzmann transport equation. Both the maximum

Advances in Computational and Experimental Approaches to Chemical Short‐Range Order Formation in Multi‐Principal Element Alloys

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemical short‐range order (CSRO) plays a central role in governing the behavior of multi‐principal element alloys. This perspective critically assesses computational and experimental approaches for quantifying, characterizing, and validating CSRO, emphasizing modeling–experiment cross‐validation pathways that enable more reliable interpretation of ...
