Herein, electrocatalytic activity enhancement is reported of NiCoP nanorods by applying an external magnetic field. The NiCoP nanorods exhibit an overpotential of 100 mV at 10 mA cm−2 without magnetic field. However, under low magnetic field of 2000 G, the overpotential reduces to 62 mV at 10 mA cm−2 in 0.5 M H2SO4, demonstrating that external magnetic

Transfer reactions for nuclear astrophysics
Direct measurements of cross sections at stellar energies are very challenging - if at all possible. This is essentially due to the very low cross-sections of the reactions of interest (especially when it involves charged particles), and/or to the ...

Short Wavelength Limit of the Dynamic Matsubara Local Field Correction
ABSTRACT We investigate the short wavelength limit of the dynamic Matsubara local field correction G˜q,zl$$ \tilde{G}\left(\mathbf{q},{z}_l\right) $$ of the uniform electron gas based on direct ab initio path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) results over an unprecedented range of wavenumbers, q≲20qF$$ q\lesssim 20{q}_{\mathrm{F}} $$, where qF$$ {q}_{\mathrm{

Constraining properties of neutron stars with heavy-ion reactions in terrestrial laboratories
Heavy-ion reactions provide a unique means to investigate the equation of state (EOS) of neutron-rich nuclear matter, especially the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy $E_{sym}(\rho)$.

Partition Functions and Mass Action Constants of Plasmas of Light Elements at Higher Temperatures
ABSTRACT We first analyze the relations between the work of Planck and Klimontovich and show that Klimontovich's kinetic theory of non‐ideal plasmas confirms Planck's partition function for the hydrogen plasma. We discuss and check the Planck‐Brillouin‐Larkin (PBL) expressions for Hydrogen with PIMC calculations and derive new partition functions and ...

Electron Density Structure Measurements With Scattered Intense Laser Beam
ABSTRACT Short‐pulse intense lasers have the potential to model extreme astrophysical environments in laboratories. Although there are diagnostics for energetic electrons and ions resulting from laser‐plasma interactions, the diagnostics to measure velocity distribution functions at the interaction region of the laser and plasma are limited.
