The Influence of the Atmospheric Electric Field on Soil Redox Potential
Atmospheric electric fields (AEFs) have recently been proposed to link to biogeochemical processes below the Earth’s surface by means of a charge separation.

Hydrogen/nitrogen/oxygen defect complexes in silicon from computational searches [PDF]
Point defect complexes in crystalline silicon composed of hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms are studied within density-functional theory (DFT). Ab initio Random Structure Searching (AIRSS) is used to find low-energy defect structures. We find new lowest-energy structures for several defects: the triple-oxygen defect, {3O}, triple oxygen with a ...

Determination of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture risk involves the accurate prediction of mechanical stresses acting on the arterial tissue, as well as the wall strength which has a correlation with oxygen supply within the aneurysmal wall.

Computational Discovery of Fast Interstitial Oxygen Conductors [PDF]
New highly oxygen-active materials may enhance many energy-related technologies by enabling efficient oxygen-ion transport at lower temperatures, e.g., below 400 Celsius. Interstitial oxygen conductors have the potential to realize such performance but have received far less attention than vacancy-mediated conductors.

Factors controlling oxygen migration barriers in perovskites [PDF]
Perovskites with fast oxygen ion conduction can enable technologies like solid oxide fuel cells. One component of fast oxygen ion conduction is low oxygen migration barrier. Here we apply ab initio methods on over 40 perovskites to produce a database of oxygen migration barriers ranging from 0.2 to 1.6 eV. Mining the database revealed that systems with

Oxygen depletion hypothesis remains controversial: a mathematical model of oxygen depletion during FLASH radiation [PDF]
Background: Experiments have reported low normal tissue toxicities during FLASH radiation, but the mechanism has not been elaborated. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the mechanism. The oxygen depletion hypothesis has been introduced and mostly studied qualitatively.

The beers’ lag time measured with the PBN (N-t-Butyl-α-phenylnitrone) spin trapping experiments coupled with EPR spectroscopy is related to their antioxidant capacity and shelf life. The effect on the lag time of the alcohol content of the beer (starting

Singlet Oxygen Generation as a Major Cause for Parasitic Reactions during Cycling of Aprotic Lithium-Oxygen Batteries [PDF]
Non-aqueous metal-oxygen batteries depend critically on the reversible formation/decomposition of metal oxides on cycling. Irreversible parasitic reactions cause poor rechargeability, efficiency, and cycle life and have predominantly been ascribed to the reactivity of reduced oxygen species with cell components.
