Erythrocyte Vulnerability to Airborne Nanopollutants

open access: yesToxics
The toxicological impact of airborne polluting ultrafine particles (UFPs, also classified as nanoparticles with average sizes of less than 100 nm) is an emerging area of research pursuing a better understanding of the health hazards they pose to humans ...

Vanadium dioxide as a natural disordered metamaterial: perfect thermal emission and large broadband negative differential thermal emittance

open access: yes, 2013
We experimentally demonstrate that a thin (~150 nm) film of vanadium dioxide (VO2) deposited on sapphire has an anomalous thermal emittance profile when heated, which arises due to the optical interaction between the film and the substrate when the VO2 ...

HRTEM Imaging and Mechanistic Insights Into Carbon Nanotube Nucleation and Growth on Fe Nanocatalysts in a Thermal Plasma

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were successfully debundled from Tuball soots produced using iron nanocatalysts in arc discharge thermal plasma and distributed on monolayer graphene for HRTEM imaging for mechanistic insights into CNT synthesis. Zigzag single‐wall or double‐wall CNTs were identified.

Thermal Emission and Albedo Spectra of Super Earths with Flat Transmission Spectra

open access: yes, 2015
Planets larger than Earth and smaller than Neptune are some of the most numerous in the galaxy, but observational efforts to understand this population have proved challenging because optically thick clouds or hazes at high altitudes obscure molecular ...

In Situ Investigation of Microstructure Evolution and Stress Generation During Low‐Pressure Carburizing and Quenching by Means of Synchrotron X‐Ray Diffraction

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
This study uses in situ synchrotron X‐ray diffraction at the German Electron Synchrotron to analyze low‐pressure carburizing (LPC) in steels. The findings reveal surface carbon saturation and carbide formation kinetics, and phase‐specific stress development during quenching. The results show carbide kinetics depend on steel grade and size, while stress

Thermal Degradation and Thermal Decomposition of Plasticized PVC Including POSS Additives for PVC Compounds: Mechanisms, Impact, and Performance of Standards

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
Additives' structures. ABSTRACT Poly(vinyl chloride) has been a key polymeric material since its commercial production in 1931, demonstrating versatility across numerous industries due to its compatibility with various additives. PVC's inherent properties, flame retardance, durability, and recyclability make it ideal for building and construction ...

Tuning the Dynamic Thermal Parameters of Nanocarbon Ionanofluids: A Photopyroelectric Study

open access: yesC
The present work delineates the tailoring of the thermal effusivity and diffusivity of the novel class of heat transfer fluids—ionanofluids—by the incorporation of nanocarbons like diesel soot (DS), camphor soot (CS), carbon nanotubes (CN), and graphene (

Maximizing the detection probabilities of dusky grouse for population monitoring

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Despite its status as a game species in the western USA, rigorous monitoring of dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus populations is limited. Obtaining an adequate number of observations for effective population monitoring of dusky grouse is challenging due to difficult‐to‐reach montane habitats, cryptic behaviors, and limited personnel, time, and funds at

Trends in Ocean S‐Isotopes May Be Influenced by Major LIP Events

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 341-376., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
