HUNGA-TONGA-HUNGA-HA’PAI VOLCANIC ERUPTION/EXPLOSION AND TSUNAMIS OF 14-15 JANUARY 2022 – Overview and Analysis [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2022 The explosive eruption/collapse of the submarine portion of the volcano Hunga-Tonga- Hunga-Ha'apai (HT-HH) on the Tonga Kermadec volcanic arc in the southwest Pacific on 15 January 2022 occurred at the end of many weeks of activity. It was a truly global

Shallow very-low-frequency earthquakes accompany slow slip events in the Nankai subduction zone
Nature Communications, 2018 Slow earthquakes are now increasingly recognised to occur at plate boundaries globally. Here, the authors examine seafloor observational data from the Nankai trough and find that very-low-frequency events and slow-slip events frequently occur together ...

EVALUATION OF TSUNAMI SOURCE MECHANISMS ALONG THE TONGA TRENCH AND VOLCANIC ARC – Case Study: Earthquake and Tsunami of 29 September 2009 [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2022 The present report provides an evaluation of the tectonics of the upper part of the Tonga Trench and Volcanic Arc Region. The overall tectonics of the region are dominated by the convergence of the Pacific and Australia plates.

Self‐Assembly of Organic–Inorganic Copolymers Toward Bio‐Inspired Cementitious Composites
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Organic–inorganic copolymerization of calcium silicate hydrate and thioctic acid produces a self‐organized nanocomposite inspired by the disordered collagen–mineral architecture of trabecular bone. The resulting material combines a compressive strength above 300 MPa with intrinsic physical reprocessibility, retaining over 80% of its strength and energy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Chemical vapor deposition produces large‐grain, phase‐pure CsPbBr3 films (grains up to 35 µm) with Drude‐like terahertz photoconductivity and twofold higher carrier mobility versus spin‐coated references. These microstructural advances translate into photodetectors with a detectivity of 8.4 × 1012 Jones, dark current below 1 pA cm−2, X‐ray sensitivity ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Controlled Pt–Pt fine structure in square‐planar Pt(II) complexes governs metal–metal‐to‐ligand charge‐transfer (MMLCT) state formation, exciton dynamics, and organic light‐emitting diode performance. Short Pt–Pt contacts in Pt(fppz)2 enable coherent metal–metal coupling, sub‐microsecond emission and an external quantum efficiency of 29%, whereas ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Niobium nitride (NbN) broadband plasmonic metasurface absorbers provide an efficient platform for solar‐energy conversion through hot‐carrier injection. Quasi‐epitaxial NbN features a low work function of 4.0 eV, reducing the interfacial injection barrier and facilitating charge transfer into adjacent photocatalysts.
