Mechanistic Insights Into Sustainable Catalytic Pyrolysis of Biomass‐Derived Ferulic Acid: The Role of Alumina Regeneration

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Surface‐bound ferulate phenolate complexes undergo styrene‐like polymerization on alumina, yielding a polymeric carbonaceous layer that progressively transforms into polyaromatic carbon domains with concomitant release of aromatic products, while parallel surface‐assisted decarboxylation produces 4‐vinylguaiacol. ABSTRACT A fundamental understanding of

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

Synthesis of Single‐Crystalline Ni‐Rich Cathodes for Lithium‐Ion Batteries With Superior High‐Voltage Stability by Mo/Nb Dual Doping

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A novel synthesis method of single‐crystalline LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (NCA) is introduced, involving the stripping of grain boundaries from polycrystalline NCA (PC‐NCA) during Mo/Nb co‐doping. Mo doping near the grain surface significantly reduces parasitic interface reactions and inhibits the excessive growth of CEI films, while Nb doping within the ...

Bioinspired Flexible and Stretchable Coil Structure from Ti3C2Tx MXene/AgNPs‐Functionalized Piezoelectric Nanofibers for Enhanced Energy Harvesting

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Ti3C2Tx MXene and Ag nanoparticles are embedded into piezoelectric nanofibers to form a stretchable, self‐powered coil that converts mechanical deformation into electrical energy. The device enables controllable power output during stretching and release while maintaining a compact and lightweight architecture, making it suitable for miniaturized ...

Multiepoch Observations of the Nearby Spiral Galaxy NGC 3938 with the Chandra X-Ray Observatory

The Astronomical Journal
We present an analysis of two epochs of ACIS observations of the SA(s)c spiral galaxy NGC 3938 with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The total exposure time of the observations was 95 ks, with a limiting unabsorbed luminosity of ≈10 ^38 erg s ^−1 assuming ...

Polycarbazole–NiOOH Interfacial Engineering of BiVO4 Photoanodes for Efficient and Stable Solar Water Splitting

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A π‐conjugated carbazole (p‐CBZ) layer is electro‐polymerized on BiVO4 to form a p–n heterojunction that enhances charge separation and suppresses surface recombination, while a NiOOH co‐catalyst accelerates oxygen evolution kinetics. The synergistic BVO/p‐CBZ/NiOOH photoanode delivers a high photocurrent density and long‐term stability for efficient ...

X-Ray Polarized View of the Accretion Geometry in the X-Ray Binary Circinus X-1

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Cir X-1 is a neutron star X-ray binary characterized by strong variations in flux during its eccentric ∼16.6 day orbit. There are also strong variations in the spectral state, and it has historically shown both atoll and Z state properties.

Materials and Music: Selective Imperfection as a Generative Framework for Analysis, Creativity and Discovery

Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.
Vibrations in matter, from spider webs to molecules, water to flames, share a grammar with music. We propose that creativity emerges when constraints force expansion beyond existing possibilities. Selective imperfection restores balance, enabling invention.
