(2020)Accessory mineral thermometry and thermodynamic modelling are fundamental tools for constraining petrogenetic models of granite magmatism. U–Pb geochronology on zircon and monazite from S-type granites emplaced within a ...
-
(2021)Supercontinents signify self-organization in plate tectonics. Over the past ~2 billion years, three major supercontinents have been identified, with increasing age: Pangaea, Rodinia and Columbia. In a prototypal form, a ...
-
(2021)The status of Pannotia as an Ediacaran supercontinent, or even its mere existence as a coherent large landmass, is controversial. The effect of its hypothesized amalgamation is generally ignored in mantle convection models ...
-
(2023)People living with neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and dementia may experience physical impairment, social disengagement, cognitive issues, and emotional disturbances. While qualitative ...
-
(2022)Geopolymer is a synthetic amorphous aluminosilicate material that can be used as an inorganic binder to replace ordinary Portland cement. Geopolymer is produced by mixing aluminosilicate source materials with alkali ...
-
(2020)Calcium hydride (CaH2) is considered an ideal candidate for thermochemical energy storage (thermal battery) due to its high energy density and low cost. Its very high operating temperature and poor cycling stability are ...
-
(2021)Metal boron-hydrogen compounds are considered as promising solid electrolyte candidates for the development of all-solid-state batteries (ASSB), owing to the high ionic conductivity exhibited bycloso- andnido-boranes. In ...
-
(2021)We present a molecular dynamics study of the low-temperature polymorph of silver closo-borate α-Ag2B12H12, which is a promising ionic conductor. By means of 1H and 11B nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, we identified ...
-
(2021)Hydrogen is considered an attractive alternative to fossil fuels, but only a small amount of it is produced from renewable energy, making it not such a clean energy carrier after all. Producing hydrogen through water ...
-
(2022)The effect of adding both Al2O3 and ZrO2 to limestone (CaCO3) to enhance the cyclic stability and reaction kinetics of endothermic CO2 desorption and exothermic CO2 absorption is investigated. The formation of CaZrO3 and ...
