Autogenous Electron Acceleration by Ion Flow Vortex in Space Plasmas by C. M. Liu, J. B. Cao, Y. Y. Liu, E. A. Kronberg, X. N. Xing, B. N. Zhao, P. W. Daly

“…The accelerated electrons can drive mass and energy transport along local magnetic field lines and serve as a free energy source for broadband electrostatic emissions. Our observations, suggesting that the ion flow vortex can serve as novel electron accelerators, can be fundamentally important for understanding energetic phenomena in the cosmos, such as nonthermal emissions near astrophysical jets and killer electrons in geospace.…”

Regional Exploration and Characterisation of CO2 Storage Prospects in the Utsira-Skade Aquifer, North Viking Graben, North Sea by C. Lloyd, M. Huuse, B. J. Barrett, A. M. W. Newton

“…Although the overall storage capacity of the full aquifer has been estimated based on regional data, it is lacking an integrated assessment of containment and internal heterogeneity, to identify optimal areas for injection and for calculation of site-specific storage capacities. A high-resolution, broadband 3D seismic reflection dataset, full waveform inverted velocity data and 102 exploration wells are utilised to provide a catalogue of CO2 storage prospects in the northern Utsira-Skade Aquifer. …”

β-crystals aied greater energy absorbing ethylene–propylene rubber in polypropylene blends for outstanding low-temperature toughness by Ruimiao Liang, Wenwen Yu, Jiahao Shen, Zhiyi Zhang, Zaifu Lin, Jiayi Wang, Lan Jia, Feng Chen, Yonggang Shangguan, Qiang Zheng

“…The addition of TMB-5 provides numerous nucleation sites that facilitate the β-crystallization of polypropylene, leading to an increased content of β-crystals and a reduction in crystal grain size. Broadband dielectric relaxation spectroscopy shows that the constrained relaxation of EPR near the crystals shifts to higher temperatures with the formation of β-crystals. …”
