Molecular-Dynamics Simulation of Self-Diffusion of Molecular Hydrogen in X-Type Zeolite by Xiaoming Du

“…The results indicate that in the temperature range of 77–293 K and the pressure range of 10–2700 kPa, the self-diffusion coefficients are found to range from 1.61 × 10−9 m2·s−1 to 3.66 × 10−8 m2·s−1 which are in good agreement with the experimental values from the quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) and pulse field gradients nuclear magnetic resonance (PFG NMR) measurements. …”

Star shearing season: transient signals in wave-like dark matter experiments from black hole formation by Arturo de Giorgi, Joerg Jaeckel

“…Abstract Ordinary matter coupled to light weakly interacting bosons can lead to the formation of a macroscopic bosonic field in the vicinity of large matter concentrations such as ordinary or neutron stars. When these objects are turned into black holes due to a supernova or a binary merger this “hair” could be “shorn” off. …”

Kinetic origin of hysteresis and the strongly enhanced reversible barocaloric effect by regulating the atomic coordination environment by Zi-Bing Yu, Hou-Bo Zhou, Feng-Xia Hu, Jian-Tao Wang, Fei-Ran Shen, Lun-Hua He, Zheng-Ying Tian, Yi-Hong Gao, Bing-Jie Wang, Yuan Lin, Yue Kan, Jing Wang, Yun-Zhong Chen, Ji-Rong Sun, Tong-Yun Zhao, Bao-Gen Shen

“…First-principles calculations demonstrate that substituting In atoms at Ge sites rather than Co sites results in a lower energy barrier, indicating a narrower hysteresis for the former. Combining neutron powder diffraction (NPD) with magnetic and calorimetric measurements completely verified the theoretical prediction. …”
