MUSEQuBES: Connecting H i Absorption with Lyα Emitters at z ≈ 3.3 by Eshita Banerjee, Sowgat Muzahid, Joop Schaye, Jérémy Blaizot, Nicolas Bouché, Sebastiano Cantalupo, Sean D. Johnson, Jorryt Matthee, Anne Verhamme

“…Additionally, all galaxies associated with Lyman-limit systems have impact parameters >50 pkpc from the quasar sightlines, suggesting that true absorber hosts may be too faint to detect. The LAEs show an overall H i covering fraction ( f _c (H i )) of ≈88% for a threshold ${{\rm{log}}}_{10}(N/{{\rm{cm}}}^{-2})$ (H i ) = 15. …”

Tailoring heat-resistant phases with strengthening effects by compound additions of zirconium, yttrium and silicon in dilute Al-Sc-(Zr)-(Y)-(Si) alloys by Kai Wen, Xiwu Li, Zhihui Li, Qilong Liu, He Yin, Wei Xiao, Guanjun Gao, Kai Zhu, Yanan Li, Lizhen Yan, Hongwei Yan, Guohui Shi, Mingyang Yu, Ying Li, Hongwei Liu, Yongan Zhang, Baiqing Xiong

“…The formed (Al,Si)3(Sc,Zr,Y) particle is coherent with the matrix and possesses a shell of Zr atom and a core containing most Sc atom and small amounts of Y and Si atoms, the precipitation is dramatically promoted by formation energy reduction from the substitution of Y for Sc and Zr atoms and Si for Al atoms during precipitation formation.…”
