The Mineralogy of Shock-Induced Melt Vein in Martian Meteorite Zagami: Shock Pressure and Ejection Mechanism
This is the first report of Post-stishovite was found in zagami meteorite in the maskelynite outside of shock-induced melt vein. The mineralogy assemblages of melt vein, including stishovite, pyroxene and…

Inspiratory Contrast for in Vivo Optical Imaging
We demonstrate the use of inspired oxygen and carbon dioxide as a possible route to increase contrast in optical imaging of cancerous tissue.

Threshold Collision-Induced Dissociation of Hydrogen-Bonded Dimers of Carboxylic Acids
Energy-resolved competitive collision-induced dissociation is used to investigate the proton-bound heterodimer anions of a series of carboxylic acids (formic, acetic, and benzoic acid) and nitrous acid with their conjugate bases.

New Proton Conductive Composite Materials with Inorganic and Styrene Grafted and Sulfonated Vdf/Ctfe Fluoropolymers
A new functionalized and crosslinkable P(VDF-CTFE) (vinylidene fluoride/chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer) was synthesized using functional borane/oxygen initiator and grafted with styrene (St) via atom transfer radical polymerization followed by partial or the…

Strong Surface Diffusion Mediated Glancing-Angle Deposition: Growth, Recrystallization and Reorientation of Tin Nanorods
Different from usual glancing-angle deposition where low surface diffusion is necessary to form nanorods, strong surface diffusion mediated glancing-angle deposition is exemplified by growing tin nanorod films on both silicon…

Formulation and Evaluation of Albumin Microspheres and Its Enteric Coating Using a Spray-Dryer
This study optimized and evaluated the conditions for surface coating of microspheres using a spray-dryer. Four formulations of Bromophenol blue (BPB)-loaded albumin microspheres were prepared using a spray-dryer, cross-linked at…

Electrically Controlled G Factor and Magnetism in Conjugated Metallorganic Molecules
Here we construct model Hamiltonians based on first-principles calculations to describe spins at the ions and π electrons in the ligands.

Progress Toward a Theory for Excess Heat in Metal Deuterides
Here we discuss a theoretical model that consists of sets of two-level systems coupled indirectly through a low-energy oscillator that is off-resonant.

Determination of Indenter-tip Geometry and Indentation Contact Area for Depth-Sensing Indentation Experiments
In this paper we develop a new technique for determining the indenter tip shape using both indentation loads and displacements and direct scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the impressions…
