Spatial and temporal variation in denitrification and in the denitrifier community in a boreal lake
(Inter Research, 2011)
We investigated the spatial and temporal variation in denitrification rates (isotopepairing
technique, IPT) and in the denitrifier community (examination of gene nirK by denaturinggradient
gel electrophoresis [DGGE] of ...
Precise measurements of half-lives and branching ratios for the ββ mirror transitions in the decay of 23Mg and 27Si
(Springer, 2017)
Half-lives and branching ratios for the two mirror ββ decays of 23Mg and 27Si have been measured at the University of Jyväskylä with the IGISOL facility. The results obtained, T1/2=11.303(3)T1/2=11.303(3) s and ...
DNA Origami-Mediated Substrate Nanopatterning of Inorganic Structures for Sensing Applications
(MyJove Corp., 2019)
Structural DNA nanotechnology provides a viable route for building from the bottom-up using DNA as construction material. The most common DNA nanofabrication technique is called DNA origami, and it allows high-throughput ...
Porous 3D Printed Scavenger Filters for Selective Recovery of Precious Metals from Electronic Waste
(Wiley, 2018)
Selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D printing is used to fabricate highly macroporous ion scavenger filters for recovery of Pd and Pt from electronic waste. The scavengers are printed by using a mixture of polypropylene with ...
Fission yield measurements at IGISOL
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
The fission product yields are an important characteristic of the fission process.
In fundamental physics, knowledge of the yield distributions is needed to better understand
the fission process. For nuclear energy ...
The Importance of Electronic Dimensionality in Multiorbital Radical Conductors
(American Chemical Society, 2019)
The exceptional performance of oxobenzene-bridged bis-1,2,3-dithiazolyls 6 as single-component neutral radical conductors arises from the presence of a low-lying π-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, which reduces the ...
Electron microscopy of gold nanoparticles at atomic resolution
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2014)
Structure determination of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) is necessary for understanding their physical and chemical properties, but only one AuNP larger than 1 nanometer in diameter [a 102–gold atom NP (Au102NP)] has been ...
Quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling strength in β decays
(Jagellonian University, 2018)
The quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling strength, gA, in nuclear β decays is reviewed. The quenching is discussed for both the Gamow–Teller decays and the forbidden β decays of different variants. Both the historical ...
The evolutionary dynamics of adaptive virginity, sex-allocation and altruistic helping in haplodiploid animals
(Wiley; Society for the Study of Evolution, 2018)
In haplodiploids, females can produce sons from unfertilized eggs without mating. However, virgin reproduction is usually considered to be a result of a failure to mate, rather than an adaptation. Here, we build an analytical ...
First Accurate Normalization of the β-delayed α Decay of 16N and Implications for the 12C(α,γ)16O Astrophysical Reaction Rate
(American Physical Society, 2018)
The 12Cðα; γÞ16O reaction plays a central role in astrophysics, but its cross section at energies relevant
for astrophysical applications is only poorly constrained by laboratory data. The reduced α width, γ11, of
the ...
