Abstract The time‐related cumulated noise charges extracted from the noise signals between two “identical” crevice electrodes yield a direct quantitative easy‐to‐interpret information on time‐related corrosion intensities in the crevice. A new software‐assisted method of noise data evaluation allows a “counting of cou…

The luminescence of synthetic rare earth (RE)-doped zircons and three natural zircons has been studied by ion beam excitation (ion beam luminescence or ionoluminescence (IL)). Luminescence results from electronic transitions between energy levels of the RE ions, giving emissions with characteristic energies. Studies o…

An essential property of combustion catalysts is long-term (>8000 h) stability at high temperatures in an environment (approximately 1 atm of both oxygen and water vapor) that aggressively promotes sintering of the supporting oxide and coarsening of the active component. Extrapolation of accelerated coarsening rate me…

Whereas tetrahydrofolate is an essential cofactor in all bacteria, the gene that encodes the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) could not be identified in many of the bacteria whose genomes have been entirely sequenced. In this communication we show that the halophilic archaea Halobacterium salinarum and Haloarcula…

The fundamental principle underlying the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO x to N 2 is the promotion of reactions of reductant with NO x over competing, and thermodynamically preferred, reactions with a large excess of O 2 . A similar competition between NO x and O 2 exists in the noncatalytic, thermal reducti…
