Electronic screening strongly renormalizes the linear bands that occur near the Dirac crossing in graphene. The single bare Dirac crossing is split into two individual Dirac-like points, which are separated in energy but still at zero momentum relative to the K point. A diamond-like structure occurs in between as a re…

The frequent presence of Fe chlorosis in plants grown on calcareous soils is influenced by the forms of soil Fe present and their contents. Previous studies suggest that temporary soil flooding may increase Fe phytoavailability. To study flooding effects in relation to microbial activity in greater depth, we incubated…

Despite substantial progress in the field of vascular tissue engineering over the past decades, transition to human models has been rather challenging. The limited replicative life spans of human adult vascular cells, and their slow rate of collagenous matrix production in vitro, have posed important hurdles in the de…

Decreasing the constriction size and residence time in hydrodynamic cavitation is predicted to give increased hot spot temperatures at bubble collapse and increased radical formation rate. Cavitation in a 100 × 100 μm 2 rectangular micro channel and in a circular 750 μm diameter milli channel has been investigated wit…

Die kationische Spezies in Heteropolysäuren und deren Metallsalzen entscheidet über die Z/E-Selektivität der Meyer-Schuster-Umlagerung von Propargylalkoholen (siehe Schema). Bemerkenswert ist, dass auch nach Reaktionen bei hohen Temperaturen von 50 °C hoch selektiv die thermodynamisch ungünstigeren Z-α,β-ungesättigten…
