Abstract The time delay between lightning return stroke current and the resultant luminosity was measured for 22 return strokes in eight lightning flashes triggered by the rocket‐and‐wire technique during the summer of 2014 in Florida. The current‐to‐luminosity delay measured at the channel base at the 20% amplitude l…

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In multiple sclerosis, gadolinium enhancement is used to classify lesions as active. Regarding the need for a standardized and accurate method for detection of multiple sclerosis activity, we compared 2D-spin-echo with 3D-gradient-echo T1WI for the detection of gadolinium-enhancing MS lesions.…

Ion cyclotron range of frequency (ICRF) heating is foreseen as an integral component of the initial ITER operation. The status of ICRF preparations for ITER and supporting research were updated in the 2007 [Gormezano et al., Nucl. Fusion 47, S285 (2007)] report on the ITER physics basis. In this report, we summarize p…

Plastic waste gasification is one of the most promising techniques to use nondecomposable solid waste and to produce syngas. A CFD-based Equivalent Reactor Network (ERN) model was developed for simulation of polyethylene gasification in a designed pilot-scale conical spouted bed gasifier. The CFD-based ERN model was e…

A new hyper-branched water-soluble polymer was synthesized by reacting β-cyclodextrin with pyromellitic dianhydride beyond the critical conditions that allow the phenomenon of gelation to occur. The molar ratio between the monomers is a crucial parameter that rules the gelation process. Nevertheless, the concentration…

We present a detailed characterization of fibronectin (FN) adsorption and cell adhesion on poly(ethyl acrylate) (PEA) and poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA), two polymers with very similar physicochemical properties and chemical structure, which differ in one single methyl group in the lateral chain of the polymer. The globu…

Hydrogen production in photoelectrochemical cells constitutes an important avenue toward carbon-free fuel. The most convenient process for hydrogen production is the splitting of water molecules, which necessitates a catalytic reaction involving a semiconductor. Here, we introduce a framework for the study of photocat…

γ-Cyclodextrin can assemble in the presence of KOH or RbOH into metal–organic frameworks (CD–MOFs) with applications in gas adsorption and environmental remediation. Crystalline CD–MOFs are grown by vapor diffusion and their reversible adsorption of CO 2 (g) is analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The exper…
