Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) possesses extraordinary potential for solid-state neutron detector applications. This stems from the fact that the boron-10 (10B) isotope has a capture cross-section of 3840 barns for thermal neutrons that is orders of magnitude larger than other isotopes. Epitaxial layers of hBN have bee…

Fe-ZSM-5 zeolites with a Si/Al ratio equal to 25 and 50, comprising 0.4 wt% of Fe and calcined at different temperatures, were used for oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of C2–C4 hydrocarbons. The calcination temperature (873 or 1173 K) slightly influenced hydrocarbon conversion, while it distinctly affected the selecti…

The Red Queen remains (700 A.C.) found at Palenque, México, are examples of cinnabar (HgS) application to royal remains during pre-Hispanic times. The Red Queen remains are those of a ca. 30–35-yr-old female and present a striking similarity to the remains of another Mayan woman found at Copan, Honduras. Thus, coverin…
