Worldwide research activity at the nanoscale is triggering the appearance of new, and
frequently surprising, materials properties in which the increasing importance of surface and …

Samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu were brought to Earth by the Hayabusa2
spacecraft. We analyzed 17 Ryugu samples measuring 1 to 8 millimeters. Carbon dioxide …

Without a protective atmosphere, space-exposed surfaces of airless Solar System bodies
gradually experience an alteration in composition, structure and optical properties through a …

High‐entropy sulfides (HESs) containing 5 equiatomic transition metals (M), with different M:
S ratios, are prepared by a facile one‐step mechanochemical approach. Two new types of …

Abstract The Zn/MnO 2 battery is safe, low cost and comes with a high energy density
comparable to Li-ion batteries. However, irreversible spinel phases formed at the MnO 2 …

Transition metal L2, 3 electron energy-loss spectra for a wide range of V-, Mn-and Fe-based
oxides were recorded and carefully analyzed for their correlation with the formal oxidation …

Core level spectroscopy has become a powerful tool in the study of electronic states in
solids. From fundamental aspects to the most recent developments, Core Level …

The Earth has cooled over the past 4.5 billion years (Gyr) as a result of surface heat loss and
declining radiogenic heat production. Igneous geochemistry has been used to understand …

Electrochemical performance of lithium ion batteries is associated with structural and
chemical stability of electrode materials. In the case of nickel-rich layered cathode materials …
