The chemical coupling between moist CO oxidation and gas-phase potassium sulfation (open access)

The chemical coupling between moist CO oxidation and gas-phase potassium sulfation

Article discusses how the chemical coupling between moist CO oxidation and transformation of gaseous potassium salts (KCl or KOH) in the presence and absence of SO2 was investigated experimentally and through chemical kinetic modeling. Analysis of the calculations indicates that sulfation pathways in the model involving KOSO3 contribute to the overprediction, but both the thermodynamic properties and rate constants in the model involve significant uncertainties and more work is required to resolve the discrepancy.

Description of making épob

Aijoni Medok demonstrates the process of making épob, a medicine that is added to apong (rice beer). Leaves of medicinal plants including ríkom, injari, and tiːné anné are dried and pounded in kiːpar (large mortar and pestle). Then, the mixture is formed into balls and dried in the sun. Finally, these balls are squeezed with hands, and the powder is spread in the apong and mixed into the grains used to make apong.

Description of separating husks from paddy leaves

Purnima Medok demonstrates how to separate the husks from paddy leaves and describes the cultivation process. She says the paddies are sown during the month of ahar (June). After harvesting, the men carry the paddy to the kumsung (a house to keep the harvest). Next, the paddy leaves are separated through the process demonstrated here before it can be dried and later milled. They grow multiple rice varieties including bor zangiya, bora sokua, and ampi. She explains that mixing varieties together enhances the flavor. She especially enjoys feeding her children and grandchildren with rice she has stored in tin boxes.

Description of tea plantation methods, part 3

Bipul Medok describes the functions of the siris trees planted between tea plants. They support the black pepper plants' vines, and produce leaves which are are used as an organic fertilizer for the tea plants. He says the wood of the siris tree can also be used as firewood, and may be suitable for making furniture.

Traditional narrative about monkey tricks

Purnima Medok tells a traditional narrative about an elderly couple who meet a troop of monkeys while planting taro in a field. The monkeys advise the couple that the taro tubers had to be boiled first, peeled, sweetened, and covered with leaves before putting into the soil. They followed the monkeys' instructions and the troop came again to check on the taro. That night, the monkeys took the responsibility of looking after the planted taro. Taking advantage of the situation, the monkeys ate the planted taros and left feces all over the field. The elderly couple gets revenge by tricking and killing the monkeys.

Elucidating Cyclic Fatty Acid Biosynthesis and Compartmentalization to Improve Cottonseed Value (open access)

Elucidating Cyclic Fatty Acid Biosynthesis and Compartmentalization to Improve Cottonseed Value

Data management plan for the grant "Elucidating Cyclic Fatty Acid Biosynthesis and Compartmentalization to Improve Cottonseed Value." Cotton is an important oilseed crop in the U.S. economy. Cotton seed and other vegetative tissues produce unusual chemicals called cyclic fatty acids that have wide-ranging potential uses from high-value industrial properties to nutrition-oriented uses. This project focuses on identifying genes that contribute to the production and storage of these high value bioproducts.

Plexcitonic interactions in spherical and bi-pyramidical Au nanoparticles with monolayer WSe₂

Article describes how plasmons associated with zero-dimensional (0D) metal nanoparticles and their synergistic interactions with excitons in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors offer opportunities for remarkable spectral tunability not otherwise evident in the pristine parent materials, which necessitates an in-depth study elucidating the nature of the plasmonic and excitonic interactions, jointly referred to as plexcitons in order to understand the foundational aspects of the light–matter interactions in hybrid 0D–2D systems. The authors examine the plexcitonic interactions of van der Waals (vdWs) hybrid structures composed of 2D WSe2 and 0D Au nanoparticles (Au-NPs) in their spherical (Au-Sp) and bi-pyramidical (Au-BP) architectures, which demonstrates that geometry-mediated response of the AuNPs provides another degree of freedom to modulate the carrier photodynamics in WSe₂.
