Giant increase in cross-magnetic-field transport rate as an electron-positron plasma cools (open access)

Giant increase in cross-magnetic-field transport rate as an electron-positron plasma cools

The article focuses on a study of an electron-positron plasma in thermal equilibrium within a uniform magnetic field using a classical trajectory Monte Carlo simulation. The cross-magnetic-field single-particle diffusion coefficient is evaluated as a function of the magnetic field strength and plasma temperature. The transport rate is found to increase by many orders of magnitude as the plasma temperature is lowered, for a magnetic field strength of 1 T. The sharp dependence on temperature is due to electrons and positrons becoming temporarily correlated and drifting across the magnetic field before dissociating.

A covalently linked nickel(II) porphyrin–ruthenium(II) tris(bipyridyl) dyad for efficient photocatalytic water oxidation (open access)

A covalently linked nickel(II) porphyrin–ruthenium(II) tris(bipyridyl) dyad for efficient photocatalytic water oxidation

Article describes how photocatalytic water splitting into H2 and O2 has attracted significant scientific interest for solar energy conversion applications during the last two decades. Authors of the article further elaborate that One of the half-reactions of this process, water oxidation, is known to be the key step in natural and artificial photosynthesis to convert and store solar energy.
