Comment on "A hydrogen-rich early Earth atmosphere".
Tian et al. (Reports, 13 May 2005, p. 1014) proposed a hydrogen-rich early atmosphere with slow hydrogen escape from a cold thermosphere. However, their model neglects the ultraviolet absorption of all gases other than H2. The model also neglects Earth's magnetic field, which affects the temperature and density of ions and promotes nonthermal escape of neutral hydrogen.
متن کاملA hydrogen-rich early Earth atmosphere.
We show that the escape of hydrogen from early Earth's atmosphere likely occurred at rates slower by two orders of magnitude than previously thought. The balance between slow hydrogen escape and volcanic outgassing could have maintained a hydrogen mixing ratio of more than 30%. The production of prebiotic organic compounds in such an atmosphere would have been more efficient than either exogeno...
متن کاملResponse to ‘‘Comment on ‘Theoretical evaluation of hydrogen storage
In our recent paper, we tried to rationally understand previous results of modeling hydrogen adsorption in pure single-walled carbon nanotubes ~SWNTs!, including the results of Cheng et al., by doing simpler calculations that a large percentage of the community can perform and check. For this purpose all the raw data of our calculations were put on the web. Cheng et al.’s comments do not seem t...
متن کاملDetection of oxygen traces in nitrogen and hydrogen-rich atmosphere
Tin oxide sensors are evaluated to detect traces of oxygen in the range 0–100 ppm both in nitrogen and hydrogen (4.5 vol% H2 in N2) atmospheres. In nitrogen, significant relative responses to oxygen are measured at 623 K and 723 K. However, at lower temperature, 523 K, the response strongly decreases. In the presence of hydrogen, on the contrary, interesting responses are measured at 523 K. At ...
متن کاملAuthor Response to Comment on "Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning: A Case Series in North Iran"
Dear Editor; I wish to thank the authors for their careful comment (1), on our short report entitled “Aluminum Phosphide Poisoning: A Case Series in North Iran” (2). Unfortunately, as we were excited to display the findings of our series, some facts were missed from the methods of the article. The results presented in our series was collected from eight patients with definitive aluminum phosp...
