The uptake of HNO 3 to deliquescent airborne sea-salt particles (RH = 55%, P = 760 torr, T = 300 K) at concentrations from 2 to 575 ppbv is measured in an aerosol flow tube using 13 N as a tracer. Small particles (≈ 70 nm diameter) are used in order to minimize the effect of diffusion in the gas phase on the mass transfer. Below 100 ppbv, an 5 uptake coefficient (γ upt) of 0.50 ± 0.20 is derive...

There is a growing body of evidence on the role of nitric oxide (NO) in retinal physiology. Recently, interest has developed in the functional role of an alternative redox form of NO, namely nitroxyl (HNO/NO(-)), because it is formed by a number of diverse biochemical reactions. The aim of the present report was to comparatively analyze the effect of HNO and NO on the retinal nitridergic pathwa...

Abstract Host–guest materials exhibit great potential applications as an insensitive high-energy–density explosive and low characteristic signal solid propellant. To investigate the mechanism of improvement energy host–guest explosives by guest molecules, ReaxFF-lg reactive molecular dynamics simulations were performed to calculate thermal decomposition reactions systems ICM-102/HNO 3 , ICM-102...
