At the high energy density experimental area (HHT), strongly coupled plasmas are created by the interaction of the SIS heavy ion beams with solid targets. Presently, the generated plasmas have densities close to the solid state, large volumes of several mm and temperatures up to 1 eV. Besides experiments of direct matter heating by heavy ion beams, a complete study of the low entropy shock comp...

High-resolution solid-state (7)Li NMR was used to characterize the structure and dynamics of lithium ion transport in monoclinic Li(3)V(2)(PO(4))(3). Under fast magic-angle spinning (MAS) conditions (25 kHz), three resonances are clearly resolved and assigned to the three unique crystallographic sites. This assignment is based on the Fermi-contact delocalization interaction between the unpaired...

The thermophilic fungus Humicola grisea var. thermoidea secretes extracellular xylanase when grown on solid and in liquid media containing wheat bran and banana plant residue as substrates, respectively. At 55oC, xylanase from the culture filtrate of H. grisea var. thermoidea grown on banana stalk retained 50% of its activity after 28 h of incubation. A xylanase (X2) was isolated from solid sta...

Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) can leapfrog the development of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), enabling them to power electric vehicles and store renewable energy from intermittent sources. Here, a new hybrid Li+ Na+ conducting SSE based on MIL-121 metal-organic framework (MOF) structure is reported. Following synthesis activation MOF, free carboxylic units along 1D pores are functionalized...
