Studies that investigate the environmental health risks to Cairo residents invariably conclude that lead is one of the area's major health hazards. The Cairo Air Improvement Project (CAIP), which was implemented by a team led by Chemonics International, funded by USAID in partnership with the Egyptian Environmental Affairs Agency (EEAA), started developing a lead emission inventory for the grea...

Using ab initio simulations and high-pressure experiments in a diamond anvil cell, we show that alumina (Al(2)O(3)) adopts the CaIrO(3)-type structure above 130 GPa. This finding substantially changes the picture of high-pressure behavior of alumina; in particular, we find that perovskite structure is never stable for Al(2)O(3) at zero Kelvin. The CaIrO(3)-type phase suggests a reinterpretation...
