This study investigates the role of reagent ratio, solvent composition and temperature on solvothermal synthesis MOF-235(Fe) MIL-101(Fe).

We have performed new determinations of sulphur and silicon abundances for a sample of 26 disk stars based on high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectra. The results indicate a solar [S/Fe] for [Fe/H] > −0.3, below which [S/Fe] increases to ∼0.25 dex at [Fe/H] = −1.0. We find that there is a good correlation between [S/H] and [Si/H], indicating the same nucleosynthetic origin of the two elem...

The comparative analysis of the electrochemical deposition of Ni and Ni-Fe nanowires (NWs) into ordered porous alumina templates is presented. The method developed allows for obtaining NWs of 50 ± 5 nm in diameter and 25 μm in length, i.e., with an aspect ratio of 500. XRD data demonstrate the polycrystalline nature of Ni and Ni-Fe in a face-centered cubic close-packed lattice. Both fabricated ...

Introduction: Compositions of the mantle and core of the terrestrial planets are important for us to understand the formation and evolution of the planets. There are two hypotheses on the evolution of the planets. One hypothesis suggests that the different mean densities of the terrestrial planets indicate different Fe/Si ratio in the planets. Because the terrestrial planets have different dist...

H-Point Standard Addition Method (HPSAM) was applied for the simultaneous determination of V(V) and Fe(III). The method is based on the complex formation of V(V) and Fe(III) with chromazurol S (CAS) in acidic media and in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a micellizing agent. Acidic media and the presence of a micellar system improve selectivity and sensitivity. Fe (III) ...

Ultraviolet imaging of the remnant of Supernova 1885 in M31 with the Hubble Space Telescope using the F255W filter on the WFPC2 reveals a dark spot of Fe II absorption at the remnant’s known position in the bulge of M31. The diameter of the absorbing spot is 0. 55 ± 0. 15, slightly smaller than, but consistent with, the 0. 70 ± 0. 05 diameter measured in the higher quality WFPC2 Ca II absorptio...

Iron-functionalized disordered mesoporous silica (FeKIL-2) is a promising, environmentally friendly, cost-effective and highly efficient catalyst for the elimination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from polluted air via catalytic oxidation. In this study, we investigated the type of catalytically active iron sites for different iron concentrations in FeKIL-2 catalysts using advanced charac...

We present results from Tree+SPH simulations of a galaxy cluster, aimed at studying the metal enrichment of the intra–cluster medium (ICM). The simulation code includes a fairly advanced treatment of star formation, as well as the release of energy feedback and detailed yields from both type-II and type-Ia supernovae, also accurately accounting for the lifetimes of different stellar populations...

We review the Galactic chemical evolution of Li and compare these results with recent observational determinations of the lithium isotopic ratio. In particular, we concentrate on so-called standard Galactic cosmic-ray nucleosynthesis in which Li, Be, and B are produced (predominantly) by the inelastic scattering of accelerated protons and α’s off of CNO nuclei in the ambient interstellar medium...

The title compound, [Fe(C44H28N4)(C4H6N2)2]·2C4H6N2, is a six-coordinate Fe(II)-porphyrinate complex with the metal located on a center of inversion and coordinated by two axial 1-methyl-imidazole ligands; the complex crystallizes as a 1-methyl-imidazole disolvate. The 1-methyl-imidazole group bonded to the Fe(II) atom [occupancy ratio 0.789 (4):0.211 (4)] and the unbound 1-methyl-imidazole mol...
