We investigate the influence of morphology and size on the vibrational properties of disordered clusters of colloidal particles with attractive interactions. Spectral features of the vibrational modes are found to depend strongly on the average number of nearest neighbors, NN, but only weakly on the number of particles in each glassy cluster. In particular, the median phonon frequency, ω(med), ...

Neural Networks (NN) hold the potential for improving a variety of tasks in remote sensing and image processing. They represent a different approach to problems, as they do not rely on statistical relationships. Instead, neural networks adaptively estimate continuous functions from data without specifying mathematically how outputs depend on inputs. This paper evaluates the effect of metrics se...

A silver-catalyzed cascade conversion of modular alkyne-1,n-diols and carbon dioxide has been developed allowing for the selective formation keto-functionalized cyclic carbonates. The protocol is characterized by its operational simplicity, excellent scope carbonate-based heterocycles, mild reaction conditions. In situ IR studies, control experiments, detailed computational analysis these manif...
