Unifying Observations, Simulations, and Theory for Drizzle Size Distribution Tails

Abstract The onset and rate of drizzle remain open problems in atmospheric physics. This study brings together theory, simulations, and observations to analyze the emergence of power‐law tails in droplet size distributions as a signature of a dynamic steady state with coalescence...

Structure-based TCR-pMHC binding prediction and generalization to unseen peptides

Abstract The interaction between T-cell receptors (TCRs) with the peptide-bound major histocompatibility complex (MHC) intricately impacts the functional specificity of T-cell-mediated adaptive immune response. Consequently, implication in immunotherapy has contributed to the eve...

Tracking the baryon number with nuclear collisions

Baryon quantum number is found to be conserved since baryogenesis in the early Universe. Conventionally, each fractionally charged valence quark is understood to carry one-third of a baryon number. An alternative hypothesis posits that baryon number is instead carried by a baryon...

Covalently Integrated Amorphous Mn x Mo 3 S 13 –GO Chalcocarbogel for High Capacity and Long‐Life Sulfur Equivalent Conversion Electrodes

ABSTRACT Developing long‐life, high‐capacity sulfur‐based electrodes from earth‐abundant elements remains a major challenge because of structural degradation and polysulfide dissolution during multielectron conversion reactions. Here, we report a hybrid amorphous Mn x Mo 3 S 13 –...

Review of Particle Physics *

The Review summarizes much of particle physics and cosmology. Using data from previous editions, plus 3,200 new measurements from 903 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons and the recently discovered Higgs boson, leptons, quarks, mesons, and b...

Oxidation‐Induced Internal Chemical Patterning in Copper–Gold Nanoalloys

ABSTRACT Chemical segregation governs the structural evolution and properties of nanoalloys and, under vacuum or reducing conditions, typically leads to core–shell structures that minimize surface free energy. Here, we show that surface oxidation fundamentally alters this behavio...

Circumventing thermodynamic limitations in converting carbon dioxide into carbon nanotubes via tandem catalysis

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are important materials for electronics and structural composites, but their production still relies on hydrocarbon-based chemical vapor deposition, an energy-intensive and fossil-dependent process, limited by rapid catalyst deactivation. Using CO 2 as a c...
