Adsorption of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances across Molecular Classes: Understanding Adsorption Behavior and Adsorbent Performance

Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have been widely used in industrial and commercial applications because of the exceptional chemical and thermal stability of their C–F bonds and their water- and oil-repellent properties. Some PFASs (hereafter called “specific...

The parent bodies of Ryugu and Ivuna formed before those of other carbonaceous chondrites

Most carbonaceous chondrite (CC) meteorites contain abundant chondrules, millimeter-scale spherical inclusions of previously molten material. Ivuna-type carbonaceous chondrites (CIs) do not contain chondrules, nor do samples of the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu. CIs and Ryugu share...

A Bayesian Approach to Nuclear Spin Relaxation Phenomena in Topological Kondo Insulator SmB 6

In studies of the promising topological Kondo insulator (TKI) candidate SmB 6 , nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements of the spin–lattice relaxation rate, 1/T 1 , have provided crucial insights into this compound: for example, the unique opening of a small hybridization g...
