Dynamic Active Site Generation on CuO x /γ-Al2O3 Catalysts for CO Oxidation
Abstract Most heterogeneous catalysts undergo dynamic changes under reaction conditions. In this study, the redox properties and dynamic behavior of CuOx/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were characterized using in situ FTIR, quasi-in situ XPS, and HS-LEIS (high-sensitivity low-energy ion scatt...

Isotopic Engineering of Water Reactivity for Stable Aqueous Iron‐Metal Batteries
ABSTRACT The development of aqueous iron‐metal batteries (AIBs) is critically hindered by the severe parasitic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) at the anodes and the resulting structural degradation of the cathode. Moving beyond conventional additive‐based approaches, this work...

Value maximization under present-biased preferences
Abstract We examine a value-maximizing problem involving present-biased behavior, a prevalent and empirically observed psychological phenomenon, in a firm’s strategic decisions on earnings retention, payout, and capital injections. By modeling present-biased preferences using sto...

Experimental and computational investigation of collagen modification in skin chromatic alterations
Skin darkening and yellowing are significant concerns associated with aging, particularly among Asian women. Skin sallowness in aging is influenced by factors such as melanin deposition, dermal glycation, and carbonylation, which alter skin’s optical properties. However, the mech...
