Channeling of protons through BN nanotubes
(Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2015)
In this paper we study the angular and spatial distributions of protons channeled through boron-nitride (BN) nanotubes. The BN nanotubes have very similar structures like carbon nanotubes, but they are more thermally and ...
Experimental evidence for simultaneous relaxation processes in super spin glass gamma-Fe2O3 nanoparticle system
(Journal of Nanoparticle Research, 2015)
Spherical gamma-Fe2O3 nanoparticles with the narrow size distribution of (5 +/- 1) nm were synthesized by the method of thermal decomposition from iron acetyl acetonate precursor. The existence of super spin-glass state ...
Density functional theory guide to structure and thermodynamics of metal hydrides - Case study of (Ti, Zr, Hf)Ni intermetallic compounds
(International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 2015)
Thermodynamics of hydride formation is one of the key properties of metal-hydrogen system and determines its applicability. Therefore, numerous researches are focused on the use of first-principles calculations as the ...
Modeling of the reactions of a calcium-based sorbent with sulfur dioxide
(Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2015)
A mathematical model of calcium sorbent reactions for the simulation of sulfur dioxide reduction from pulverized coal combustion flue gasses was developed, implemented within a numerical code and validated against available ...
Ab initio studies of the structural, elastic, electronic and thermal properties of NiTi2 intermetallic
(Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids, 2015)
First principles calculations were performed in the framework of the density functional theory (DFF) using the Full Potential-Linear Augment Plane Wave method (FP-LAPW) within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) ...
Myeloperoxidase Inhibitors as Potential Drugs
(Current Drug Metabolism, 2015)
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an important member of the haem peroxidase - cyclooxygenase superfamily. This enzyme is physiologically expressed in circulating neutrophils, monocytes and some tissue macrophages including microglia. ...
Aerosol-assisted processing of hierarchically organised TiO2 nanoparticles
(International Journal of Materials and Product Technology, 2015)
Hierarchically assembled TiO2 nanoparticles into larger spherical ones were obtained using aerosol-assisted processing method. Unagglomerated particles with the mean size of 440 nm were obtained from colloidal solution of ...
Multiport waveguide couplers with periodic energy exchange
(Optics Letters, 2015)
In this Letter, a multiport directional optical coupler based on periodic energy exchange in a linear waveguide array is proposed. The periodic power transfer is achieved by choosing waveguide separations that render ...
Differential regulation of catecholamine synthesis and transport in rat adrenal medulla by fluoxetine treatment
(Anais de Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2015)
We have recently shown that chronic fluoxetine treatment acted significantly increasing plasma norepinephrine and epinephrine concentrations both in control and chronically stressed adult male rats. However, possible effects ...
Study of Simultaneous Radionuclide Sorption by Mixture Design Methodology
(Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research, 2015)
The problem of simultaneous removal of Co2+, Sr2+, and Cs+ ions from aqueous solutions was addressed using oxide, phosphate, and aluminosilicate materials from economical and abundant sources. Competition between cations ...
