We show how a dynamical systems approach can, somewhat unexpectedly, be relevant in the quantum dynamics featuring oscillations and escape in the Morse potential. We compare the dynamics resulting from the approach with the results obtained from a direct numerical integration of the relevant Schrödinger equation to support our claim. An interesting finding of the numerical investigation is the marked increase in the probability of obtaining a significant fraction (more than 50%) of the wave packet in the classically forbidden range beyond a critical energy of the packet.

Myocardial infarction is caused by coronary artery thrombosis in a ruptured or unstable atherosclerotic plaque. Despite the emphasis on known triggering factors, such as hypertension and dyslipidemia, adverse events following MI, such as recurrence and mortality, are still high.

We reported the remarkable performance of a transition metal-based electrocatalyst, Fe(III)(PLY) (where PLY-H = 9-hydroxyphenalenone), for electrochemical NRR. In an acidic electrolyte, Fe(PLY) catalyst demonstrates remarkable performance, achieving a high faradaic efficiency (FE) of 43.

We report a significant improvement in the electrocatalytic performance upon compositing Ru with a very trace amount of Pt. In particular, Ru nanoparticles were derived from a Ru-Prussian blue analogue (Ru PBA) and composited with (0.
