The density dependence of the diffusive rotational and center-of-mass dynamics of 2-methyl-pyridine is investigated by means of the concurrent use of quasielastic neutron scattering and molecular dynamics simulations. The dependence of both translation and rotational diffusion coefficients shows a distinctive change of slope with increasing density taking place about rho=0.975 g/cm3. Such a change in the dynamics can be related to observations made in other liquids composed of oblate-spheroidal particles.

A series of 2-pyridone[α]-fused BOPHYs - were prepared via a two-step procedure involving the preparation of enamine, followed by an intramolecular heterocyclization reaction. In addition to being fully conjugated with the BOPHY core pyridone fragment, BOPHYs and have a pyridine group connected to the BOPHY core via one- or two -CH- groups. New BOPHYs were characterized by spectroscopy as well as X-ray diffraction.

Background: MRI offers quantification of proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and tissue characteristics with T1 mapping. The influence of age, sex, and the potential confounding effects of fat on T1 values in skeletal muscle in healthy adults are insufficiently known.
Purpose: To determine the accuracy and repeatability of a saturation-recovery chemical-shift encoded multiparametric approach (SR-CSE) for quantification of T1 and muscle fat content, and establish normative values (age, sex) from a healthy cohort.
Impact of Long Well Screens on Monitoring of the Freshwater-Saltwater Transition Zone.

Deep monitoring wells with long screens crossing the transition zone between freshwater and saltwater are often used in coastal areas to characterize fresh groundwater resources and the depth of saline groundwater. However, past studies have demonstrated that long-screen wells can lead to biased observations of the transition zone, since vertical flow within the borehole can modify the shape and elevation of the transition zone in and around the borehole compared to undisturbed conditions without a well. Here, field observations and variable-density numerical flow simulations are used to evaluate, under natural flow conditions, how the installation of long-screen wells can provide time-varying biased observations of the freshwater-saltwater transition zone, and how various aquifer and well parameters affect the magnitude of these biases.

Electrochemically grown copper nanoclusters (CuNCs: < 3 nm) from single-atom catalysts have recently attracted intensive attention as electrocatalysts for CO2 and CO reduction reaction (CO2RR/CORR) because they exhibit distinct product selectivity compared with conventional Cu nanoparticles (typically larger than 10 nm). Herein, we conducted a detailed investigation into the size dependence of CuNCs on selectivity for multicarbon (C2+) production in CORR. These nanoclusters were electrochemically grown from single Cu atoms dispersed on covalent triazine frameworks (Cu-CTFs).
