The crystal structure and magnetic properties of CeNiH(3.7) were studied by means of powder x-ray diffraction, specific heat, and dc and ac magnetization techniques. It was established that hydrogenation stabilizes the 4f(1) state of Ce and turns CeNi-H into a dilute Kondo system with T(K) = 3.7 K. The Kondo screening in CeNiH(3.7) is suppressed by the applied magnetic field, although it still affects the properties of CeNiH(3.7) at 14 T, as indicated by the enhanced γ-coefficient of electronic specific heat, which remains more than twice as large as in the precursor compound CeNi. Its zero-field value is as high as 1890 mJ (mol K(2))(-1). Hydrogenation acts primarily as the negative pressure agent in CeNiH(3.7), while the role of H-metal bonding is secondary.

Identifying and quantifying the dominant factors influencing heavy metal (HM) pollution sources are essential for maintaining soil ecological health and implementing effective pollution control measures. This study analyzed soil HM samples from 53 different land use types in Jiaozuo City, Henan Province, China. Pollution sources were identified using Absolute Principal Component Score (APCS), with 8 anthropogenic factors, 9 natural factors, and 4 soil physicochemical properties mapped using Geographic Information System (GIS) kernel density estimation.

This study aimed to investigate the potential protective properties of a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbal product, Siraitia grosvenorii granules (SGG) against PM2.5-induced lung injury, as well as their active constituents and underlying mechanisms. The chemical composition of SGG, such as wogonin (MOL000173), luteolin (MOL000006), nobiletin (MOL005828), naringenin (MOL004328), acacetin (MOL001689), were identified via ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-Q Exactive (UHPLC-QE) Orbitrap/MS.

Objective: The extent of resection (EOR) and postoperative residual tumor (RT) volume are prognostic factors in glioblastoma. Calculations of EOR and RT rely on accurate tumor segmentations. Raidionics is an open-access software that enables automatic segmentation of preoperative and early postoperative glioblastoma using pretrained deep learning models.

The mechanism of the emulsion polymerization of styrene to polystyrene nanoparticles (PSNPs) remains a subject of debate. Herein, a series of reaction parameters with different surfactant concentrations, monomer contents, temperatures, and equilibration times were investigated to understand the formation mechanism of PSNPs, which demonstrate a correlation between the properties of PSNPs and the mesostructure of the premix. Cooling the model systems with self-emulsifying nanodroplets (SENDs) in the early reaction stages resulted in the hollow polystyrene spheres (H-PSSs), ruptured PSNPs, and dandelion-like PSNPs, further indicating that the oil nanodroplets are the key sites for the formation of PSNPs.

Reline, which is composed of choline chloride and urea in a molar ratio of 1:2, is the first and most extensively studied deep eutectic solvent (DES). In certain applications, reline is blended with organic solvents, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in most cases, to gain improved properties. Therefore, it is crucial to have a profound understanding of the impact of DMSO on the dynamics and structures of the species in the binary mixtures.
