AI Article Synopsis

  • - The paper proposes a unique set of variables to derive a kinetic equation for energy density in nonisotropic systems, focusing on internal gravity waves and other wave types.
  • - A second quadratic invariant is identified, simplifying the kinetic equation and resulting in additional conservation laws for resonant interactions.
  • - The research reveals an inverse energy cascade for internal gravity waves, indicating that energy moves from smaller scales to larger scales in real-world situations.

Article Abstract

We highlight a noncanonical yet natural choice of variables for an efficient derivation of a kinetic equation for the energy density in nonisotropic systems, including internal gravity waves on a vertical plane, inertial, and Rossby waves. The existence of a second quadratic invariant simplifies the kinetic equation and leads to extra conservation laws for resonant interactions. We analytically determine the scaling of the radial turbulent energy spectrum. Our findings suggest the existence of an inverse energy cascade of internal gravity waves, from small to large scales, in practically relevant scenarios.

The development of copper-based materials with a high efficiency and low cost is desirable for use in iodine (I) remediation. Herein, Cu-nanoparticles-functionalized, ZIF-8 (Zeolite Imidazole Framework-8)-derived, nitrogen-doped carbon composites (Cu@Zn-NC) were synthesized by ball milling and pyrolysis processes. The as-prepared composites were characterized using SEM, BET, XRD, XPS, and FT-IR analyses.

A kinetic exchange model is developed to investigate wealth distribution in a market. The model incorporates a value function that captures the agents' psychological traits, governing their wealth allocation based on behavioral responses to perceived potential losses and returns. To account for the impact of transaction frequency on wealth dynamics, a non-Maxwellian collision kernel is introduced.

Modeling inorganic glasses requires an accurate representation of interatomic interactions, large system sizes to allow for intermediate-range structural order, and slow quenching rates to eliminate kinetically trapped structural motifs. Neither first principles-based nor force field-based molecular dynamics (MD) simulations satisfy these three criteria unequivocally. Herein, we report the development of a machine learning potential (MLP) for a classic glass, B2O3, which meets these goals well.

The sluggish water oxidation reaction (WOR) is considered the kinetic bottleneck of artificial photosynthesis due to the complicated four-electron and four-proton transfer process. Herein, we find that the WOR can be kinetically nearly barrierless on four representative photoanodes (i.e.
