Metastable-state photoacid (mPAH) has become a common tool for controlling and driving chemical processes with light. However, previously developed mPAHs could not be used for reversible protonation of strong bases, including many common amines and heterocycles. In this work, we developed a novel mPAH using benzimidazole as the structural moiety with the active proton. The very low dark acidity of the photoacid avoids the protonation of strong bases in the absence of irradiation. Absorption spectroscopy and NMR studies showed that the photoacid could be paired with NEt and DMAP and underwent reversible photoreaction and proton transfer. This new type of photoacid allows the photocontrol of functional materials with strong proton acceptors.

Z boson events at the Large Hadron Collider can be selected with high purity and are sensitive to a diverse range of QCD phenomena. As a result, these events are often used to probe the nature of the strong force, improve Monte Carlo event generators, and search for deviations from standard model predictions. All previous measurements of Z boson production characterize the event properties using a small number of observables and present the results as differential cross sections in predetermined bins.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is frequently used to monitor disease progression in multiple sclerosis (MS). This study aims to systematically evaluate the correlation between MRI measures and histopathological changes, including demyelination, axonal loss, and gliosis, in the central nervous system of MS patients. We systematically reviewed post-mortem histological studies evaluating myelin density, axonal loss, and gliosis using quantitative imaging in MS.
