peer reviewed / In this article, volcanic lakes that have shown sedimentological evidence of limnic eruptions (i.e., Nyos-type gas bursts) are reviewed. Indeed, to better assess “Nyos-type lakes” related hazards, paleolimnology offers a promising tool to trace the evidence of potential ancient Nyos-type gas explosions. After gas bursts from Lakes M...

peer reviewed / Currently, self-assembly peptides with hydrogel properties that are used in various applications are being chemically synthesized. These peptides not only have safety and environmental problems but are also expensive and cumbersome to prepare. The present study established a convenient and efficient method for producing plant-based ...
peer reviewed / The electron–phonon interaction is central to condensed matter, e.g. through electrical resistance, superconductivity or the formation of polarons, and has a strong impact on observables such as band gaps or optical spectra. The most common framework for band energy corrections is the Fröhlich model, which often agrees qualitatively...
Au coeur d’un tourbillon médiatique en Belgique depuis novembre 2023, les obscures molécules appelées PFSA ont déclenché un véritable scandale « politico-sanitaire ». Des analyses de laboratoire, menées de Bruxelles à la province deHainaut, viennent en effet de mettre en évidence des concentrations de PFAS dans les eaux de distribution « largement ...
editorial reviewed / The MAS-related genes (also known as MRGPRs) are a complex family of G protein-coupled receptors initially discovered in sensory neurons. Most of them are orphans, which means that they have no known validated endogenous ligands. Although MRGPRs bear great potential as drug targets, notably in itch and nociception, their study ...

peer reviewed / Understanding the behavior of elements under highly reduced conditions is fundamental to explain the differentiation, crust formation, and volatile budget of Mercury. Here we report experiments on a synthetic composition representative of the bulk silicate Mercury (BSM), at pressure up to 3 GPa, temperature up to 1720 °C, and under ...
